The Future of Romance

lfarm:

A friend and I were discussing at lunch the seeming death of romance among young people in their 20’s. I hadn’t really given it much thought until she posed the question: “When is the last time a guy put in the effort to plan an evening of surprises, or cooked a dinner, or found a fun event for you two to do together?” Or for that matter, when did I? I don’t expect those sorts of things and I do not believe that dates of this kind are totally neccessary, especially in the beginning of a relationship. But, upon further reflection, I used to think they were. I used to anticipate what “he” would come up with next and loved thinking of creative ways to show I cared, and was interested in caring more. So I wonder, what changed? When did putting in a little extra effort fall by the wayside? Maybe if we all attempted to be a bit more obvious, we wouldn’t so often misinterpret intentions.

So that being said, my friend has decided to romance her man of the minute. No doubt about it, she’s pulling out the big guns and I’ll be damned if he doesn’t respond how we want him to.

I have to agree with lfarm.  I really don’t expect those kinds of things anymore…but it doesn’t mean I don’t want them:)

Muxtape + Help

Does anyone know why when I try to play songs on muxtape it will play the first one on a playlist, but then stops??  It will load the others to 100% when I click on them, but they won’t play (it’s been happening for the last 2 weeks).  It’s getting very frustrating b/c I had become dependent upon listening at work and now I’ve become incredibly unproductive! help please!! :)

Oh and I’ve e-mailed muxtape, but no response:(

muxtape

Is it not working for anyone else?  I was happily listening when all of a sudden songs stopped playing…I’ve tried to play many different playlists and they load, show the songs, but don’t play…

since feeling is first

since feeling is first

who pays any attention

to the syntax of things

will never wholly kiss you;

wholly to be a fool

while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,

and kisses are a better fate

than wisdom

lady I swear by all flowers. Don’t cry

-the best gesture of my brain is less than

Your eyelids’ flutter which says

We are for each other: then

Laugh leaning back in my arms

For life’s not a paragraph

And death I think is no parenthesis

e.e. cummings

This poem always reminds me to just stop with the over-intellectualizing already, but it also makes me sad that I have to be reminded.

I really like this…and needed it this morning

Wine sounds wonderful right now (work is not so wonderful today)…I can’t wait to go home and have five one or two nice big glasses

Dear work team members,

When we have a team lunch outing, such as the one today which was held at the Olive Garden, can we please not leave to go and eat at 11am? Here are my reasons:

1. I just ate breakfast

2. The caffeine has barely had a chance to start working it’s magic.

3. I normally don’t eat until 1:30

4. We arrive back at the office by 1:00, I’m full, but will be starving again by 3:30

5. It totally ruins my day/afternoon making it seem never ending.

Thanks so much!

Jess

oh and P.S. can we do these on Fridays!!??? So I don’t feel guilty about a totally unproductive afternoon.

Please help...

hydeordie:

I need some hangover solutions ASAP. I feel like crap. Tequilla was involved. So if you have any failsafe ideas, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE email me, or reblog this. I need serious help here.

Your favorite Hyde,

Hyde

I hate having hangovers at work…but somehow they just keep happening:) Here are my suggestions:

-Lemon Lime Gatorade in addition to some type of caffeinated beverage

-A greasy bagel with egg cheese and meat

-a nap at lunch time (or as early as you can leave the office for “lunch”)

-Try to stay really busy, but if it’s a serious, like going to die kind of hangover just post a lot of random/not very coherent posts on tumblr

-Fake a migraine and leave work early
