so…what is french vanilla anyway?
I went to dunkies today and tried to get my usual hazelnut iced coffee and they were out of hazelnut and offered me the choice of “french vanilla” or “waiting for them to brew a pot”

so…yesterday I was walking through the public gardens and there was a gaggle of painters all staked out taking in the lush scenery. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen them — I always see this one guy, and I swear he’s just got one picture and he acts like he’s painting it, all week […]

I saw something over at Mac’s that really punctuates what I hate about capitalism and marketing: silent tampon wrappers!
