Hey, guys! How was everyone’s day today? We know that today was perfect for at least two people (pictured). Those guys are doing great, both of them. Look at the two of them! Happy as a couple of clams. Where are they going? It doesn’t matter! Live in the moment. It’s the airplane, not the destination. Not that their perfect days are perfect in the same way or for the same reasons. On the left, we see a woman who is just enjoying the funny twists and turns that you never see coming. On the right, we see a man who, well, we don’t know what he is enjoying, but whatever it is, he’s enjoying a lot of it. It just goes to show you that there are lots of paths to happiness and contentment and we all have to find our own. For some of us, it is enough simply to sit down next to a normal human being who looks healthy and great and strike up a conversation about wigs and the current German castle real estate market. For others, we put on our best hospital smock and stumble onto another airplane that we don’t even know where it is going but we’ll make sure to ask our assistant in the back of the chauffeured town car on the way to some nice hotel just as soon as we get there, and that is enough. So? How/which was it?! (Image via Reddit.)

I WISH I felt like Nicholas in this picture. I feel like a block of ice because my building still thinks its summer. I’ve been pouring hot cups of water and holding them to warm up my hands all day.
My day was good. This made it better.

So between Topknot, Facetaco, and badideajeans, did I miss a memo about changing avatars?
Yes.
Don’t give in! I can’t keep anyone straight anymore! I know you all by pictures, not names!
Girl, you mad fine. Hit me up when you come to Chicago.
Uhhh… you guys. How do you delete comment history????
Not meant to be a reply…or is it?

i know this has already been pointed out on twitter, but:
kind of a dick move if you ask me. the dude’s just trying to fly home and someone was like “can I get a picture?” maybe didnt even ask, was just like “rage-cage” **SNAP**
i’ve looked like that on a plane before. probably worse. let he who hasn’t cast the first stone.
Oh COME ON!! How often does a regular person have the opportunity TO GET IN THE CAGE???
(Said in Nic Cage whisper-screaming.)
This being said, if this were me, I would be drunker-looking than my main man Nic Cage because I would have ALL THE BLOODY MARYS WITH THIS MAN!!!!
I have a new life goal. I’m going to steal the Declaration
exchange faces with John Trav steal souls for the dev get drunk with Nic Cage.NOOOO!!! I crossed out the wrong part.
Me right now:
yeah, having a good time and a conversation – being a person – is way different than snapping a picture and throwing it on the internet.
This is high praise.
(Since you assume I wouldn’t take a pic with him after 4-5 bloody marys… BECAUSE DAMN STRAIGHT I WILL BE. Though I wouldn’t post it on the Internet or at least not a high-trafficked site because that’s kind of annoying.)
My day was garbage! I had a job interview this morning with an awful horrifying monster of a woman who was very mean and belittled me through the whole thing, then came to work to find out I won’t be getting paid for the extra 2 hours I worked yesterday (the woman who is meant to be in at 5 to cover the evenings had to take her kid to the hospital so I stayed until she got here and it was crazy busy) because the company has a policy that you need to clear overtime with head office 24 hours in advance or you won’t be paid for it. My boss was in a shit mood today because she is quitting smoking and just decided to go vegan (even though I don’t think she’s ever had a meal in her life that did not involve pork before this week) and kept yelling at me for all of her mistakes. And I just started my period 2 days early and thank goodness I keep tampons at my desk. I want to eat all of the chocolate in the whole world and snuggle up with Catticus Maximus and have some large man with a soothing deep voice make me tea and read to me. Instead I work until 8 because I had to take the morning off to get treated like a child by a woman you could not pay me a million dollars to accept a job from.
Poor thing! Lets think of some way to get back at the mean lady.
If I catch the fairies overfeeding my cat and spilling food on my clothes I can send them her way I suppose.
Is there a yelp for bad jobs/bosses/interviewers? There should be.
glassdoor or linkedin
Wait… you didn’t mention all the little earthquakes in Montreal!! Are you feeling them? Are they messing with stuff?
The one woke me up the night I came home to The Great Apartment Mystery! It felt like the apt was lifted up and dropped and I was like “yup, definitely aliens”
I’m not kidding — I read about the quakes and assumed they were THE REAL CAUSE of your mystery. Maybe it’s because I’ve seen a lot of Ancient Aliens, but I’d like to see someone prove that earthquakes / alien cats are NOT why you are finding odd surprises…
“COME ON!! Let’s try to prove that ancient travelers WEREN’T INVOLVED!! TIME TRAVEL AND ALIENS… COME ON!!!” — me (doing my Nic Cage)
If you’re not at least given comp time, I’d adopt a stealthy, backdoor exit plan for the rest of my days there. I currently switch up my entrance and exit plans on a random pattern throughout the day so absolutely no one knows where or when to expect my sudden, unexpected OH! HEYYYYYS! sprinkled throughout the day. Keep them on their feet: Keep them low on available schedule cover-uppers. Side-note: Mostly everyone thinks I’m super anti-social but NOPE..just stead-fastly against working OT without the actual OT pay. Oh! and for the cunty interviewer..passive-aggression is a THING for a reason. Next time (or even in a follow-up email) go for the gold in backhanded compliments about their specific position and how you’re impressed they’re *now allowed/trusted to evaluate candidates.” It’s 1 part complimentary and 2 parts judmental about their status in the organization. Also, aiming for a 2:1 ratio of equaling belitting comments to the interviewer works well. That’s more of a going out blazing style of interview but F-it. That bitch wasn’t hiring you anyway :-/ Might as well giver her an enduring self-esteem complex on your way out..or more realistically, a more faceted S-E complex because she didn’t become a monster out of nowhere..ehh..tl:dr If they’re a bitch, smile as pleasantly as possible and be the biggest, subtle cuntress as possible. Oh! Last thing I promise: If she has pics of her kids, make a point to say “Ohhh! they’re SOOO..” and let that dropped sentence dwell in her consciousness for a long, long time trying to figure if you were ending that sentence positively or bitchely..I’m evil, I know. But I beat self-important authoritative figures at their own game like a BOSS.

It got really great when I clicked through a slideshow on sweater trends and found this:
Not even kidding. This is the url: http://www.refinery29.com/pullover. Kelly, you are so ahead of the curve.
Wait, also though, I was going to comment that your bananas are cuter than hers, but I looked at the photo and is this in fact your exact sweater??
http://www.refinery29.com/pullover/slideshow#slide-7 <– THIS SWEATER COSTS SIX HUNDRED AND FORTY ONE AMERICAN DOLLARS????? HAS NOBODY EVER HEARD OF A SECOND HAND STORE???
Ohhh THAT sweater. The one that looks like something I would have made fun of in 6th grade and isn’t even cashmere (30% nylon??). Not Kelly’s sweater, which is super cute. PHEW.
DID YOU NOT HEAR THAT GRAPHIC SWEATSHIRTS ARE THE RAGE RIGHT NOW????????????????
As a molecular biologist, my day was excellent.
Looks like it’s bored.
Steve Winwood’s new avatar?
My roommate was supposed to make sushi with me tonight, but she just canceled. On the bright side, I remembered I had a $5 starbucks giftcard which meant I got to get a moca fo free, except the woman screwed it up 3 times and probably spit in it. My stomach hurts a bit, but it’s nice out so my bike ride home will be good.
So everything is neutral i suppose.
One hell of a ride.
1.they’re filming that show Chicago Fire in my alley. I went out to take out the garbage this morning and I was surrounded by fire engines, police cars and amobulances. I think there was a dude carrying a crash test-looking dummy too.
2.My dog somehow pooped a poo the size of her torso. http://twitpic.com/b35hvi/full
3.I went for a 3.14 mile run. I try running about 3.11 miles every other day. It’s dumb but it makes me happy.
4.I’m trying to get into drinking tea instead of Redbull. Anyone have any suggestions? A link to something would be nice.
5. Would you rather wear someone’s jeans that they’ve worn for a week without washing or a t-shirt that they’ve worn for a week without washing?
6. I’m thinking about buying my first Mac laptop. Which one should I buy?
7. Mark Sanchez’es passer rating during this past weekend’s game was 66.6. The Jets went with him instead of Tebow when they needed a comeback. They lost.
8. Why do ALL phone commercials have to be so irritating?
4. I am doing the same thing w/espresso!! Get a high-caffeine English Breakfast and make sure that it isn’t secretly decaffeinated like the crap I had this morning. Earl Grey is fine, but I’ve noticed it doesn’t do much. (Also black tea is really good for your gums for some really random reason). Go to, say, Whole Foods and try the $5-$6 boxes as the better the tea, the better the tea experience (I thought this was tea-propaganda from the tea lobby but it is not) — and odds are, you won’t let it steep long enough to get the caffeine you want/need. So higher caffeine, easier the switch. You could also try tea leaves and an infuser but I don’t have the patience for that crap. Choice and Tazo are pretty good, but there are better ones. Stay away from Celestial Seasonings and Trader Joe’s teas as they are garbage. GARBAGE!
5. I would wear my own clothes.
6. Get the 17″ retina display. I think it starts at $2800??? I’m just kidding, don’t get a Mac. I got an HP Probook the other week and it’s great. Same specs, better warranty and it was pretty cheap. Plus I got the three-year spill warranty, which is great for an accident prone person like myself who breaks laptops constantly.
1. I keep seeing pop up ads for this and thinking there was another giant fire in Chicago.
2. I like your dog’s jacket.
4. Maybe try some teas with more flavour like Chai or vanilla or something, and use honey instead of sugar. I find it goes with the “tea” taste better. Also, if you take it with milk, put the milk in before the hot water to keep it from getting scalded.
5. Jeans because it seems like they’d be less sweaty, although ass sweat is for sure grosser than torso sweat.
Running 3.14 miles sounds like the perfect reason to eat an entire pie.
5. jeans. wouldn’t want BO pits from the t-shirt.
6. Get a refurbished 15″ macbook pro. The new ones don’t impress me (retina display etc), but I have one from 2 years ago and it’s great. I had a macbook for 4 years that I gave to my sister. She refurbished it for $200 through the Mac store and it’s still going strong after another 2 years. Basically, yes they are expensive but they last pretty long. also, i just like the operating system. Mind you, I’m using it to run Adobe Creative Suite (hello 100+ page book in Indesign and movies in Premier) so I needed Pro. If you’re not doing fancy things with it, an Air is fine as are many PCs.
I just found out that the site I’ve been launching for two weeks just got created backwards so I’m going to spend my whole weekend unpublishing about 150 pages (each a 4-step process) then republishing them. But it’s going to be rainy and I just got some of my wine from my wine club delivered and I got a bunch of fire wood… So… really not *that* bad, I guess. (Except that they delivered the wrong stuff and now I have a bunch of wine I don’t like as much as other stuff and that’s kind of a silly problem but still… ugh, stupid batch Chardonnay.* Gross!!)
*worse than Paltrow = me.
all my days have been crap since graduating from college in june with a degree in *sigh* architecture
that being said, wasn’t Biden great?
I’m warning you now I’m probably going to post this pic several times today, but yeah, Biden’s probably having a better morning than this guy:
lol is this muthafucka flying coach?!?
I like to believe that Cage looks like that 24/7, until he’s making a movie. Then it’s all adderall, all the time. Y’all.
