Hm

I guess I have been thinking about la Pingüinita a lot lately

Duh, duh, duh

Could I get paid to tell people this?

There’s no crying in baseball at work

Ughhh, Monday's! - w4m

Ugghhh to Monday's, right?!

Why do the weekends go by so fast? Another start to a wonderful work week! Hehehe. Yet here I am on Craigslist looking for a Monday morning distraction, I could definitely use some good conversation to help get through the day! Anyone else in the same boat, if so drop me a line.

I'm 36 and Hispanic, if it matters at all...

(Dream about therria.)
(Wake up thinking about Blondie.)
(Worry about Speed Bump all day...)

Watching 8-bit Mega Man vids on YouTube last night made me dream about Classic Macs with tiny screens.

(Oh, also, I think the screen was in colour (probably about a 2-3" screen!) and I remember one booted into DOS.
