Possibly the saddest niche greeting cards ever

Spotted this afternoon at Target, sadly.

Chia Homer Update

I know everyone has been waiting with bated breath for an update on Chia Homer's growth.  As you can see, he's looking pretty sharp!  What I particularly like about this Chia Homer is that he seems determined not to grow hair where Actual Homer does not have hair (even though there are places to spread Chia Seeds).  It's almost uncanny!

Six-Burgh!

Last night was the Super Bowl (and the first day I failed to blog since starting this new project). Jess and I are die-hard Steelers fans. One of my worst childhood memories (right up there with Sid Bream sliding into home to keep the Pirates out of the World Series) is Neil O'Donnell throwing the interception to give Super Bowl XXX away to the Cowboys. I approach a Steelers Super Bowl appearance with equal parts optimism and anticipation that something bad will happen. Fortunately, all is well this morning in Steeler Nation.

Some highlights from our Super Bowl party:

1. No haters. The last time Pittsburgh played in the Super Bowl, there were a number of jerks who could care less about football who rooted for Seattle just to get my goat. Not this year. In fact, Steeler-haters with money on the game were even moderately sympathetic when the going got tough for the Steelers.

2. Food. I made chili. Jess made crab dip. Rashaad brough wings from Ponderosa. Everyone pitched in and the spread was excellent. No one went hungry, that is for sure.

3. A lot of our guests really got excited for the 3D commercials at halftime. A little too excited . . .

4. Have I mentioned that the Steelers won? Woot!

More fun from the College of Business

Two questions:
1. Why is her hip talking?
2. She looks a little like she is flipping the bird, right? (Thanks Jess!)

I know it is a blurry picture. The iPhone isn't exactly the best camera ever, and it is awkward taking a picture of an office.

Chia Homer

My in-laws got me a Chia Pet Homer Simpson for Christmas. So far he is looking pretty good!

Today's work

One of the buildings in my residence hall area is being renovated, so this bulletin board shows the paint colors, carpet samples, etc. Exciting stuff!

Lamest Candy Dish Ever!

I know that a basket full of Saltine's would really motivate me to learn more about internship opportunities.
