The Bachelor addiction, Pt II: What else is new?
You can not tell me you were surprised last night. The bitchy girl gets the guy. I mean, did we really have to sit through, what, like 8 weeks of this torture to know, that in the end, nice girls finish last? The rules? The RULES? Here are my rules to get your man:
10) Get a boob job. Pay for it with your ex-husband’s money. That you took from your joint savings account.
9) Do not, I repeat, do not get along with any women. Not ever. EVER. Did I say EVER?
8) If you …
Why I want to work at Twitter
A great environment
1) It’s very open
2) has tones of windows

Today would have been my dad’s birthday if he hadn’t passed away in June 2003. I found this poem I wrote days after his death, and even now, 6 years later– the emotions and pain, though faded, are still under neath the surface. Who ever said time heals all really meant time hides all. So, here is this ode, to my very special dad:
