remember in the early days of websites, people would add flying gifs and other objects to their pages? you could give the visitor's mouse a trail of stars, or letters that spelled out a word or phrase if it sat long enough. snowflakes would rain from the top of the page...
apparently when society decided all those effects were just plain annoying, the effects didn't go to die.... they went to tumblr.
i must be too old to "get" tumblr, but once in a while i'll be sent a link to a page from there. trying to figure out who tumbled what, and what's a re-tumbl, (or the correct tumblr-terminology) gives me a headache. but when i click into a page with those wonderful Y2K effects, that's when i X-out in frustration, with a migraine.

Chocolate Chip, Please.
A weight-loss commercial just came on the radio:
not because of weight loss, but because i heard the word muffin.
"attention all women with a muffin top"i immediately started paying attention.

Seeing as m2 is on the road, buying g-d knows what sort of animal parts, I'm sitting here in pajamas celebrating with a slurpee and episodes of Disney shows on Netflix.... Can i get some sympathy/well wishes?!

I've Got Gadgets and Gizmos A Plenty...
The holiday season landed me with some extra cash in my pocket. Which went straight into the bank. To pay the bills.
M2 says to spend it on something fun.
Having heat is fun. And a roof over our heads. And groceries.
Plus it's not enough for new hair ;)
But seriously, what would you buy with some extra spending money?

Irony
We had a holiday party at work. They officially call it a holiday party these days but everyone slips up and says "christmas party."
Because the only Holiday they decorated for was Christmas, and the food was all non-kosher, I made some dreidel cookies. I decorated the plate with some actual dreidels and set them out with the rest of the food.
About 20 minutes into the party I noticed a table of girls playing with the dreidels, trying to spin them right side up and upside down and trying to hit the other dreidels with their own.
The ironic part? The girl having the most fun playing was a GREEK.

Not Frumspeak
That awkward moment in a verbal conversation where english words sound like frumspeak
Me: so will you have to make phone calls and send emails to them?
M2: nope, the students will do that for me
Me: look at you, with your minions!
Me: um, that was minions. not minyans.
Me: with an 'o' not a 'y'
