Girls in Tech

I just attended an amazing panel with women entrepreneurs called Girls in Tech.  Now, I usually don’t tout PR professionals outside of SHIFT. (To be smug, we do some amazing work.  That’s out of my mouth, not my company’s.)  But Adriana @ Ogilvy did an amazing job organizing the event, which was hosted by Orrick Law [...]

Silly Men: Episode 457

In order to maintain anonymity and keep this relatively brief, here’s a three line synopsis of Friday and why men are silly.

I want to take my time getting into my next relationship.  If the nice-ex didn’t teach me patience, the asshole certainly did.
He wanted to either move forward or just be friends, even though he [...]

New Favorite Game:

I know it’s as we speak spreading like Wildfire on Tumblr, but I wanted to introduce this to everyone.
It’s a great way to practice your typing skills, while putting a bit of competition in.

A Distressed Leather Bag that Will Make Me Happy Forever!

30 Second Hillary, Barack Analysis

They’re policies really aren’t that different (but then, were any from past Democratic nominees?).
The only major difference between Clinton and Obama is leadership style, at least that’s what my friend TB and I decided.  That’s why he likes Barack, and I back Hillary.

Barack has that natural charm that can bring people together and make them [...]

Best Buy?

Almost.
I know lots of people have had issues with BestBuy in the past.  Heck, they seem to make regular appearances on the Consumerist blog.  But my online experience, thus far, has been pretty damn good.

Happen to spot coupon on Bargainist feed of Google Reader for $5 DVDs.

Time: like 5 seconds?

Decide that I should follow the [...]

Why is cheating so bad when it feels so good?

Yes, I said it.  I cheated.
And I didn’t even know I was doing it until after the fact.  Per my post on being technology dependent, I decided to do a little experiment and see if I can’t stay offline and start enjoying the real life more.  The rules are in the post linked above.
Friday went [...]

Being Obsessive

I can’t get over how much I love this picture of me… cuz I really don’t look my best today, but you can’t tell w/ a lil Japanese magic:

Also, if you look to the upper left behind my head, there’s a caricature of me.  You can see it here, but it looks really amazing in [...]
