Hello Truthful Tuesday
I don’t have anything intelligent to offer up today.
No deep truths either.
But there is something I’m willing to share.
I didn’t know I had dimples until a few months ago.
How did I not realize this?! How did no one ever tell me?! How can a girl look at her face everyday for 28 years and not notice an important facial characteristic like dimples?!
I have them in my general...

2. Cheap wine.

Ads Implant False Memories →
austinkleon:
Great little piece by Jonah Lehrer:
It’s the difference between a “Save” and the “Save As” function. Our memories are a “Save As”: They are files that get rewritten every time we remember them, which is why the more we remember something, the less accurate the memory becomes.
Hello marketing brainwashing.

Hello Again Universe
Again?
This will be the last emo rant/request/notice from me.
I do not appreciate breaking my car out of impound this morning.
I do not.
I do not I do not I do not.
You should know we are not on speaking terms.
That’s right, I’m giving you the silent treatment. Or maybe I should shame you to the corner until you can learn to use your words magical powers to not send me life...

Hello Tornado
Tweeting the storm while tornado sirens in my neighborhood are blaring is not fun.
Worrying about friends stuck at Rangers Stadium is not fun.
Not worrying about friends wearing bicycle helmets in their bathtub is kinda fun.
Racing to put my car under cover while being pelted with hail and soaked completely through is not fun.
Cable going out is not fun.
Thank you, Texas weather.

Hello Universe
I thought we talked about this.
When I said windfall I didn’t mean jacking my rent so high I have to move next month.
Shit.
At least there’s the Mavs game at The Flying Saucer.
And cheese fries.
