In the brownies vs. exercise battle royale..

Brownies was clearly victorious with 6 votes

Both! came in 2nd with 4 votes (it's all about balance; did you know that if you eat something especially delicious while standing that it doesn't count as much..yep, trust me)

1 person would like ice cream instead and I think that's fair.

Exercise did not place, because, why would it?

*

I would like a brownie right now, although it would likely destroy the delicate balance that my stomach and I have currently struck; this is neither here nor there because there are no brownies available to me.

I do not currently wish to exercise either.

I don't know if you can tell, but I've been struggling for poll topics lately and I want to deliver for you, dear readers, but like regular blog topics, which I've also been lacking (clearly) I really need to be inspired to offer something up here.

So...new poll(s) up and they're about inspiration; mine and yours.

'80s Dances: How To Do The Thriller

june the absurd

Wishing won't make it so!

I wish it wasn't so hot in my apartment.

I wish, when I finally have loonies, that the washing machine wasn't already taken.

I wish my sensitive skin formulated-for-the-face sunscreen didn't sting my eyes so much.

I wish all buses were air conditioned.

I wish I was still as cute as I was when I was little.

I wish I had a set with those little corn forks.

I wish this guy wasn't using an electric drill on his nose on my teevee. (and he got through to the next 'round, good times)

I wish my bathroom sink wouldn't stop up so much.

I wish academic libraries weren't posting part time jobs.

I wish I had a few more pant hangers.

Star light, star bright,
The first star I see tonight;
I wish I may, I wish I might,
Have the wish I wish tonight.

Out-of-Context-Text: The Ongoing Series

Yo cupcake! Where is you at?

I just had two hot bus drivers in a row!

There's rice and noodle bowls, soup, dim sum, tempura , teryaki.

I'm just going to have some cereal.

I'm on the go train and I'm pretty sure that the conductor is using a fake british accent to announce stuff.

I'm drinking a bottle of your arch nemesis.

I'm doing a word search about deli meats which I found under my desk at work.

Is a hummingbird a bird or an insect?

Wow that is one crazy fan.
