As we grow older, we tend to get jaded. We worry, we stress. Life just doesn't seem as much fun anymore. Today, for the first time in my life a baby puked on me. Then said baby went poopy as I was holding her. Despite all that, correction, BECAUSE of it, today I haven't stopped smiling. Seeing the innocent eyes of curiosity darting across the room in amazement of the simplest things, I wanted nothing more than to switch places with her. We take a lot of things for granted. Today I learned a valuable lesson from the world's youngest teacher. Thank you Miss Arya Verma

You know, there was a point a number of years ago where we collectively made a decision. No one asked us our opinions, but we all said, ok let's go with it.

Someone decided that people would trade-off a small part of the viewing area on their televisions in order to know what the score and time situation was at ALL times during a game. Not just during breaks or transitions, but ALWAYS.

I think everyone was ok with this. It seems like a great trade-off. Nothing really happens up there anyway. Now, I can just flip through the channels and see the score whenever I want, without having to wait. Or if I'm doing something else, I can just glance up and check it.

At some point, though, it became common, to JUST RANDOMLY FUCKING TAKE THE SCORE BANNER OFF THE SCREEN SOMETIMES. I'm watching the GD finals game right now, while doing something on the computer.

I have looked up 3 separate times to check the score. ALL THREE FUCKING TIMES, it has been one of the times when they RANDOMLY* take the score off the screen.

WHY THE FUCK DO THEY DO THIS? WE AGREED TO GIVE UP THE SPACE FOR THE SCORE AT ALL TIMES. NOW WE ARE GETTING SHAFTED AND WE SHOULDN'T STAND FOR THIS.

*I'm pretty sure they do it during replays for some weird reason.

And yes, this does seriously piss me off. I really feel like they are going back on an agreement when they do this.

What's worse is not waking up during one and then waking to coughing blood that you swallowed from it and thinking you are dying

Yeah, I guess that would be pretty bad...

Coughing blood and the general feeling of blood in the throat are pretty disguting.

So a couple of years ago, they stopped making Chocolate Vanilla Creme Pop Tarts, which were my favorites. I was even looking up some info about them a couple of weeks ago. So, yesterday, I go to the store and see they have new Ice Creme Sandwich Pop Tarts, which look identical to the old Vanilla Creme ones. So I try one this morning and they have 25% less sugar and they just don't taste very good. Such disappointment after such hope

Wow- that really does belong on this page. This must be what insisting on constantly Twittering is like.

STFU people!

I know I am wearing a sweater, I know it is 90 degrees outside... this is 100% irrelevant, as my office is 63!

why would the temperature outside affect what I wear inside? morons.

Similar to why I get odd looks for wearing short sleeves in the winter. You keep the building at 80 degrees in the winter- if I could wear shorts, I would

I think so. And I enjoyed the process. It's fun when the salesmen think I'm a ditzy chick who doesn't know how to amortize a loan.

I do need a new nickname for my car though. The last one was nicknamed "Porky" as a play on my personalized license plate. The plate carries over, but I can't call this new car Porky also. She needs her own identity.

I'm currently stuck on "The Shagin Wagen". But that doesn't seem too original. Suggestions?

Tonight new episode of The Boondocks has just managed to send up Tyler Perry with a parody of the costume party from The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

That's funny, I don't care who you are.

On a related note, it drives me laugh when Sportscenter is showing an extended segment on a game, and they are building up and building up to what happened and it's going into overtime and this could be a huge shock.... and then the ticker at the bottom of the screen displays the result. Not much point in watching the rest of the segment then.

I understand the ticker is just a rotating thing and the effort it would take to make sure it didn't overlap with the game they are talking about wouldn't really be worth it. Still in the 21st century you would have thought somebody would have come up with a solution for this by now.

Even dumber is when the last second shot is in the air and as it's falling the graphic with the final score pops up.

Now you know how the druids felt.

I once temped for a woman who was a Wiccan and took the Summer Solstice off work as a holiday. I sat at her office and had to look at the picture of her large, pale fleshy husband dressed in some sort of wizard's robe.

It was an odd temp job, but I ended up hanging around for a couple of weeks.

Nothing like having to deal with carnies.

Woke up to find a ton of new HD channels in my lineup. MTV, VH1, Comedy Central, BET, Nick, and Spike.

Crazy thing is that I rarely venture out of the HD section in the lineup so I haven't really watched any of those channels in years. I can't remember the last time I turned on MTV.
