I PASSED THE ILLINOIS BAR EXAM! :D Thank goodness! I don’t mean any offense to second-time takers, nor do I mean to hurt anyone’s feelings, but I’m SO glad I passed on my first try. I was so convinced I’d failed it, that a day after the exam I was mentally composing the inevitable email [...]

Man, my hiatus kind of exploded, didn’t it? As most of you know, I took a hiatus in January or something as I prepared to take the IL Bar exam for the first time. Welp, I took the IL Bar exam, and I hope it was my last time. (I have a bad feeling, though, [...]
Well, this is awkward.

Last week, I was obscenely busy. And I’ve spent most of this week so far hopped up on various pain meds – whichever pills I can shove into my mouth, really, since I’m not all that picky – and see no reason for any of this changing before Friday. (Girl talk: cramps. Bad ones. As [...]

I did the 10 Days of You challenge a while back and a bunch of other people did the same on their pages, and we all linked back and forth and it was cute and fun and distracting and we all got to know a few cute things about each other. So here’s another post, [...]
No one lets me watch The Simpsons anymore

Here’s the deal. I have like 8 seasons of the Simpsons. The box sets sit by my TV and whenever I’m happy or sad or bored or sick I pop in a disc and sit down and enjoy. My brother is sick of the Simpsons (he NEVER wants to watch them), and my parents hate [...]

:| That’s right. It is my birthday. I never really make a fuss about my birthday, mostly because several years ago I was so totally over them and I made everyone promise there would be no fuss, no attention, no cake, no presents, nothing. And everyone followed my commands and I was quite happy for [...]
Ramadan Mubarak!
Posted in Coffee, Tea, Me, Islam/Culture on July 31, 2011 | 1 Comment »
If you’re looking at the worldwide trending topics on Twitter right now and you see that phrase and have no idea what it means, I have bad news for you: it’s Creeping Shariah in action. Nah, I’m kidding (FOX News disagrees). Ramadan Mubarak means “Ramadan Congrats,” basically. Muslims worldwide are using the phrase to wish [...]

A Mildly Amusing Yoga Story
Posted in Coffee, Tea, Me on April 26, 2011 | 32 Comments »
So I was talking to Andy today, and the topic of yoga came up. I think he was saying that if I did yoga, I would be flexible enough to do … something. I don’t remember what. I only pay attention to like 14% of what that kid says. Any more is hazardous to my [...]
