I used to have a phone that was very very crappy! It was broken in half and the antenna came apart. I had lot of pictures on it and I had lots of good times with it but now it just couldn’t get a signal anymore. Now I have a new Nokia phone and I am very very happy, I just bought a new cell phone charm(?) for it, and I’m happy happy happy happy happy.

Create a business plan with 4 questions. Saturday, Aug 9 2008
Uncategorized 12:44 am
As you all know, I have been feebly trying to start a maid cafe in the area. But I don’t have any type of business plan. I need somthing to light a fire under my butt. So from my Google Reader I came across Lifehacker’s post about how to make a business plan from four questions. They are pretty simple questions in plain English. I hope they inspire me to get cracking.

I’m at Otakon right now, sneaking some on-line time before he comes back to the room. Since I got a great review from my job, it’s harder to get on-line to post. This was all and great when I have actual free time because I didn’t have a job. Now I remember why I can’t post like I used to. Anyway I hope to get some new posts up, maybe even a Otakon report . . .
Also Skyler turned two yesterday. I took her to the zoo last Wednesday. We got there late but it was fun to see all the animals that were outside. Now I can have actual conversation with her. I really should put her in school by now . . . Before I know it she would have learned how to read or something. She’s so amazing!

rant crime, icecream, rant 1:11 pm
It started with an unsettling premonition after I got hired at Ben and Jerry’s. This past Sunday it came true. Ben and Jerry’s got robbed at gunpoint. The first thing that came to mind was Skyler. Second was my parents. Third was Skyler’s father. We had a big argument about a week ago and we haven’t talked till recently. I wanted to apologize and if anything more than the robbers just taking the money from the register, I probably wouldn’t have the chance. Anyway, my co worker had quit on the spot which was OK because he really wasn’t a good worker anyway. I don’t care how scared you are of “being a snitch,” you don’t leave a lady alone after a robbery! Thankfully the nice exterminator guy stayed. Well after the police came I was overcome with emotion. This is why handguns should be banned in DC! Someone has not only threatened my life, but they invaded my sense of security. Ben and Jerry’s Dupont may have been robbed before but not all the while I was working there! Now I’m paranoid and I don’t like it.
I gave Skyler lots of kisses even though she was asleep from her holiday in Dover with my father and his girlfriend. I told her I loved her when she woke up the next day. Then I left an angry message on her father’s cell phone. After that I felt better.
Rejoice Dupont Circle! Monday, Jun 30 2008

For I am back (though I said I would never come back) at Ben and Jerry’s at Dupont Circle and it seems just in time, too. When I left, the Dupont Circle location was one of the top stores in DC in terms of customer service. Now I just learned that we have more complaints than any store in the area combined! Unacceptable! And we have gotten way dirtier. Cringe. So let’s pray for a great summer and me lots of money! Mama trying to go to Yaoicon!
My Naive Attempt at Environmentalism Monday, Jun 16 2008
rant environment, future, politics, poop, rant 3:23 pm
With everything going green and oil prices going up every week or so, I had an idea. With elections just around the corner, I thought it would be wise for the next president to adopt an environmental policy that would ease the financial pains of Americans. One way is to recycle everything we use. And I mean EVERYTHING. From that apple core, to that plastic water bottle. From that those grass clippings, to the poop we flush down the toilet everyday.
With more than 300 million people in this country, that is a lot of poop! Instead of taxing our food supply to make bio-fuel, we should be using our sewage to fuel our cars. If we can do with cows, why not humans? Even GM has found out that recycling is not only good for the environment but it’s also good for the bottom line. Now if the government will provide some sort of incentive programs to the average American, we wouldn’t have to rely on the Middle East or any conflicted nation for oil.
We can make plastics out of plants. We have for option for electricity, from solar to geothermal. This is supposed to be the future for Cheese and Rice! The faster we can get through the energy crisis, the faster we can get flying cars and holograms!
Goodbye Tim Sunday, Jun 15 2008
News and politics and rant election, meetthepress, News, obituary, politics, rant, sadness 3:27 am
When I saw I didn’t believe it. Tim Russert is dead. I really like the man. Even though Meet the Press is really boring, I would alway listen to him speak. He was my main source of election news. I try to watch to even when a big election wasn’t going on. I feel bad now. I would fall asleep waiting for him to come on. Now he’ll never be on again.

I just added the survey results for the GWU Anime Society and the DC Anime Club. I did these surveys in 2007, back when I was still on my starting a new business high. I hope you enjoy them.
