H&R Block, Worst Ever.
Worst customer service ever. I still haven’t gotten my stimulus which dispersed in May. I’ve called three times about it. Know anyone else who prepares taxes for cheap?

Well, I’m sick as hell, but the show must go on. ”The band” is recording our first HIT single today, so look out for it soon.
Nerd Alert
Maybe it’s because it’s a hellish week, or maybe it’s because I’m 7 days sober (of diet pepsi), or maybe it’s because I’m a bitch, but I feel like scientists shouldn’t lecture me on which experimental designs are “most powerful” (like they even know what power is) when they can’t even correctly interpret a p-value. If a p-value is the...

I swear to god I'm not ridin' that BUS!
Mamakita: I have to work on Thanksgiving, so you're off the hook.
Me: Phew
Mamakita: But you still have to come home for Christmas.
Me: Well, that's your problem because I am NOT riding Greyhound EVER again!
Mamakita: Oh come on, think of how boring your blog would be without all those stories.
I hate school!
That’s all.
I consider myself a scientist
…both in occupation and philosophy, so as of today I’m starting a pseudoscientific experiment on myself. I’ve read from several reputable sources (e.g. Wikipedia) that the artificial sugar in diet pops can cause migraines. So, I am going to give up diet pop (GASP!) until I get a migraine. Now, this might sound a little extreme, and it is, but I’m willing to do it for...
New look!
Well, I guess it’s a sad day for those of you who loved the sad, drunk bee, but today I’m ushering in a new era of sadness: Inevitable Mortality (although most of us won’t be held down with push-pins at least).
Gloomy Sunday.
I bought new mics and I wanted to...

Too Mid-western?
Historically speaking, I’m pretty lenient when it comes to tolerating crazy things that people do to or near me. For instance, mimicking everything I do, telling me how pretty I am and asking if I want to watch movies (I do have a Netflix account!), barking at me, etc. But I feel like it’s time to start standing up for myself. Today on the bus I had the pleasure of sitting next to...
Please be a black hole, please be a black hole,...
Part of me was a little sad when I woke up this morning after CERN turned on their particle collider. I guess I still have to pay back those G-D student loans.
No, really. I don't follow politics.
Big Baby Bryan keeps saying he’s not political while he’s flipping between Fox News and MSNBC, and reading some kinda propaganda about why conservatives are assholes, and watching the Daily Show just because he gets the jokes, and not talking to his mom until she takes that goddamn McCain sign out of the yard. But me, I’m actually not political…anymore. I know enough to...
Travels
I’ve been a regular jetsetter these past two weeks, despite only actually flying once (but it was round trip!). Last week, I went to Pittsburgh to visit Scottie too Hottie, and this weekend I went to New York to visit Patty and Wilson.
Pittsburgh:
Like Cleveland but dirtier with more shit to do. Plus, Yuengling for $1.50 which is a solid gold deal, people. The zoo was bitchin’ and had TWO...
