Found an app in the App Store that allows me to "play" the Powerball and Mega Millions lotteries without spending any money.

But man... if some of the numbers I've picked end up winning those jackpots...

Brought my dog to the park yesterday. My girlfriend and I have been trying to get more comfortable with her off the leash (we live in the city) in parks, so we've been doing it more often. The pup's been good so far, so I decided to test how good she was.

We walked from one area of the park to the other to see if she would follow. She did. We made sure she could refocus on us while playing. She could. To top it all off, when we wanted to go, she only needed to be told once to come over and have the leash put back on.

Guys, I can't even begin to describe how much of a fixer-upper this dog was when we adopted her from the shelter. So when she was perfect yesterday, I was legitimately like

Earning the absolute trust and loyalty of a dog

Supervisor: I've made security rewind the tapes for me and saw that you left at 4:25. You're on thin ice. Would you like me to report you?

Me: Go ahead

Dear god PLEASE have this man embarrass himself by actually reporting me, I have so much ammo on this idiot it isn't even funny.

Usually the first few months at an entry level job is a probationary period so it would be best to just stay the whole shift.

In the real world, a new hire would get fired if the supervisor just finds them annoying. Despite how much ammo you're packing.

Just started doing my taxes.

For years I have been freaked out by the idea that hair could get behind your eyeball and form hair mats and one day you'd pull at a little hair and entire mat would come with it or that you'd die and your eyes would rot away leaving little hair mats in your eye sockets only to be found by treasure seekers who come searching for your gold. Today I faced my fear and googled it and apparently it is impossible.

I did that last year and my sister freaked out.

I also got depressed that so few people knew my birthday. A few people wrote email, asking if they had my birthday correct, because facebook wasn't confirming it. In the end, I decided I'd rather have 50 vapid well-wishes than a half dozen sincere but confused emails.

I still factor in 8 hours of sleep because if you want me and my design skills at their best you're gonna pay me while I'm sleeping.

Edit: Also, I still have a full time job so I value my weekends (the only part of the week I do freelance work) highly.

Edit2: Also also, I could technically knock the whole project out in less than 8 hours and still get $500.

Recently hired as the Product Manager of a digital ticketing company in Nashville. Real exciting concept, but it needs a heavy visual overhaul that I hope to oversee.

Case was pushed AGAIN to March because my results are lost. If they aren't back by March, the case will be tossed.

Very low on money at the moment but I'll be getting a steady income soon, and my girlfriend and I seem to be doing really well

A Popeyes opened up here recently and apparently it's jam packed. Few minutes ago I was having a conversation with a couple people - an the older secretary lady and one of the other guy guys who works here.

Black Guy: I kinda want to try Popeyes now...I've never been
Old Lady: I drove past the Popeyes a couple days ago
Me: I heard the lines are huge
Old Lady: Seriously. It looked like Black Friday.
Black Guy:
