Beware of Kids

I spent the morning researching my cable options. I think the best thing to do is to drop the family cable package and stick with the basic broadcasting channels which would save us $50 a month. Or we can get an antenna, but that’s gonna be a pain. Hulu+ has The X-Files which I have […]

And Next

Thanks for all the comments on my Day in the Life post! I love doing those, mostly because they’re so fun to read years later. That’s the kind of stuff you forget. I highly recommend writing some, even if you never post them. If you do post them, you should definitely add some embarrassing dancing […]

A Day in the Life of Lissy 2011

Ah, another Day in the Life and the 10th anniversary of my first one in late 2000. This was more or less a typical work day with the added benefit of Rekha’s amazing food. It’s also my Daddy’s birthday. Happy birthday! Friday, March 11th, 2011

Money -> Happy -> Food

Yesterday we received our bonuses and everyone at work was absolutely giddy. Well, except for some of the new people. My manager said a couple people went to him because they thought their was a problem with their paychecks. No, the government actually takes about 40%. Bastards. I wouldn’t mind if they were using it […]

Me and My Kindle

My Kindle arrived in the mail a month ago. I said I would read every night before bed. Have I?

Oh the Froyo

Samsung finally got its act together and has been handing out Froyo like, um … froyo. Sixth months late, my little Captivate finally has its update. It wasn’t quite worth waiting for, but there is a huge difference in terms of speed and features (yay flash!) Add to that the new market website, and it’s […]

Mediocrity

I watched The Social Network on Saturday while I was on call for the release. I gotta say, it made me feel pretty bad about myself. I normally think of myself as pretty smart and most people would agree. Am I smarter than the average person? Probably. Smart enough to become a billionaire? Unlikely. I […]

10 Years Ago

I met Jerry O’Connell. My written account of that day: On Wednesday, February 21, 2001, I met Jerry O’Connell!!! My favorite actor and the guy who I have been obsessed with since I was 10 (1995)! Not only that, but every moment of it was captured on film and aired on MTV’s Total Request Live! […]

I Dreamt of Strawberries

I had a great breakfast this morning. Overnight oats made with frozen banana, frozen strawberries, a little pumpkin, a little yogurt, almond milk and vanilla. Very yummy. Yesterday was Thanuja’s last day at work, which means I’m now officially the new Thanuja I guess. There was cake, of course, and cookies. I tried not to […]

Trying to Be Good

This was a bad, bad food week. I ate out every day the second half of this week. My mom also received gift baskets from work filled with fruit and cookies. Since I knew I would be eating out for dinner at night, I pretty much stuck to fruit and yogurt for breakfast and lunch. […]
