Jillian and Some Condensed Matter

One time, on one of many dates with a now ex-boyfriend, I lost my wallet. I didn’t know it was gone until someone from a video store called my cell phone to let me know. We had to drive all the way back to the Valley - trust me, it was FAR - to retrieve it. Apparently some guy found it in the parking space we were in and turned it in to the nearest business. The guy left his number in case I wanted to call him. I did. He had a really nice voice and I was getting all excited (I know I already had a boyfriend, but the plan to dump him was already in place) until he said, “My girlfriend and I….”

Wow.

What I have to say is so incredibly awesome, it gets its own post. I generally don’t like to post stuff back-to-back because I have this fear that people will miss stuff. I know it’s not that serious, but I don’t trust people to scroll, ya know?

Onwards…

I received “The Rising Blogger, Post of the Day” award, you can see it proudly displayed on the “Awards” page. If you click it, you’ll see the post in which I am awarded. Feel free to drop some comments over there if you’re willing.

Jillian GO! Smells the Flowers… and an award!

I recently received an award from GO! Smell the Flowers. This blog… how can I describe it? It’s different, but the good kind of different if you know what I mean. It has 20 Founders from all over the world, each with their own personality. GO! Smell the Flowers encourages respectful participation in their posts. If you have something to say, by all means say it; however, people will let you know when they disagree. But that’s life, right? I comment there at least everyday. Some of the posts are informative, some are just plain fun, and some are a bit on the serious side. Either way… it’s different enough to where it’s never boring and I can always find something to make me laugh, smile, or think (I do this between reality TV re-runs).

Jillian and the Post of Antiquity

This update is kinda long, but go ahead and read it anyway! :-)

*****

A post like this needs an introduction.

The following is an entry taken from a joint blog venture with the H. We were trying out a few ideas in the hope of finding a system that worked for us.

This is a review of the movie “Blades of Glory” using AOL Instant Messenger.

Like I said… we were trying a few things.

This is pretty much how we are in ‘real life’. You can decide if that’s good or bad!

Enjoy.

Waffles

Woo hoo! It’s the day before February. Normally this is isn’t something that would get me excited, but with the onset of a new month it means I can change how I title my blog posts. I’ve been kicking around some ideas (lines from songs, quotes from movies, reality TV references, etc.), but I keep coming back to the logical (however boring) idea of titling the posts with something that’s actually relevant to the content. OK, maybe “boring” isn’t the right word to use.
