She's looking for a life bigger than she'll find.

*If you haven't seen the movie Once yet, you should.  Especially if you enjoy the music of a Mr. Damien Rice.  Trust me.  It's good and the music is amazing.  I got it as a Christmas present from my old roommate Meg so if anyone wants to borrow it, I'd be more than glad to lend it to you.

  I always claimed to be 100% okay with being ADD, but most the time that was far from true.  Growing up seeing stacks of "How to Deal with Raising Your ADD Child" and "What To Do As the Parent of ADD Children", I kind of felt like it was this curse that fell upon my sister and me.  But recently I wanted to learn more.  Until looking into it, I never realized just how many traits of ADD (besides the inability to focus) I have.  Reading this SHOCKED me.  There isn't a thing on this list I haven't thought or felt about myself.  I didn't post explainations so a lot of it sounds easily applicable to everyone, but I think a lot of it has to do with how these traits come together or conflict with one another.  But I thought I'd put up this little list just for the hell of it.

Positive ADD Traits

Misunderstanding: Many children and adults with ADD often feel misunderstood. Much of this has to do with non-ADD people not understanding ADD. Many people don't believe ADD exists at all. There are also many others that label ADD as a disability or disorder. Yes, we as people with ADD may think differently than non-ADD people, but that really does not make us disabled..

Focusing: People with ADD have trouble focusing on one thing at time. The non-ADD world sees this as a problem. It can in fact be a problem when an a person with ADD is reading a book that really doesn't interest him or her. Many of us really like the fact that were are able to do 5 things at once. While many non-ADD people can't "walk and chew gum at the same time". People with ADD can do that and so much more...

Organizing: Some people with ADD appear to be very disorganized. Many times that is just an outside appearance. We may not have things in neat files or everything in a spot. Yet, we can usually locate things that are important to us. It's just that since so many things are not important to us at every moment things do get misplaced. For instance when the phone rings it's not import to us at that moment where we put our cars keys. So, the keys usually get thrown down any where...

Time: Time can be an enemy to people with ADD. It's almost as if it's a foreign concept to us. This can lead to many problems in the non-ADD world. Bills don't get paid on time, assignments aren't handed in, we are late for appointments. Time just doesn't make sense to us at times...

Completing Tasks: This may be one of the largest problems for children and adults with ADD. The problems above make it hard for us to complete things. Also, many people with ADD don't ever see any things as completely finished. We almost always have something more to add. It's hard for us to figure our what is acceptable as finished to the non-ADD world when nothing is really ever finished to us...

for my friends. i love you all and your creativity.

So my dad has this friend who owns a chain of ice cream shops and get this- he asked my dad to run the one he'll soon be opening on one of the Palm Tree Islands in Dubai!!  Isn't that insane?!?!  Of course my dad, being the party pooper that he is, probably said no (I didn't even bother to ask).  But had he actually taken the job, I could go live here...

I mean, sure, there's a war going on close by.  But the place will be so jam packed with the world's wealthiest, it's got to stay safe for at least a little while. Besides, living in a place like that is totally worth the risk.

I am officially the only girl in my apartment who is not married or engaged.  Weird.  


But trust me, I am NOT complaining.

If you love Maryland, you've gotta check out this out.

Kelly: I'm going to give my kids normal names.
Me: I'm not. I'm going to name one Igneous Fly.
Kelly: As in igneous rocks?
Me: Yeah.
Kelly: Well, then I'm going to name mine Sedimentary.
Katie: Then I'm naming mine Metamorphic!
Me: Awesome. Then all our kids can hang out together...and get stoned.
Katie: YEAH!

Just a thought for the next theme party: "Thank god I'm not..." Everyone just dresses as someone they're really siked that they aren't.

Some people watch tv when they get bored...my sister makes tv.




haha. She is going to kill me for posting this. But the face at the end of the sour countdown was just too damn good.

Zach Braff's character sums up the majority of my love life in this clip....especially the last 23 seconds.

Collegehumor.com loves Paul.

I don't even know what to say other than that you MUST watch this.

Katie and I are tired of not being able to go to dirty shops because of the creepy old men that work them and or linger at each and every one.

So we've decided we are going to open our own porn store, just for females.  We're going to call it  THE MENSTRUAL CYCLE (to keep the boys out) and our slogan is going to be "We know sex.  Period."  We'll open it in a college town and eventually be the little wise, old ladies/ mentors who run the porn store.   Our little store will smell amazing, be hilarious and just an all around awesome place where girls can feel completely comfortable while stocking up on things for their every fantasy and fetish.

Oh,  and you'll know its our store by the charming penis wind chimes with clanging testicles.

So I'm taking a semi-spontaneous trip to Manhattan to visit Erin.  Its my first real opportunity to be ridiculous since summer AND my summer class AND work started. 

I promise to come back with lots of good stories and vow to be completely ridiculous, and not in just the drunk sense.

Wish me luck.

Bhaha. I love when Collegehumor.com posts the pictures I send in.

Operation 'Take Risks and For God's Sake Grow Some Balls' is back in effect as of today.





I think I'm going to throw up.

"dude..i say bang him..but make it your own..hhahahaha..throw him down and be on top."

Love this advice...even though the question had nothing to do with sex...

Some of you may appreciate the Flight of the Conchords.

Saw this on Oprah.

The puppy, Faith, only has her back two legs.

In order to live, her owners had to teach her to walk like a human.

This is one of the best things I've ever seen...a little weird, but amazing.
