I am here for Friends

About Me



SERIOUSLY addicted to iced tea!!

That's it people... the truth is out. I am practically a vampire, devoid of any semblance of a normal schedule. (Shh, don't tell anybody.)I sleep during the day, am awake at all hours of the night, and practically subsist on the blood of the living. (ok fine - I just "draw blood") I am also the lightest skin color I'll probably be all year, and that's saying a lot. :)
This is what night shift does to people. On a side note: It wreaks havoc on your Vitamin D levels due to inadequate sun exposure, and apparently increases your risk of prostate and breast cancer, not to mention depression. Just a thought.

Two things haven't changed though: my love of food and sleep ;)

Oscar letdown

It seems I'm not as big of a fan of awards shows lately, and the recent Oscars 80th was reason enough why. Sooo disappointed in Jon Stewart, probably because I was expecting so much more from him. But...

Grrreat balls of fire

So apparently this is what happens now when people attend midnight showings of movies, as evidenced by my recent outing to watch Spidey 3 at the Block. At one point, I think I counted 15 or so beach b...
