Someone was looking for science geek t-shirts? Well, this is close.
Younger brother M particularly loved the Pi tee. "I’ll wear it on March 14!" he gushed.
Geek.
This one would be appropriate for me at this very moment.
However, I do favor this one because it reflects my constant state of mind so well.

Heh. I went all Henri on you.
So a couple of weeks ago, I was finally able to order my "Stop the War on Choice" tee, along with another shirt that read "Kiss Me, I’m Pro-Choice." I was notified that they shipped last week. A package arrived this week from Planned Parenthood – my father immediately [...]

I received spam in my inbox yesterday that read, "WordNerd, will you accept this position?" It made me snort – for some reason, I immediately pictured a guy dressed up in a fancy penguin tuxedo, a top hat, and on bended knee, extending a contract to me. It was very proposal-like.
It can work in other [...]

Too bad I need the goddamn money every single day.
The only thing I did today? Correct a report and send it to my client. Then I applied for a side job. Then I went to Target and bought necessary items. Then I ran and took a shower and did my hair. Which looks pretty decent [...]

Tema numero uno: I am a certified vanilla latte whore (I’m anticipating, with dread, the searches that’ll produce).

My father said. And now, I will sing: "The wheels on the bus go ’round and ’round, ’round and ’round, ’round and ’round / The wheels on the bus go ’round and ’round, all through the day!"
I really have nothing to say other than no, I’ve not had anything to drink today.
P.S. Happy 32nd Anniversary [...]

Note to NyQuil: NyQuil is "the nighttime, sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head, fever sleep better to feel better medicine." It is not supposed to allow you to wake up every four hours, sniffling and sneezing and coughing, your dreams clouded by convoluted 24 plots in which haircare products are tied to Dina Araz. I [...]

I think I’m getting sick again, and to this I say "ugh." I exercise, eat right, get plenty of sleep, drink lots of fluids, inundate myself with vitamin C, wash my hands (especiall after going to work, as this is where the germs party, dudes) and try not to stress out all that much. What [...]

My father just told me that, after I was born in Mexico, my parents sojourned forth towards the States once again. The United States, however, didn’t want to let me in – I found this story immensely amusing, given I was three months old at the time.
The story gets less amusing when my father concludes [...]
