Overly dramatic reactions

Once in a while I surprise myself with my ridiculousness. My reactions to even basic things are overly dramatic. Today, I was thankful that I'm not the only one.

Thanks, Deyhana! It's good to know I'm not the only one!

Spring has sprung... or HAS it?

This morning, I left for work after it had been snowing and freezing raining all night.

(Start shoveling montage.)

For those of you who remember Snowpocalypse 2011, like two months ago, we got like 10" of snow in a day and it was like Y2K all over again. As if the world was ending... But today's snow was way worse than that. We had about 5" of snow in our driveway, covering a sheen of ice and covered in a sheen of ice. At least with Snowpacolypse I could get out of my driveway. Granted I seem to be the only person who had any problems today but I still thought it was ridiculous. Super wet and heavy snow, plus ice? That's way more of a pain than the Snowpacolypse stuff.

But shoveling wasn't so bad, besides heavy. It wasn't frigidly cold out and the breeze was just right. :)

Please block of the next dozen years of your calendar.

Last month at work, we rearranged about 40 cabinets, uncovering 3 or 4 different colors of paint and scratching up the floors pretty badly. I decided to put a fresh coat of paint down last Friday. It took longer than I thought, but in the middle of it, I had a LOL moment.

Uh????  It was popping up that it conflicted with other things in my schedule (imagine that!) and that I sent it to a "group."

Oh great... Who did I send it to?

Fortunately, I only invited two people to my event. Still, this is a good reminder of the things that can happen when you don't lock the screen of your touch-screen phone before putting it in your pocket.

 

I may not have butt-dialed anyone and been embarrassed that way, but I think it's worse when that

I butt-scheduled this "WwwwwwOow" event 
in the Brussels time zone

that lasted 12 years, 8 months, and a day,

and sent it to a group as an invitation.

Oy.

I'd rather have cake but...

Today is 3/14-- you know what that means, dweeby bloggerazzi?

It's PI DAY!!! Yaaaayyyyy!!!!

The single funniest moment in my life

**NOTE: Sorry guys, this one is not child-friendly.**


This post in honor of the my former boss's birthday: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JEFF!!

If you want to know what he's talking about, this is the episode.

Daydreaming

Class starts in about 45 minutes. All my 8,000 papers have officially been submitted. This is what I'm thinking:

We aren't in Tuesday today, but Wednesday is cancelled.

This was me last week.

This is me today (Monday.)

As you may have learned, I have this horrible affliction called "grad school." It's destroyed me.

I used to be like this.

But then one day, I decided I didn't have enough debt and I had too much time and happiness in my life, so I thought it would be cool to get my Masters degree.

This happened.

At first, professors lulled me into a false sense of security. I knew more than they were teaching, assignments were a joke-- grad school was easy!

But then they realized what they were doing.

They put their evil forces together, just like in that Batman movie where Chris O'Donnell played hot Robin, only I have no hot Robin. I have these guys:

(Love you guys!)

Once Evil united, I was pretty much screwed. It went like this:

Hence:

You'll see a lot of that blank expression, I think.

Oh, and because I don't think my picture was clear enough, here's a breakdown of my life before:
