Early Happy St. Paddy’s Day

Posted by Cynical Sarah on March 10, 2010

Thanks to JibJab and serious boredom, I sent my husband this early St. Patrick’s Day e-card. It was too good for just one person to see, so now y’all can be entertained too.
The Irish Step
It’s a video e-card. Fun for all ages!

Avoidance Got My Fridge Clean

Posted by Cynical Sarah on March 9, 2010

I was lacking in inspiration for things to do or for things to possibly write about on Monday, so I settled on reading from a textbook that I’ll be getting to know over the next few weeks for a project management course I’m taking.

The class starts Thursday – I made it to Page 4 of the book before I was inspired to do anything but read that thing.

Review: Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson

Posted by Cynical Sarah on March 8, 2010

Cryptonomicon is a book my husband picked up a while ago. I discovered it on our dusty bookshelf and decided to give it a look.

This book is 1,130 pages long, and I do mean long. Only through sheer will did I make it through the first 200-300 pages to finally get to the point where I was hooked and needed to see how the rest of the story was going to play out. (I’m pretty sure Troy didn’t make it to that point. A dog-eared Page 263 marks where he gave up.)

Professional Purse

Posted by Cynical Sarah on March 6, 2010

After spending a large chunk of Thursday working on job applications, I couldn’t help but wonder what else I could be doing to improve my chances of eventually finding a job.

Or you could say I was wondering what I’m doing wrong that I haven’t been offered a job yet.

Haiku for You!

Posted by Cynical Sarah on March 5, 2010

You never know when inspiration is going to strike. This week it struck me in haiku form.

Series Commitment Challenged

Posted by Cynical Sarah on

I’m about to commit blasphemy in the eyes of many TV watchers that I know. I didn’t enjoy watching Heroes; in fact I didn’t even make it through the first season. Similarly, I really only make it though full seasons of 24 because Helper Troy enjoys the show (and because of Keifer Sutherland).
