Bullet time!

~ Yesterday’s comments were pretty amazing- if you haven’t weighed in yet, I’d love to hear what you think. Saved by the Bell is involved.

~ My sister, who is young, talented, gorgeous, way funnier than me, and incredibly intelligent (she totally kicked my ass in the SATs), is in need of a job in the Boston area. If you know of any professional openings, please drop me a line here and I’ll put you in contact. Also, I will forever be in your debt and send you cookies like, at least twice a year. For a year.

~ My butt buddy Jenn, who is young, talented, gorgeous, lit-rally BUCKETS of fun, and too damn smart for her own good (in the “you’d-love-her-to-work-for-you” kinda way), is ALSO in need of a job… in D.C. My people in the District, rise up and come forth and all that! Shoot me an email and I will have her send you her (impressive) resume faster than a Democrat losing the key Senate seat in Massachusetts.

~ ZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!!

~ After the 20-hour headache that was putting together the (awesome-and-totally-worth-it!!!!!) Love Harder video, I have officially decided I need a Mac. Anyone selling a laptop? That they will promise on pain of my ripping them a new one on this blog is totally legit and will not die on me? BECAUSE IF ANOTHER COMPUTER DIES ON ME I WILL GO ALL STABBY ON A STRANGE CHILD and no one wants that.

~ I’ve got a guest post over at Middle Aged Waitress today, in which I recount my First Day Ever of being a waitress. Suffice to say, it did not go well…

~ Thought I’ve said it all over the interwebs, I have yet to officially say Thank You, so much, to everyone who voted for me in the 20SB Bootleg Awards. I walked away with more than my fair share, and I could not be more honored. I knew I had “Most Awkward” in the bag, but “Best Female”? “Funniest”? Y’all blow me the freak away. (More awesome news to come re: me and 20SB later this week… WOOT!)

~ I have a copy of TFLN to give away! The book is a comprisal of all the best “Texts No One Remembers Sending”… and it is one hawt mess. Just leave a comment here to be entered! (Winner announced Friday.)

You are such a gem to pimp out your friends that way!

And your sis must get her talents and good looks from you :O)

Awwww. I knew I liked you!

Now when you say “STABBY ON A STRANGE CHILD” does that imply that the child is, in some way, odd or simply that the child is someone who is not related to you or anyone you know? Would there be video of said stabby episode or would that be avoided to perhaps give a jury that ever so necessary “shadow of doubt”?

Sorry for the odd line of questioning. I’ve had 4 hours sleep for 2 nights now and am pretty sure if I try to sleep my blog will try to eat me. Or something.

It will. They thrive on it. Or something.

On terms of a Mac, if you do not find a used one and are forced to buy new, I strongly suggest going through Best Buy. They offer a wonderful insurance-esque program through geek squad and the Apple Store of which they do not care what happens, they’ll fix it. When I bought my MB Pro they told me I could even run it over and they’d just take it in and see what they could do. I recently busted it to hell and back and they kept it for almost 2 weeks but when I got it back almost every single cosmetic piece (case, glass, covers, etc) was brand new and even had that new computer smell! So yeah, just my friendly advice. It’s a great program!

Duly noted. Barring an enormous tax refund, I don’t think it’s in the cards, but man, would it be nice. Sighhhh…

5 Heather January 27, 2010 at 9:16 am

I loved yesterdays post. It’s so true! I feel like a lot of people think that they will start a blog and become famous. not the case. Blogging is a lot of work and like you said, the more you write, comment and put up posts the more likely people will be to read! I also love the zack and slater reference!

Thanks darlin. And I didn’t mean to write with the goal of being famous- just developing a bloggy network of your very own, yanno?

I was just accosted by Gay Boyfriend last night who is INSISTING that I switch to a Mac, and I’m all like, “I know NOTHING about this MAC business!” And here you are, wanting a Mac. Why? What makes them so special? Someone help me understand. AAAHHHHH!

In other news, I think we are all going to end up finding jobs this way in the future. So when I move to DC or something, I’m counting on you to find me some drunks to work with.

That? Should not be a problem.

I am totally looking on Ebay right now. I was scared, but you’ve convinced me. Worth a look, right?

I don ‘t have a laptop for sale, but I can tell you that I got a Mac from Best Buy and I highly recommend it. They have a best buy card that you can get that same day and you can charge the laptop to that card. Basically, there is no interest was 18 months and the minimal payments are pretty cheap. I figured out how much I have to pay each month to ensure it’s paid off by the 18 month mark and I won’t have to worry about insurance. It’s a pretty sweet deal and it’s worked out for me.

Ummm. So, I love you. And I just might do this on the way home.

ps is it too ironic to ask to be entered in the contest for the TFLN book, even though i only use my cell for actually making calls? :S

Macs are SO AWESOME and I cannot believe you made that video without one! It would probably take you half the time if you actually had a Mac. I just got mine a couple months ago… it was my present for like the next ten years. Or until I get a job that pays me more than $.05 an hour.

Also, this was me last week:

(916): I am spending my work day planning my weekend drinking schedule

(except not actually because I have an 860 number and I have yet to see any of my texts on the website but MAYBE they’re in the book haha)

I will SO be looking for it.

Um, can you be my agent??? Love that. I smell the job prospects coming. They smell good btw.

Baby dripping with oil and vinegar, you are awesome. Somehow, it really doesn’t seem that bad.

Yay for the wins!!! You so deserve it!

Fortunately, it was just the oil. The vinegar might have been more troublesome…

Thanks hon!

“All computers die. Not all computers really live.”

What.

Um.

Anyway.

Seriously, I love my Mac. It’s going strong on Year #5. Granted, I’ve had to replace the hard drive (THAT, was a tragic experience. I… I don’t want to talk about it.)… the CD drive doesn’t work anymore… the trackpad doesn’t work anymore… but really? For as much abuse as that lappy has taken, it’s a GREAT machine. Hands down, I recommend them.

That settles it. I’m going to Best Buy on Friday.

Sending some good luck vibes to both your sister and friend! I know it’s a tough job market out there, but I’m sure with a little luck and you on their sides, they can get hooked up with something terrific!

Congratulations on your many deserved awards!

Everyone is giving away a copy of this book! That just means more chances for me to win one and start the hours of laughing my ass off. :)

78 Mandy January 27, 2010 at 5:53 pm

I sure would love a Mac. They’re just so sleek and sexy. Where is a Best Buy when I need one?!

79 Em January 27, 2010 at 6:05 pm

I’m super excited about that book!

82 Dan January 27, 2010 at 7:24 pm

Ah yes, that old debate; do I get a Mac or do I go PC? Personally you’re nuts if you go for a Mac but I’m really only saying that because a good friend of mine likes to point out that his Mac never breaks down whereas I will be impressed if my PC can post this comment…..

87 Kristi A. January 27, 2010 at 9:09 pm

I lurve my mac. It, however, is not a laptop, but a Mini Mac desktop, but if I wanted, I could literally fit it in my purse. Aaaaand it is awesome, has wireless inside, 6 USB ports, one of those sleek cd/dvd burner drives, and if you don’t care too much about graphic imaging and photoshop, you can hook up a regular monitor to it. By itself, no keyboard, mouse, monitor, it is $600. But you could probably get those other things secondhand. (I found a keyboard/mouse combo online for $35.) And I have to say, it is one of the quietest things…while my PC laptop breathes heavily like it is walking up a hill.

Also, it came with the whole iLife package, which includes iPhoto, iMovie, Garage Band, etc. etc. Best thing ever. And if you want MS Office for it, I would recommend checking out OpenOffice.org. Practically the same interface as MS Office, but free, and compatible to save in any format.

Once you go Mac, you don’t go back!

Not a PC hater, but I switched last year and I have loved it.

I’m also crossing my fingers to win the book. Because… to go and buy it would just be too much work.

Are you in the book? And I think that’s so cute. A book of texts. What’s the next step? No more 160c limit? Then people can text books! And why 160c? Here’s why – http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2009/05/invented-text-messaging.html

Your sister should totally work for me. She could be my personal assistant/drinking buddy. I’d pay her in bagels.

I read your guest post. I waitressed at a Ruby Tuesday for little while. I know ALL of the cliches, and it’s fun seeing someone else who knows the terminology. If I said “8 top” to Husband, he’d be confused.
