I was at a housewarming party last weekend, perturbed about a number of thoughts running rampantly through my brain. But having lots of fun with friends celebrating a new house/start/graduation for two of my good friends. So when my brilliant plan of messing with someone (heck, that’s how my friends and I roll) was destroyed by a silly error on my part, I may have *slightly* lashed out.
I believe my exact phrase to the poor offending party was “You have no idea the fury you have unleashed! I can seriously …

April 14, 1912
That night the temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean dropped near freezing and because it was two days before the new moon the sky was pitch black. Tiny pin-pricks of starlight barely provided the visibility necessary to navigate a multi-level cruise ship through the dangerous icy waters. And at 11:43 PM when the call came from the sailor on the mast that there was a massive iceberg ahead, there was no way to steer the “unsinkable” RMS Titanic around.

“We get nothing. We get a generation of women raised by their parents with no idea how to cook, how to dress and how to keep up your half of the arrangement.”Such was the language of a recent post on the Brazen Careerist site that has, at the time of this blog post, over 150 comments. The post, entitled “What Happened to Femininity” by Tyler Hurst was inflammatory to say the least. Tyler bemoaned the lack of girls in their summer clothes (sundresses and pony tails) perhaps a …

March Madness is just such a horrible time of year. Anytime I try to get anything done at my house my television somehow finds a way to turn itself on and creep over to a college basketball game. If it isn’t collegiate basketball, it’s a Spring Training game (preferably with the Red Sox, but beggars can’t be choosers!) Needless to say I spend a lot of time with the radio blaring to try and avoid the temptation.That being said today my roommate’s BF managed to finagle the television to the …
