  • I just can’t believe it: Dexter will be getting it’s own video game. What will the concept be? Will it suck? I want to be excited but I’m nervous. Don’t ruin Dexter for me folks. Oh, and hello to everyone who is searching for Dexter and finding me!

\

  • Haha: A humping dog USB memory stick. I love it. I’d be sure to use this in class, at the library, at dinner with the grandfolks. Everywhere!
  • \

  • Craving: Flicka laptop bags.
  • \

      \

    • This would scare me when I walked into my bathroom at night. Hell, even when I’m in the shower I’d get startled – obviously forgetting it was there when I walked in.

    • Silly theories: Get robbed a lot? Blame your iPod. Maybe.

    \

      \

    • Idiots: In order to prevent waxters (thats people who walk and text at the same time) from walking right into a pole, Britain has padded their street lights.

  • Wondering if that mug of coffee on your desk is still hot? Don’t want to risk burning yourself by grabbing it? Have no fear, the hot/cold mug is here to save the day!

    P.S. Oh, and uh, I got into UIC. (This will probably show up on the next 34789 blog entries.)

    P.P.S. What the eff is going on with the font size here? I’m too lazy to fix it.

    I don’t even want to know what the concept might be for that Dexter videogame.

    I hope it’s not “walk around, kill people, don’t get caught.” Great show. Stupid game.

    I love the dog humping USB stick. And now that you put it up there, I really want a Flicka bag too!

    (message from the S.O.: “Please stop doing these posts, she wants EVERYTHING you put up here and she doesn’t NEED a new lap top bag, I just bought her one!”)

    Aren’t those bags gorgeous?! They’re just in time for spring!
    \

    Vanessa’s S.O. – I can’t. I’m sorry. And one can never have too many bags. Seriously, check my closet for proof :D

    Bears bring back Booker, decline to re-sign Ayanbadejo

    \
    LAKE FOREST, Ill. — The Chicago Bears signed free agent wide receiver Marty Booker on Tuesday for a second stint with the club in an effort to help replenish a depleted receiving corps.

    2007 Statistics
    \
    Rec: 50
    \
    Yards: 556
    \
    Avg.: 11.1
    \
    TD: 1Booker, who was the Miami Dolphins’ leading receiver last season, signed a two-year deal with Chicago. Financial terms were not disclosed.
    \

    \
    The Bears had already lost their top two leading wide receivers since the start of free agency. Bernard Berrian signed a six-year, $42 million free agent contract with the the Minnesota Vikings last week. The Bears also cut veteran wide receiver Muhsin Muhammad with three years left on his contract.
    \

    \
    The Bears also announced the team has decided not to re-sign Pro Bowl special teams free agent, Brendon Ayanbadejo. The team’s contract offer to Ayanbadejo has been pulled.
    \

    \
    Ayanbadejo had said during the 2007 regular season that he wanted a deal that would make him the highest-paid special teams player in the league.
    \

    \
    Booker, a 1999 third-round pick by the Bears out of Louisiana-Monroe, had 50 catches for 556 yards last season.
    \

    \
    He is fifth in Bears history in catches with 315 in five seasons from 1999-2003. He was traded to Miami during the 2004 preseason when the Bears acquired defensive end Adewale Ogunleye.
    \

    \
    Booker’s 3,684 receiving yards are sixth in Bears history, while he ranks ninth in franchise history in touchdown catches with 23.

    I like the humping dog, much better than the padded pole. There shouldn’t even be a name for walking while texting, let alone a “solution” for it.

    I don’t think the word really exists for walking while texting. I just made that up – at least I hope I did!
