Hey now, everyone is entitled to a sabbatical. I wish. A small conversation in IPLE pretty much summed up my life (wording may not be exact):
Mr. Brodman: I hope you all enjoyed this little break from IPLE you had.
Jason: It wasn't really much of a break.
Rich: I can't remember the last time we had a break. What was that like 3 months ago?
I wish I could say that I haven't been blogging because I was too busy being awesome, or even if just because I've been a neglectful, lazy bum (may still be some truth to that), but it's honestly just because I haven't had the time. If I get more than 6 hours of sleep on any given day, then yes, I've been neglectful, but when I'm only getting 3, 4 hours of sleep a day...I'm sure none of you would have had the time to read my entries in any case, so no hard feelings right? :]

As it's still January, I think I'll just pick up where I left off and try to finish off my 2010 Blog Brainstorm List. However, I think I'll just have to concede to the fact that I have way too many items on the list. I'm going to add a poll (or two) in the sidebar and I'll put up my ideas five (or ten) at a time, exactly the way that they appear on my list and in the same order, and hopefully you guys will vote, and then I'll write posts on the most popular entries.

at some point or other. Then, I'm certain that you are quite familiar with the plumber's catchphrase: "

. When I got home, I was on youtube and one of the featured videos was the 
, which believe me was much more enjoyable than any movie involving centipedes, human or not. For those that haven't heard of it, the premise of the movie is that there's a fake family, the Joneses, that poses as the perfect family in order to sell products. They push products such as cars, furniture, perfume, etc. It wasn't until the very end that Staci and I noticed that the movie was in fact pushing products to the viewer. We had just been talking about what a turn off it is when you see something in a movie and know some company paid big bucks to have it featured (ex. Kellogg's cereal on the table, etc). Well, the irony is that while the movie is saying how false item advertising is bad, the producers are doing that very thing through the movie. There were many moments during the movie in which I thought to myself wow, I wish I had that, or wouldn't it be great to have that job? The movie doesn't sugar coat with false brands and labels like Snapshot (aka Facebook), but rather advertise real company names like Dell, Audi, etc. If you've seen the movie or plan to, just think about it; it's really irony at its finest :P
!). I bought a few things (if you think you're going to go into a dollar store and save, you are sorely mistaken), but what I found most interesting was the medical section:
to check out if you're preggers. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't trust a $1 pregnancy test. My personal opinion:

. The obvious solution would be to just wear my glasses, but you see, I was wearing my contacts as a replacement for my glasses, so that's not going to work out. I've had contacts since 8th grade, but I only started wearing them lately for the following reasons:
on top of glasses, so I usually just wear contacts during the summer
from Sam's Club that are from 8th grade and defunct. The other I chipped the second week after getting them (the water drop everyone kept pointing out). I wore them for over a year without getting them fixed but they're officially broken now. The third pair was put through not only the 
but the the dryer as well...Needless to say, it didn't survive.
this year, I have requested that my parents get me glasses :)
