Log Entry #001

2:22 PM - 

Boyfriend is on the computer writing so I switch to my ancient Macbook Pro. Have to Force Quit everything but Chrome and Stickies. I have way too many stickies so I try to contain them in some way. 

Go directly to Twitter. I always scroll back to an hour from now and start there. I mean, I'm only human. Watch the new Mockingjay Part 2 trailer. I've read all the books and seen the first two movies but I'm behind. Still, it's a great trailer. 

Something reminds me to look up where the meme "Reunited and It Feels So Good..." came from. Google it but just get a bunch of articles that are titled "Reunited and It Feels So Good". No "Know Your Meme" or anything. But a Youtube Video by Peaches & Herb. I try to figure out if that's a shadow or his actual facial hair. I guess this song is the origin of the phrase but it's hard to believe because I've never seen it before and it also just seems to be a weird thing for the Internet to latch onto. That is actually his facial hair. 

Almost get fooled by a promoted tweet. Almost.

Click another tweet from TimeOut Los Angeles about a car opera from the same people who did Invisible Cities. Click through to a link about LA being the second most congested city in the US. No surprise there. The first is Washington DC. Bit of a surprise there.

My CNN app on my phone lights up. The best-selling novelist Jackie Collins has died from breast cancer. I go to look up who she is with a hint of shame. 

Oh. Okay. 

Check out a HOWDesign listicle on Poster Designs. There's no way I wasn't going to. 

Fav a tweet by comic artist Stejpan Seijic about a new series he's working on so I can check it out later on. 

See another listicle, this time on simple tattoo with a lot of meaning. I don't have any tattoos and probably won't get any because my dad never liked them. That's my tribute to him. Instead of getting a tattoo in his memory, I will stop myself from getting a tattoo. But it's still fun to think about. One tattoo reads "timshel" and the caption explains it's a quote from the John Steinbeck novel "East of Eden". It means "thou mayest" which symbolizes free choice. This seems like the type of thing people right essays about, but this caption wraps it up so nicely. 

5:03 PM - 

Take a breather and talk to my boyfriend about the new blog I'm starting. We brainstorm ideas. Came up with a clickbait title for when it gets super popular: "Girl Documents Browsing Habits for 30 days -- And the Results are STUNNING".

5:33 PM -

Decide to play Pokemon Puzzle League with Boyfriend. We come up with an idea to start a podcast where we play Pokemon Puzzle League and talk the whole time. Call it PoJokemon.

10:17 PM - 

Skype with friend in Janesville, WI. He found an awesome video share platform so we can all watch The Phantom Menace together because it was worse than he remembered and he could only get through the first half hour without us. It's my first viewing. My God, this movie is bad. And racist. The pod racer scene is pretty cool though.
