It’s album of the year!

As much as I love T-Swizzle, Gaga was robbed. The Fame is a much better album than Fearless.
D is for Dog
I love dogs. Always have. Before I wanted to be a lawyer, I wanted to be a vet because I love dogs so much (turns out I’ve got some mild allergies to them, as well as a hatred of science and a squeamish tummy, so that plan went out the window pretty early). I didn’t get a dog in undergrad because so few landlords in Ann Arbor allow them. I almost got a dog last year, but it...

D is for Dollhouse
I wish it had gotten a full second season…it was so good this season (especially the episodes leading up to the last two, which were both meh, but the finale was much better than the penultimate episode at least) that I wish they had gotten more time to flesh it out instead of it being so rushed. I’m sad it’s over. I am happy that I watched it with friends…I’m...

More seriously, it’s the remaining balance after paying a max of 10% of your income for 10-20 years. But the fact that there could be a payment cap relative to total income is awesome, so more appropriately we should be excited that we won’t all be completely broke following college.
Hopefully the majority party can find the...

You know what is “extraordinarily sad”, John Edwards? That you screwed someone who wasn’t your wife, got her pregnant and (it appears) thought you could get away with it.

Hey Jess! Don’t forget his wife had cancer.
Good on the National Enquirer for exposing this guy for the piece of crap he is!

(Tom Cruise, with a height of 5’7” and weight of 201 lbs, has a body mass index of 31.5, while the younger Schwarzenegger, at just over six feet tall and about 235 pounds, had a BMI over 31. The figures I quote for athletes and movie stars are from data available on the web, and I believe they are accurate, or were when the information was entered.)

M is for Mothers
No matter how much you vow to yourself that you aren’t going to turn into yours, one day you’ll realize how often her words come tumbling out of your mouth.
I hate feeling sorry for myself.

H is for Hiatus
I’ve been gone for a while, again. Part of it was that while I was at home, I was actually doing things: watching movies, spending time with Little Sister, seeing my friends, so I didn’t have much in the way of spare time to get on the internet. I’ve been back in the South for almost three weeks now, though, and things have been so tumultuous that I’ve really needed time to...
