How to handle a stressful job

Ladies and gents, today we have for you a tip about how to handle a stressful job:

It's simple - just keep this window open on your computer desktop at work and gaze at once an hour (or more if needed, but not so much that you are caught and then get into real trouble). adoring sighs and mutterings seem to increase the relaxing effect.
This method have been tested by my team and I and has been found to work 90% of the time (our other coordinator is such a cynic).
Good luck!

(Oh, yeah. The darn camera is still dead. Blah. Well, at least i supplied you with kitties, right?)

Holly crackers!!!

Go watch Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog! It should be free for only a little longer, but then you can buy it on iTunes.
And you probably should. Independent film making should be supported.


And of course, if you're up for some Hollywood film making that should also be supported, go see The Dark Knight. If you can get your paws on some tickets, that is.

Now, that's something you don't hear every day...

Did I ever tell you I got sneezed on by a giraffe? Well, I was. Really.

It was the summer of 1996 and we went to Kenya for my sister's Bat Mitzva (awesome! Warmly recommended). We finished a week long safari tour and has some time to kill in Nairobi while we were waiting for our flight to the Seychelles (very warmly recommended), so our tour guide suggested we go to this rescue where they save orphaned baby wildlife and have plenty of giraffes too. We were game (yes, pun intended) so we drove out of the city to the orphanage.
As soon as we got in, we saw this wooden tower, surrounded by giraffes who were being fed by the visitors and staff. My sister and I were on top of it before you could say "zebra". We were feeding the giraffes for quite a while. They eat those giant pellets, the size of a golf balls, which you kind of have to toss to them because darn - giraffe teeth sure are big, and I'm not quite sure they're smart enough to remember they're vegetarians when they're hungry. Giraffes are funny creatures, they're lips have fur on the inside parts too, which makes them look like puppets. And they were hungry, they shoved their faces as far as they could into the tower balcony where we were standing to get more pellets tossed at them.
My sister was in a feeding frenzy, my mom was busy video taping us, and I can't remember what I was doing (talking to them, probably) when all of a sudden I heared a very large, very close "ha-tchooooooooo!" and the left side of my face got quite wet...
It's like, that scene from "Jurassic Park", only by a mammal. Remember that one?

Anywho, last night I checked out Cute Overload, and burst into hysteric laughter.


I don't know if that's "my" giraffe, but it sure is the orphanage we went to.

If this story made you laugh - good! It sure was meant too.

Not what it seems

I was looking at my cup tonight, when I was making my before-bed shake and thought "Jee, that looks gross!" Truth is, it's just some chocolate whey protein with some Miracle Greens mixed in (I know, a vegetarian not getting enough vegetables?), and it doesn't taste all that bad either. It just looks... Hmm... Somewhat funky.
Sorry about that, you guys. It's my way past midnight humor.

Waaaaaaaaaay too cute

While we're awaiting an update from Michaland, here's some free entertainmment:



We used to have a cat named Speedy, once upon a time. She used to steal melon rinds and corn cobbs from the trash can and nibble on them. That was just about as cute.

Dah!

You Belong in Paris

You enjoy all that life has to offer, and you can appreciate the fine tastes and sites of Paris. You're the perfect person to wander the streets of Paris aimlessly, enjoying architecture and a crepe.

What European City Do You Belong In?

Mais, bien sur! London is also one of my favorites , but Paris is my true love. I'm quite the francophile.
Well, and Tel Aviv, but you can't really call it "European" (I wish...)

I'm an English fiend!

Muwah ha ha! Look at them beautiful test scores! I'm a master of the English language!

The Commonly confused English words test:

Your Score: Advanced
You scored 100% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 60% Expert!

You have an extremely good understanding of beginner, intermediate, and advanced level commonly confused English words. This is an exceptional score. Remember, these are commonly confused English words, which means most people don't use them properly. You got an extremely respectable score.

Well, as a matter of fact, ma sista got a better score than me (she's a genius, what did you expect?). I blame the imperfect score on tha fact that the "expert" section involved a lot of spelling questions. My zpeling ees nott so goot. ; )

I have plenty of news to share, but you'll have o wait a few hours for my brain to wake up and for some yoga to be done.
Ciao!
