Happy Valentine's Day :)

Good morning, blog readers, and happy Valentine's Day.
I should be getting ready for work, but I'm instead watching President Obama answering questions about the State of the Union address.  (NERDFIGHTERS!!  haha)

I'm not a super huge fan of Valentine's Day.. mostly probably because I'm single and therefore not receiving lovely gifts.  So sometimes Valentine's gets a little like this for me::::

 

But then I remember that life is amazing!!

So if you're feeling like Stitch up there today, then remember this::::

 

I'm just headed to work tonight... making pizzas like a boss, ya know?

I hope all ya'all have a super amazing Valentine's!

Skittles sickness :/

Hello, blog readers.
I'm in my epic (not) PRT class right now, and we just finished a fun (not) scavenger hunt about campus recreation.
I'm a bit sick (probably because I've eaten like 5000 calories worth of Skittles today!!) but besides that I'm fantastic. :)

I have a pretty epic day of work coming up, consisting of a sleepless night of cleaning and non-stop pizza making, so I will definitely tell ya'all all about it.  Knowing that this is coming up is making me dang lazy though... it makes me think "I need to offset my all-night cleaning extravaganza by sleeping TONS right now" even though that won't help me out too much.  Blehh.

I think I need a pedometer.
AAHHH I just looked up pedometers and they're way more expensive than I thought they were.
LOOK HERE.
Hopefully they make crappy cheap ones at Walmart, cause there is no way I'm paying $30 of hard, pizza-making labor for a pedometer.

I am really enjoying my new job and I work with a bunch of cool people, so that's great!! :)

Why am I still eating Skittles if they're making me sick??  Cause I'm stupid.  LJ fail.

Have an awesome evening.

Tostadoras

I was looking through lots of old high school stuff today, and I found a powerpoint from my Spanish class from a long time ago.... It's poorly made, and my Spanish skills aren't too great, so you don't really need to speak Spanish to get what's going on.
The cool part is that it's all about toasters!!
The assignment was to make a presentation about the history of a certain object and how it has changed in present times;; most people did the telephone (boring) but my partner and I picked toasters.  So that's pretty cool, I guess.
If you'd like to see my TOTALLY EPIC high school toaster presentation, then just CLICK RIGHT HERE!!!!

Have a fantastic day!!

P.S.
If the above link doesn't actually take you to a Spanish slideshow about toasters, then that means that I did that wrong.  If this is the case, then I'd like you to let me know.  So comment or email me at theseussproject@gmail.com if there's any problems;; first person to let me know wins a prize!! :)

Safety Dance and blogging nostalgia

If you think my current blog posts are bad, then you probably shouldn't read the first 2 dozen-ish posts on here.  I never read over my old posts, because they are HIDEOUSLY written.
I know that I still write lots of crap nowadays, but I think we can all agree that it is better written than pretty much everything from back in the day.

But those first blog posts sound like Shakespeare at his best compared to the posts on the blog I used to have.  I loved that blog a lot, and I will continue to post on it (in theory) at the request of my amazing friends/fellow blog writers.  But I know, 100% abso-freaking-lutely, that those blog posts were HORRIBLE.  So horrible, in fact, that I'm not going to link you to my old blog to save myself from shame.  And ya'all know that means something cause I link you to everything.

I guess that it makes sense that the old posts were bad, because I was just a kid when I wrote them... probably like 14 or 15.  But still, it was only me who wrote lousy posts; Ri and Ems always write beautiful and insightful things and I just tell everyone what I did that day.
Blehh.  I miss that blog.

Thinking about the old blog made me quite nostalgic, so I dug up an old recurring theme from that blog; the song Safety Dance by Men Without Hats.  [[Why was this a recurring theme??  Because it's dang cool, that's why.  And cause we were sophomores.]]

WATCH IT!!!!!!  You know you want to!!

 

 

I think that the singer guy from Men Without Hats looks like this guy that I knew in high school::::

I miss my old blog. :(
Not that I don't love TSP a billion times over.
I'll go post on it. :)
Especially if Ri or Ems texts me a funny joke right now.

Too much time on YouTube

Hi guys! :)
It's 1:51 AM right now, and I should be sleeping.
But instead I'm watching oldschool Vlogbrothers videos.
I haven't been watching these guys for too long, but they're pretty cool and they care about the world not being miserable so that's great. :)  If you haven't seen them then check them out RIGHT HERE.
I discovered tonight that one of the guys who makes the videos also turned out to be the author of one of my favorite books, Looking for Alaska.  So that's pretty cool.

In other news, I stopped cleaning my house like a crazy freak because my landlords came home and went to sleep and I really don't want to wake them up.  Instead I did less useful things, which was quite un-fun and led me to spending an hour on YouTube.

Speaking of YouTube, this is sad:::

That's a screenshot of my most popular websites.  YouTube is #2.  I think YouTube is amazing but I spend way too much time on there.
While we're looking at this, why is Amazon #4??!?  Wow.  I really don't have enough money for Amazon to be #4.
The Seuss Project used to be #4 but I accidentally hit the little "X" in the corner of the icon last week, so it disappeared for a while and hasn't come back yet.  Lamesauce. x/

I think I'll try to sleep now.. (haha, like that'll happen)
I leave you all with an adorable orca whale cartoony thing::::::::

 

Have a good night.

My name is LJ and I'm a clean-aholic

Hey, bloggers.

Here's today's dilemma::
I like to clean things.
Like, um, a lot.
I'm actually a SUPER messy person, deep down.  After the bachelorette pad gets all clean then it looks like a tornado hit it within a couple days.
But when I'm unhappy or stressed, I want to clean everything in sight.
There are some days that I clean the bachelorette pad (sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, sanitizing everything in sight; the whole shebang) and then I do it all over again the next day for no real reason.  Or some days after I've finished cleaning pretty much everything, I try my darndest to find new things to clean.

There are 2 reasons that made me realize that this cleaning thing is a problem.

1. As you may remember, I started my new job on Monday.  I spent most of my shift cleaning things, which is fine by me and appreciated by my less-clean-loving coworkers.  But today, I caught myself thinking something along the lines of "I can't wait to go back to work tomorrow and clean the store some more..."  Dead serious.  And then I was all like::

 

 

2. The toaster.

 

This ^^^^^ is my toaster.

I bought it from Walmart for about $8 when I moved, before I realized that I don't really like toast and it was not a good idea to buy it.

I have used this toaster exactly twice.  Once for toast and once for a pop-tart.

I have probably cleaned this toaster about 8-10 times.

Wow.

I suck.



I should stop cleaning my feelings.

Thanks to the amazing 3 people who followed my Twitter today. :) {{especially @MariahMelena}}
I forgot I had it, but now I'm using it again.
So 10 awesome points go to anyone who follows @TheSeussProject on Twitter. :D
