I have done nothing today except clean my cat’s area and take out the trash. Both of which were extremely necessary because A. tiny kittens make big smells and B. today was trash day.
While cleaning out my cat’s litterbox, my orange tabby Oliver starts pawing my arm and screetching at me with a dreaded look on his face. I brush it off because usually one of my cats has some sort of...
Meghan has got a bag of white cheddar popcorn, lemon iced tea, two kittens, and a boy. Productivity is out of the question.
It’s movie night!

CLASS IS SO BORING I WANT TO CRY. meghandoesmaryland, if you come to Northwestern for anthro, can you please revamp the department?
Well, see. I’ve come to learn that Anthro sounds way better on paper than in real life. Culture studies [omg!], linguistics [omg!], human evolutionary theory [omg!]. In class and textbook, not so much my taste. I enjoy history for the adventures.

Do you live in Chicago?
Do you like [good] coffee?
I’ll be there from February 19th - 22nd for family business and coffee fun.
If you send me an email (melwardduffy@gmail) with your name and details I can probably get you into Chicago Coffee Fest for free or cheap. I’ll be at my company’s booth representin’, pulling shots, and talking about how great Caffe Pronto is.
Thanks Mom!
I want to extend a thank you to my Mom who taught me how to drive in snow and ice. I also want to thank her for teaching me not to respond to big bully SUVs who tailgate the shit out of me hoping that I will drive 80 during said weather.
Classes Start at 2:00pm today.
I’ve had more sleep this week than I ever thought I would have.
Thoughts on today
Man, I’ve got a lot of shit to learn..
First Two Class Sessions Down for Spring 2009! 148...
So far I’m diggin’ this semester. My professor in American Women’s history started the class off by discussing the importance of soap operas in American culture. Did you know that soap operas used to be known exclusively as ‘women’s programming’? So excited. I’ve already decided that I’m writing my class paper on Women, The Blues and American Music....
Should I just suck it up and get a Twitter?
Sugar, Sugar, oh so sweet.
Yesterday out of boredom and curiosity, I signed up for a personals website that aims to match wealthy people with women and men who want to be ‘taken care of’.
So far, I don’t really know what to think of the whole experience. I wrote on my profile that I have a boyfriend but am interested in talking to successful people with cool interests and awesome life experiences.
So...

Vatican hits out at 'arrogant' Barack Obama over... →
“What is important is to know how to listen, without locking oneself into ideological visions with the arrogance of a person who, having the power, thinks they can decide on life and death. If this is one of the first acts of President Obama, then with all due respect it seems to me that we are heading toward disappointment even more quickly than we thought,” the Archbishop said,...

How do I get more followers without being a pretty girl, reblogging all your posts, telling you you’re all pretty, or following any of your boring blogs?
fart jokes? everyone loves a good fart joke.
Sir, I believe that you compensate for your lack of being a pretty girl by posting pictures of a pretty girl.
Enjoy the traffic!

Right now on the Logo Channel: “Killer Condom” (1997) : A gay detective investigates strange reports of carnivourous condom attacks.
From the way it looks, it’s meant to be a serious scary movie. That is all I have to say.

This makes me happy.
I’m currently suffering from whip-lash because this country has taken a complete U-turn at 200mph with Obama behind the wheel.
NOT COMPLAINING. PLEASE SIR, MAY I HAVE ANOTHER?

She's Leaving Phone.
So, I’m totally getting an iPhone come february and it’s going to be pretty amazing. My Dad offered me a place on his family plan which will run me about $40 p/m for the service. I’ll be sharing minutes, sending as many texts as I want, and surfing the web for the same amount of money that I’m currently paying for a Verizon EnV.

I Had A Dream That Teddy Kennedy Died.
I woke up this morning all panicky and reached for my computer. He’s not dead, thankfully. But if something happens to him that was caused by something in his leg, I think I’m going New Age.
Buying Textbooks Should Not Be This Difficult
I’m in the middle of buying textbooks this very moment and having a fucking stress fit. I understand that whatever I do, I’m going to be spending a mountain of American currency due to the fact that I am now an upper level history major and reading will be a devotion of my life over the next three months. Half.com and Amazon.com are currently kicking ass with prices ($183 and 184,...

Formal Apology to my high school classmates.
I’m really freaking sorry that I was so freaking weird, dumb, and hopeless. High school was such a freak show. For all of us.

I’m going to be there for Coffee Fest 2009 between Thursday February 19th - Sunday February 22nd. :-D!
Re: Dreams from my [fucked up Grand]father.
A little while ago, I posted an email to my grandfather that basically said ‘your views suck and here is why’. I was proud of myself for writting it. Here is what he sent back:
Meg, You have been swimming in the left wing swamp and bought its left wing philosophy that is so pervasive throughout your generation and especially among the sheep on the college campuses and among the...

tim-ryan:
Your doublespeak almost fooled me there. You are quite a challenging foe. I see what you are trying to do, but I refuse to click on that small heart beside your posts in order to turn it red. I have lived my entire life to fight against liking your posts. I will not surrender now simply because of some fancy talk you throw at me. If I have to fight until the death, I will.
(OK...

No no no. You got it all wrong. I’m merely saying:
1. I like what you post. 2. I like what you post often. 3. I like what you post and prefer your posts to other posters who post things.
thumbs up, yo.
Tim-Ryan
Everything you’ve posted today has been heart-clicked by yours truly. It would be unfair of me not to mention it.
