I thought her appearance was great-- especially on Weekend Update when Amy Poehler was rapping about her and she was kind of dancing along at the desk. That woman has rhythm! She and Tina Fey really do look a lot alike-- that was even more obvious when they were together on the show.<br /><br />All of this Tina Fey/Sarah Palin stuff is really boosting SNL's ratings! They've always been great at political stuff, especially right before a big election.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-792674265887173375?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-56321793752897921202008-10-05T18:55:00.000-07:002008-10-05T19:07:40.556-07:00I just found something to do at the office when I'm not overloaded with work. It's a site called <a href="http://absurdlycool.com/">AbsurdlyCool.com</a>. It has lots of ways to get free samples with a <a href="http://absurdlycool.com/">freebies and free samples finder</a>. There's a whole community of people who post various offers they've found on the web. There are contests, free samples, giveaways and other free stuff. Not only that-- there are links to other sites that have collected a whole bunch of free offers. You can also opt to receive their free daily email.

It's extremely addictive and a site that I plan to visit everyday.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-5632179375289792120?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-50420969006366405282008-10-01T13:36:00.000-07:002008-10-05T13:42:03.379-07:00The rustle of the leaves, the cooler weather, the pumpkin-flavored EVERYTHING!<br /><br />Did you guys know that nutmeg and other fall-ish spices drive men nuts? It makes them *ahem* super keen on "discussing politics" with women. ;)<br /><br />That's probably another reason that this is my favorite month. Whenever I bring pumpkin donuts or mini-gingerbreads to work and put them in the office kitchen for everyone to help themselves, I notice that all the men around here get super flirty. :p<br /><br />Let's just say I keep a nutmeg grater in my purse. ;)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-5042096900636640528?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-10490401955919111682008-09-22T14:39:00.000-07:002008-09-22T14:52:13.047-07:00Every man out there (and especially those who wish to date me) should check out <a href="http://www.buildingbettermen.com">BuildingBetterMen.com</a>.<br /><br />I'm going to permanently link to this site on my blog so any future boyfriends/fiances/husbands can check it out. ;)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-1049040195591911168?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-76161122181112024772008-09-22T11:55:00.000-07:002008-09-22T12:20:48.508-07:00Hey, if anyone could give me some advice on this, that would really help!

British boys are so cute (and great kissers, btw). ;)<br /><br />But the work has piled up in my absence! I don't mind dragging it home so much now-- it was worth having it pile up so that I could finally check something off my life's "To-Do" list.<br /><br />I am addicted to Earl Grey tea, now. I will be skipping Happy Hour from now on and going to tea time instead. :)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-2852944780360286122?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-69672520161288211292008-08-29T11:47:00.000-07:002008-09-22T11:50:33.211-07:00They're sending me on a business trip... TO LONDON!!!! This totally makes up for all that extra work I had to do.<br /><br />I'm going to add a few vacation days onto the trip length, so I will out for a couple weeks. This is so awesome, I have always wanted to go to England.<br /><br />Bon Voyage to me!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-6967252016128821129?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-91536754738473155442008-08-14T16:05:00.000-07:002008-08-14T16:11:08.368-07:00Maybe I can find some here:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.techiecrossing.com">http://www.techiecrossing.com</a><br /><br />Or maybe I can find a job where I can meet some! :p But really, for all you techies out there, this site is awesome for finding <a href="http://www.techiecrossing.com">technology jobs</a>.

Um, yay!<br /><br />Did I mention that with my slight please-don't-leave-us promotion last year I upgraded from a cubicle to an office? And that said office has no windows?<br /><br />Geeze... at least when I was in the cubicle I could see some windows if I craned my neck far enough.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-4424771480930921523?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-68134149097464214202008-08-13T10:13:00.000-07:002008-08-13T10:18:49.216-07:00Gawd...the people I work with infuriate me. And on top of that, two of them decided to go on vacation at the same time and leave me with their work! My inbox could easily be used as a paper weight.<br /><br />Blagh... I guess I will have to cancel my plans to go to the beach this weekend. I'll definitely be taking work home... along with a giant aspirin.<br /><br />At least I get to bill for overtime! Suckas!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-6813414909746421420?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-86293187950668573142008-08-12T18:23:00.000-07:002008-08-12T18:39:53.241-07:00I've finally found a place where I can <a href="http://www.crushorflush.com">meet people</a> online and not have to worry if they're scary stalkers or axe murderers. It's called Crush or Flush and I'm super excited about it!<br /><br />I'll have time to start my profile on my lunch break! All you do is visit www.CrushorFlush.com and upload a pic of yourself, add a description and then add tags that describe you (for me, I would definitely add the shopaholic tag) and your personality. Be sure to indicate if you're a guy or girl and if you're looking for a guy or a girl. That would kinda help. ;)<br /><br />Then start crushin' and flushin'! You can browse people by age, gender, location, tags-- all sorts of things! "Crush" the ones you like to let them know how ya feel and "flush" the ones you'd rather pass on. And they won't know you flushed them, so no hard feelings!<br /><br />If someone crushes on you back, you'll get a text message that lets you know their is potential love in the air. Chat and email all you want and then...well, you take it from there! ;)<br /><br />All of you information is kept private and there's never any danger of someone finding out who you are...unless you want them to, that is!<br /><br />Prince Charming awaits!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4987614841440331806-8629318795066857314?l=junkdreams.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Melanienoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987614841440331806.post-24694619612961889742008-08-12T17:50:00.000-07:002008-08-12T17:54:18.307-07:00I finally found a way to ease my stress!
