Having the same last name and cover jacket design as a prolific(ally rich and famous) author so people looking for his might read yours too strikes me as not the worst idea in the world.

Engineers are retarded. They have some kind of brain damage that allows them to not have social skills, that they can concentrate long enough to write code. But it’s a disease. That’s why I had to quit, I mean, I’m like an engineer in recovery. I don’t want to write code anymore, it just makes you retarded.

CBS approves, Neil Patrick Harris inches closer to ‘Glee.’ | EW

popculturebrain:

The only barrier between NPH/Whedon/Glee has been lifted. Commence the awesomeness.

This is like that part in The Perfect Storm where all anyone can do is watch the three storms on the screen converge into total and complete musical awesomeness. Wait, what?

Or Abroad, Maybe?

I will level with you: I am struggling at getting a job. I do not have one yet. But I’m thinking if I frame up the next few months as not “unemployed” but instead “taking a semester off exterior to the constraints of the academic system,” I’ll feel a lot better about myself.

Went back to my old hometown today with my mom to visit a family friend. The kind of place where gas stations support the high school football team, TAKE THAT, (NEWLY REBORN FROM YOUR OWN ASHES, SO THAT’S A LITTLE FRIGHTENING) CORPORATE AMERICA.

I keep having daydreams where it’s like the end if It’s a Wonderful Life, except that instead of neighbors, every person and company who’ve I’ve applied for a job to and every person I’ve ever worked hard for come rushing into my house and shower me with contracts and job offers and paychecks. What’s sad is that even if we weren’t in a recession, this wouldn’t happen.

I wrote a new web series about the life of Mary-Kate Olsen.  First 3 episodes are up.  More to come next week!  Enjoy!

Elaine is my hero. She should be yours, too.

These are hilarious. I loved when Elaine did the Olsen Twin Minute, and am overjoyed that one of them is back! Watch!
