Dumb Little Man: Will All of This Matter In Five... →
The most powerful way to use those six little words, though, is when you’re deciding what you want to spend your time doing. Some activities might be fun or profitable right now – but they won’t matter in five years. Others might seem like a lot of work for little reward in the present – but you’ll reap huge dividends a few years down the line.
This is a great article. I think everyone is...

I was really excited to read this article as I was afraid of not being able to eat cheap/healthy while on vacation. Now all I have to do is find some of these.

Random thoughts of the day:
I think the bathroom at work is haunted. We’re on the highest floor of the building, but I always hear some lady in heels walking around above my head.

I need to remember to bring my sunglasses to California.
French toast for dinner tonight!
We have to wake up at 3:50 tomorrow morning. That’s basically still night.

You don't have to be lonely.
This is great advice for any location!
playnice:
When I first moved to New York, I spent a lot of time crying in my shower (good times). My loneliness was a little debilitating. I didn’t realize that there are clubs and support groups all over the world designed to help you develop a fellowship with your neighbors. Or, if you’re not a “joiner”, you could always go hang out at Denny’s or...

The Hills: Diary of a Production Assistant →
Best excerpt:
10:18am: Set up shot where Lauren will meet her new boy toy, Doug. He was three hours late because he needed every piece of hair frosted. In a rare slip-up, they started having a conversation about their lives when I had to wave my hands furiously behind Lauren until the himbo got the hint and asked Lauren about Aundrina and Lo, like his contract demanded.

Just a few reasons I love Fall:
Crisp chill in the air that’s a relief after N.C.’s humid summers.
Sweaters.
Changing leaves.
Bright blue skies.
Pumpkin Spice lattes (and ice cream, and creamer, and…).
New seasons of TV shows.
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday.
