If there was a Tumblr Reads-like event held in town, would you go? And who would you want to hear read?
Yes, and I think the CL folks would be near the top of any list (there are some award-winners among them after all).
I’d go and if anyone thought it was wise, I’d read.
Young Single Ready To Mingle
Either I was with another human in a significant relationship for way too long OR I am just socially awkward, always.
Pretty sure it’s the latter. Or both. Or men are just not my jam at the current time.
Anyways, I got hit on at Trader Joe’s today while deciding whether to spend $5.99 on asparagus was really worth it. The dude (mildly cute & dorky, normally right up my alley but...

– Aunt Joyce’s Ice Cream Stand: The Art of International Politics
Eye-opening / fascinating. If you adore figure skating like me, but don’t know much about the politics of it, you should definitely read the whole post.
Great blog all-around.

Fun times in downtown Atlanta!
“We’re going to build ourselves a barbecue restaurant. It’s something I think is...”
– —Kevin Gillespie is opening a barbecue restaurant in Atlanta on a totally bullshit premise (one thing Atlanta houses in spades, other than Top Chef runners-up, is excellent sources of smoked, saucy meat) but whatever, I can’t wait to go eat there. (via rachaelmaddux)

$75 fine for slowing down the fast lane? |... →
Please let this happen. It is so necessary. I can’t imagine it’ll be enforced though.
Moving Day is tomorrow!
That sorta snuck up on me. Woohoo to me for ovary-ing up. Embracing poverty has never felt so good.
For the record, I highly enjoy The Original Mattress Factory and Comcast’s products but dealing with delivery and install times make me want to murder… someone. Also Comcast has an insane telephone v. online v. in store ordering system with different prices and deals and policies for...
Not sure what to make of this.
New landlord emails me: “Hey. The old tenants left a microwave. Just an FYI.”
I reply (a bit kidding, a bit not): “Oh they did? I actually have one. Maybe I’ll just keep whichever one is nicer and donate the other to Goodwill. Unless you are opposed to that.”
I get an email back: “Since you have one, and the one they left is actually mine (I lent it to them...

Very interesting article actually.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel there is less of a stigma to stripping in these bad economic times. I haven’t considered it but if I was more desperate and had the body…
Woman crawls in drive-thru window ||... →
Police arrested an intoxicated University of Georgia student early Wednesday after she crawled through the drive-thru window of a closed fast-food restaurant, Athens-Clarke police said.
I love this story.

– Prepare for Tim Tebow Super Bowl–Ad Madness
That is 100% the reason I was rooting for the Tide. Anyone or thing that can make Tim Tebow weep gets my approval. (via thisisareallybadidea)

Favorite quote from the episode. Favorite new show (second is Community then Vampire Diaries).
