Cancel your plans for tonight, Chicago!
Unless your plan was to go to Cole’s at 9:30 for the standup contest. Boyfriend will make you laugh, I promise. Comedy, cheap drinks, and beautiful people such as yourself? Don’t be a dummy, come laugh with me!

Record Store Day
Finally made it to Logan Hardware after living in the neighborhood for two years. I could have stayed there all day.
I need someone/something to help me get out of this bad mood.

Dog training! Halp!
Anyone know of a good place to go for dog training in Chicago? I’m not rolling in money over here, so decent prices are going to be a big factor.

My dog ate my access card
Really. Excerpt from a work email that I sent today: “Friday morning I found that my dog ate a portion of my access card. I have no idea how he got it out of my purse.”
I am an adult oozing with professionalism.

The United States of America on college education
Student: I'm not going to go to college because I don't want to go into debt.
USA: YOU USELESS PIECE OF SHIT. YOU'RE GOING TO AMOUNT TO NOTHING YOU FUCKING SCUMBAG. YOU'RE THE REASON WHY MY TAXES ARE SO HIGH.
Student: I'm just going to attend a small community college instead.

Student: I attended a four year university and received a diploma in a field I am interested in. Now I am $50,000+ in debt.

Passing out business cards is quickly becoming... →
infoneer-pulse:
Chalk up another looming casualty of the Internet age: business cards.
Ubiquitous as pinstripes, the 2-by-3.5-inch pieces of card stock have long been a staple in executive briefcases. Exchanging cards helps to break the ice and provides a quick reference for forgotten names.

I just have to get this out.
I’ve been on the phone on and off since last Friday trying to fix my doctor’s mistake, and I am not getting through to anyone. They answer the phone, we exchange words, but nothing happens.
