Dear New Ipod,

Hi, how are you? I'm good. I'm excited about our new journey together. I really like that you are silver even though you don't match my other Ipod memorabilia. My bose speaker set will be very happy to know that his friend is back and he is loved.

Hopefully you won't run away again. Or jump into my chai.

I'm going to add some cool new video to you since you are ridiculously large in storage. I can only fill 14 of your 80 gigs, and I really want you to feel special. So I thought I would put in a variety of shows.

What genre do you like? Reality your thing? Cause Project Runway is amazing.
Suspense? I like the Soprano's.
Dark Comedy? Weeds is a riot and edgy.
Old school? Everyone loves Friends!

Really it's your choice. Well, that and I need to learn how to rip DVDs and put them on you.

What about a rousing podcast? Those sound fun.

I just want to be friends.

Love,
Kali

I think I'm dying...

...it's true. I am. I have radiating pain around my transpyloric plane.

I hear doctors love it when patients self-diagnose.

I'm Addicted To the Funnies

I have this wonderful routine. I love routines and what they have to offer. Stability. Solidarity. Chai.

A few times a week (my budget won't allow more) I hop in my car and drive the three mile trek to Starbucks. Parking is rarely good, so I walk an extra ten feet to the door. Life is rough. It's October (in case you live in Texas and couldn't really tell due to the 90 and 80 degree days we are still having) and they have brought in the seasonal products.

"I'd like the Pumpkin Soy Chai, Grande, please."
"What size?"
"That would be a Grande."
"Name?"
"Kali."
scribbles callie
"How are you paying?"
"Starbuck's credit. I'm not sure how much I have left on the Starbucks side, but you could check."
"Alright."
"Thanks."

That's when I look at the seasonal coffee cups and treats. Yum.

"I have a Pumpkin Soy Chai for Kaylee at the bar."
"Thanks."

And that's when I saunter over to the newspaper stand, grab the Dallas Morning News, and go sit outside. It's all a ploy, I sit outside long enough for them to forget about me and run off with the paper.

Muahahaha. Comics you are mine.

Things to Ponder for a Ponderess Day

1. I had a dream last night that I was in Vegas watching a Cirque du Soleil show. I had to watch it because I wanted to see "Across the Universe" and it was the next best thing. Honestly, I think it might be the other way around, but whatever...

But someone was trying to kill me and I had to run all around the theatre, thus ruining my show experience.

How rude.

2. I think I might get another cat, so Igby has a friend to play and boss around.

3. I'm in the process of getting another job. Just a blah job because let's be honest- I need money and I like money. But I'm not going to tell you what it is because it's a little embarrassing. Let's just say that it will be a mindless job. And that is nice.

4. I am getting burned out writing this semester. I have multiple papers dues every week. I'm spent.

5. Along with being spent, I am hungry. But I want Cheesecake Factory stuff. Sadly, Denton does not have a Cheesecake Factory. And I have no money.

In case you were wondering...

And in no particular order:

1. My cat loves mashed potatoes, bruschetta and my tortellini
2. UNT is trying to steal my diploma
3. They have offered me a letter in leu of said diploma
4. I need to brush my teeth
5. Almost missed a test today
6. Think I got food poisoning from a burrito
7. I have way to much due in 17 hours to waste time writing here or brushing my teeth
8. All things mentioned in #7 will still happen
9. My french manicure is beginning to look raunchy
10. I think Weeds is the best show not on network TV
11. My profound thoughts take up more than a line and wouldn't fit this format
