victory
I won a little argument with editors this week. Score.
huh?
We have had three candidates for J302 give lectures in the past two weeks of class. How is it that there are people actually interested in this job?
coming soon
My website. Just thought I'd tempt you with that thought.
"live!"
Anyone else excited about West Wing tonight?

mike won!
It was totally because I wore my Mizzou Journalism t-shirt. Question: will he finish this semester????
addendum
$95K starting salary right out of college?!?!?! And to think that I'm hoping for a $5/hr internship this summer.

It's a half-hour into the ESPN Dream Job Final Four and our own Mike Hall is showing everyone up. In a desperate attempt to have a connection to fame, I feel like I can "claim" Mike because I chilled with him during Solving Annoying Problems last fall. (Read: I laughed at his and Wyrych's jokes and said maybe two words to him.) Go get 'em, tiger.

Is it possible for applesauce to ferment? Mine tastes a little funky.
The Lion's Choice sign went up over the former Osama's coffee shop last week. What is happening to this town? At least it's not Wal-Mart.
A full day of work and all I get to do is stuff envelopes? You're kidding.

why i like it when my boss is gone
I get to play Guster while I work.
bring on spring
I'm wearing a tank top today. Granted, I'm wearing a light jacket over it, but it's a tank top nonetheless. Last night, I left the porch light on to welcome me home after finishing some stuff at Vox. When I returned, there were bugs everywhere the light touched. Gross. But I'm not complaining. I'll take bugs if it means i can wear tank tops.
random
My roommate is trying to kill her fish.
I love my weekly talks with Meh-gen.
I bought a new "grown-up" wallet. It's my pledge to myself to get my finances in order.
Cecilia gets here this evening.
I could listen to the new Usher song all day. Just makes me wanna move. He is quite attractive in the video, too. yum.
movies
How could I have forgotten that Anne and I watched Amelie? That was one of the missing movies. The other was Under the Tuscan Sun. A little more understandable why I forgot that one.

Jack the Mac is back
And better than ever, with 120 GB hard drive, twice the memory, and (drum roll please) OS X. The even more fabulous thing is that the IT guy left Quark and PhotoShop.
hearing things
I've become hyper-sensitive to noises while in the car since the ball joints on my rear wheels decided to give out two weeks ago. Charlie seems to wheeze, whine and screech in protest a bit too much. So instead, I crank up the stereo.
tastes like summertime
I ate sunflower seeds on my drive from Manhattan to Columbia today.
spotless mind
I saw three movies this weekend and for the life of me can't remember one of them. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was one; Intolerable Cruelty was another. Now, what was the third? Last weekend, I watched About a Boy, Matchstick Men, and...blanking on the third again. They must not have been that interesting.

a bunch o' blarney
Yesterday: happy birthday(s) to S@r@h Pr*tzm@n and M@rk *zm@k. (And happy Bailey's day to everyone else.) We spent our St. Patty's Night chilling at Boone Tavern. There we ran into Tuttle's Charlie, who was more than willing to fill us in on the story of "What really happened the night of the Heidelberg fire." (No, it wasn't a set-up by the owner.)
more good news
Jack the Mac should be fixed by tomorrow.
the bad news
They can't replace my bootlegged copy of Quark and I can't find my PhotoShop discs.
funny lines in my inbox
Other than that, Ive been working on my senior thesis and going completely insane. YAAAAAAY!
But seriously- i just celebrated my 6-month anniversary (longest relationship ever) with a guy named Aaron. He's 28, from Kansas City, he's a musician and he looks like Buddy Holly/ Woody Allen/ an alien.
Sounds like a great plan with not too much planning, and that's usually the best plans.
Sara and Erica, I hope you guys have a great time in New York. Tell Pete at Glamour I said "hi" and "I want a job."
i got the feeling that my imagination is currently trapped in a moldy can of miller light that has been rolling around on the floor of somebody's rusty volvo for a couple of weeks.
As if 310 wasn't bad enough, now I have to memorialize it in a graduation portfolio. Ewww.
it's not like you're dating David. If you were, I'm sure I'd have heard by now. Because a lot would have to happen for that to be the case...
X-cultural is tomorrow at 2. That is when all the fun begins.
Has Constance forgiven me yet for misplacing her address? I felt awful. I swear I had it memorized. Very, very surprised to figure out I’d told the cab driver to take me to Prada. Clearly, they won’t have any copies of speeches waiting for me in there.

social graces
Where does one look when talking to someone with a lazy eye? Do you just look at their nose?

MANHATTAN, KS -- Mom is doing well. Thanks for your concern and prayers.
i got my first official rejection letter yesterday
At least National Geographic responds to me. I came away from NY with a stack of business cards and a list of magazines that were practically begging us to email them for information about internships. The only response I got was from Esquire, saying they don't do internships. Is that what they mean by the New York attitude, lying to innocent students?* I kinda liked getting my first real rejection letter. You have to be rejected before you find what fits, so I feel like the ball is rolling. (roll, ball, roll!)
*For the record, Esquire was the only magazine that didn't beg us to email them. I did that on my own initiative.
