Uhm...

My company just laid off a bunch of people today - 1 from my department. I was one of the last people hired - can you imagine how nervous I am right now?

New Orleans - Couch/floor needed

roadtrip2009:

We’re getting ready to tie up loose ends for our trip and our last big thing to set straight is a place to stay in New Orleans. We’re looking for a couch or floor to crash on for a night or two.

Let us know if you can help us out!

They are staying with me when they come to Austin, but they still need a place for New Orleans. Know anyone?

I broke down and got one. Not going to lie, I am hoping to somehow meet Shaq.

My favorite deal from today’s Shop it to Me comes from Free People - not positive when I’d ever actually wear these, but they are only $9.95, regularly $24

Busted!

I ran through a toll booth and have been awaiting this bill. Smallest check I think I’ve ever written.

Oh, hi, Google camera truck! Nothing to see here, just going for a little stroll in town with my sniper rifle. Hey, any idea where the clock tower is? Hahaha, just kidding. Any window on the third floor or higher facing the post office or middle school will do just fine. Have a great day!

On another note, [my husband] said I woke up in the middle of the night and asked him for a dictionary. I have no idea why.

I found this buried in the comments of Sydney’s tumblr and it made me lol because I do weird shit in my sleep that I don’t remember. Jake could probably write a book. His favorite is when I had been completely in sleep zone of snoring and such for hours and I turn over and say ‘Ugh, I haven’t fallen asleep yet!’

A friend sent me this thing called “Shop It To Me” over a month ago and I was about to write it off as a stupid thing that stupid girls do (get sales emailed to you), but it has proven to be pretty awesome. I sent it to some girls I know and since 10 of them signed up, I got a $10 Urban Outfitters gift card - and all I had to do was sell out my friends!! Every 10 people you get to sign up, you get another $10 gift card. Sweet deal.

Anyhoo, to prove that it’s a pretty neato idea of getting brands you like emailed to you when they go on sale, I’ll try and pick out my favorite from each email I get (twice a week) from Shop it to Me.

This scarf above is from Banana Republic and on sale for $29.99. Not much of a sale, but it’s marked down from $50. Seriously, who is paying $50 for a scarf?

WE NEED TO DO AN AUSTIN MEET-UP ALREADY

seagull:

WHY HASN’T THIS BEEN DONE YET. Well there was that one at SXSW last year that was really for all the NY media people…. that doesn’t count. And I wasn’t there so you know it wasn’t a party. Hurr hurr.

ANYWAY LET’S DO THIS.

If you are interested, reblog or email me at dorkyturtle at gmail. Be sure to tell me what night of the week you’d prefer. A fancy MSPaint flier may happen if you play your cards right.

If I don’t hear from anyone I’ll just head to Barfly’s next Thursday and cry into my double rum and cokes that only cost $4 a piece.

Kevin is having one the first weekend of SXSW - It’s a tweet up/tumblr meet up. I won’t be able to go because I’ll be out of town, so I’d be all about having another one.

Taxes

jgh:

This is my first year of filing taxes on my own. Internet: do you use a tax service or software like TurboTax.com? How do you recommend an abstract thinker parse through the bean-counting?

I’ve used TaxActOnline.com the last 2 years - really easy to do and for a small fee they will file everything for you and get your return directly deposited in your account in about a week.
