The big news of today is we found a big flake of raisin bran crunch. I don't know if it's quite as big as the one featured in the coming link but it's pretty big. You can get some idea of what my life is like because I then proceeded to google for "largest flake" and "giant flake".

Well the bad news is that apparently big cornflakes are worth something but big flakes of raisin bran crunch are not, haha.

Nobody bought this raisin bran flake, but someone bought this cornflake for $1350 and some other people are bidding on this cornflake, it was only up to $25.49 when I looked but it could go higher.

I was surprised to see the Illinois cornflake go for so much, since it's not religious. That Virgin-Mary-burned-into-the-grilled-cheese-sandwich went for much more. Mmmmm, sacrilicious.

The thing is, some trivia buff bought it to show off as a cornflake shaped like Illinois, but now it's much more famous as the cornflake some idiot paid $1350 for.

Adventures with Free Desserts

Four recent adventures with free desserts: 1. We had not much to do on Saturday morning so, against our better judgement, we decided to go to the furniture store, who had sent us a coupon offering free breakfast and a free gift to "preferred customers". Breakfast turned out to be doughnuts. Go »

I love waking up early

I got up before 5, took a shower, did a bunch of my fun and addictive getting-free-stuff-on-the-internet activities, had breakfast, and went and found some treasures in Kameo, all before heading out to work at 7:50. That was awesome. We always go to bed before 10 anyway so what's the point hanging around in bed in the morning when I'm not tired. Go »

We had a nice thunder snowstorm on Tuesday evening. It was kind of surreal actually. I don't remember experiencing such odd weather before. Go »

Ghost of an Unkissed Kiss

As though I don't look bad enough for sharing information on my lame celebrity crushes, here's a real-life one, albeit a really old one. I'd forgotten that his full name was in the movie we watched the other day and maybe hearing his name was what got me started on this nostalgic path. He's got a common name. Go »

False Hope

So the guys' band had a show on Saturday and it went really well. A bunch of people came up to say they did a good job, and the headlining band (another local act) really liked the music and wants to do other shows together. And they even got paid! Go »
