Is it okay to follow someone I'm thinking about...
Probably not, since I have previously tweeted I’m afraid of not getting the job I want because my twitter is too boring…
On the other hand, I may benefit from the fact that most of my tweets are, “Hey! I’m in lab!”

Things that have ruined everything else for me:
Sabra hummus, fage yogurt, dr. Kracker crackers. They cost twice as much as everything else, but so good! So long savings!
On a related note, do people use the word yuppie anymore? Also, if I coined the phrase yipster, would that be enough to get me a guest blog post somewhere?
Whatever guys, I’m drinking some Pinot noir and watching my stories on my first night off in months, no...

Lately I’ve needed something besides music while I make meals, clean the house, demolish rooms in my house, etc. As my fav, This American Life, has been thoroughly exhausted, I’m looking for new recommendations.

The calculator shows where your income stands on the wide range of the 99%. An annual salary above $506,000 puts you in the top 1%, while you need to make less than $2,500 a year to be in the bottom 1%. Where do you stand?
I was just wondering if this calculator was out there. I am the 70%!

Haircut
I’m cutting all of my hair off this week.
I’ve been growing it out roughly since I started grad school, so almost a full four years. I’ve been pretty predictable when it comes to drastic hair changes. Every four years on I get the urge to chop off all my luscious locks. In 8th grade I snuck out to the Supercuts because my mom usually cut my hair and didn’t want to cut...

I forgot my wallet...
I forgot my wallet today and didn’t bring lunch.
So I found my laundry quarters in the bottom of my bag and bought a roast beef sandwich from the vending machine.
It was delicious and came with Grey Poupon.
TAKE THAT WORLD! Turns out my life isn’t that sad and pathetic!
