Hot Pockets: I Like Them…Stop Kidding Yourself, You Like Them Too

At this point, I think we know each other well enough for me to let you in on a little secret. It’s not something I’m proud of, but it’s something you should know. I like Hot Pockets.
More specifically, I like Lean Pockets…and everything Lean Pockets represent. This includes the little cardboard [...]

Honk If You Hate Bumper Stickers

I once had a crazy coworker who collected bumper stickers on the back of her red Toyota Camry. This woman had some real gems. Case and point:

In the company lot, her designated parking spot was right next to mine. This meant that the first thing I saw every morning on the walk from [...]

The PAX Peepshow

First off, apologies that its been awhile, dear readers. It won’t happen again. But what I have in store for you today should more than make up for my recent absence on the blogosphere. I hope you’re sitting down.
According to TVSquad, quite a few people in Phoenix were shocked and appalled last [...]

Life on a Vineyard…It’s a Bitch

Have a case of the Wednesdays? I sure as hell do. So to give us all a much-needed laugh, I’ve decided to post an honest to god segment from an Atlanta newscast that I’ve probably watched… ohhhh, about fifty times.  The video needs no introduction…it speaks for itself.

The Wheels on The Google Bus Go, “Aren’t you Jealous?”

I know I’ve written about this before…and maybe I’m a little bit obsessed…but I just can’t help it. Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, let’s all get a little green with envy hearing about the continued perks of being a Google employee.
The New York Times ran yet another article this past weekend about [...]

Why You Need to Hang out at a Mall Food Court…STAT

If you haven’t spent any time at a mall food court recently, I would definitely recommend doing so. It’s not like the old days, I can tell you that much. One main problem…no Orange Julius’ or Corn Dogs in sight. What the hell kind of a food court doesn’t have an Orange [...]

Why I Love This Job and All Things Sassy

“Wanted: A sassy young woman with intense creativity, a passion for life, a solid sense of humor, a love of wellness, and an unwavering need to contribute to something that will make a difference.”
This is the awesome job description that somehow made its way into my inbox today. When I first read it, I [...]

Starbucks Swag: Not Just For Celebrities!

Don’t say I didn’t warn you. The ‘Bucks will be giving out free cups of Joe next Thursday, March 15th, between 10am and 12 noon in celebration of their 2nd Annual Coffee Break. Yippee! Caffeine for Free!
Perhaps this “Coffee Break” is just what the ‘Bucks needs after a recent (and depressing) [...]

Watch Out Vera Wang, There’s a New Kid in Town…

Since I now have a big rock on the ring finger of my left hand, I think it’s time I start some wedding planning. One thing I’m looking forward to most is finding my perfect wedding dress. What will be my first bridal shop stop? Certainly not Vera Wang. [...]

What To Do if You Have Blue Balls in the Office

I once had a coworker who used an exercise ball as an office chair. When asked why he prefered sitting on a large, rotund ball rather than on an ergonomically correct piece of furniture, he’d answer, “I’m working on my core.”
And it’s not like he’d just sit on it. There were [...]
