Buggheart @Buggheart (445) • United States 26 Sep 07

I always knew that I was a candle freak but today I realized how much I really love them. I work at home and part of my morning routine (after showering, turning on the TV, and firing up my laptop) is to light the candle next to...

Why do they have to be so naggy???

Buggheart @Buggheart (445) • United States 19 Sep 07

I'm talking about the subject of upselling. I think one of the original nag tactics was "you want fries with that?" But now it's everywhere and you just can't get out of a store without being nagged! If you buy two more of...

Is it safe to eat these?

Buggheart @Buggheart (445) • United States 17 Sep 07

Ever since I got food poisoning over 10 years ago I've been really weird about food and germs. I have to put food away right away. If it sits out for an hour I throw it away. I know that's excessive but that one incident really...

What product would you do an informercial for?

Buggheart @Buggheart (445) • United States 21 Aug 07

Informercials. Love em, hate em, but I always find myself sucked into watching them. I still watch the Magic Bullet Blender infomercial when it's on and I own the darn thing. In fact, I burned one out and had to get a new one...

Today I spent cleaning my living room and as I was sorting my box of DVDs and putting them back in alphabetical order I thought about my favorite movies ever. There are several movies that I watch every time I'm flipping channels...

Buggheart @Buggheart (445) • United States 8 Aug 07

I remember way back when I was a kid and I had one of those pink diaries with the lock that I got from the Hallmark store. Did you have one of those? The pages were so small I could barely write in them and half the time I had...

Buggheart @Buggheart (445) • United States 8 Aug 07

I don't watch much TV but for some reason I'm really excited for the fall TV season to begin. I don't know what's gotten into me! I should be trying to hold onto summer knowing that fall means another terrible Michigan winter is...

Who's the boss???

Buggheart @Buggheart (445) • United States 8 Aug 07

I am frustrated today. For the project I'm working on now, it is a very small team and I have been placed in the position of lead. I don't like it. I like to just sit and do my assigned work, get it done by the deadline and then...

Do you ever wonder how your life would be different?

Buggheart @Buggheart (445) • United States 5 Aug 07

Do you ever wonder how your life would be different if only one small thing were different? I think about this all the time. For example, I was born at 6am on December 2nd but the cutoff to start kindergarten is December 1st....
