sometimes, i'm a douche.
Well, it's true. At least I admit it.
Also, it's fun calling people out on being douchebags, because first there's the laugh and then they realize I'm being serious.
Happy December, by the way. Ugh, winter.
Bookstores are such havens.
I don't like Starbucks. Of course, when someone offers to get me a peppermint hot chocolate with their declining dollars, I can't say no - I'll make exceptions for the peppermint hot chocolate.
But really. Not to be a coffee elitist (who am I kidding, I've become a total coffee elitist), but I feel like there's no excuse for Starbuckses in the city when there are so many fantastic little bistros and cafes right around the corner. They're cheaper, and infinitely better (i.e. you dont' feel like vomiting up the insane amount of sugar in the drink after you down it)
I was up ridiculously late last night. Doing work? Pfffffffft, please. I was up making the most awesome-random-party-playlist EVER, obviously.
You know I have random music taste. But this playlist is the epitome of random. I'm throwing a party sometime this weekend just so I can play the playlist. For serious. I excluded jazz and classical, just because it would REALLY throw it off and throw it into another dimension of random, but it's still 12.5 hours of crazy.
And since I have nothing better to do while I breakfast on leftover chinese rice, I'm going to play a round of magic 8-ball with the crazy playlist. It's fun - you have iTunes on shuffle and ask it questions, and it will give you answers (yeah it's completely ad hoc, but it's the same thing as going to a fortune teller, in my opinion).
