Brianne's Profile

Yeah, these tips are going to help much since my new apartment has no thermostat or air conditioning. We've got heat but it's only "on" and "off".

I wish I could convince the bf to take shorter showers. He was complaining the other day about running out of hot water before the end of the shower and I weasled out of him that he takes 30 minute showers some days. He doesn't seem to understand about the drought and the gas bill. Maybe that's because his company hasn't just cut him back to 32 hours like mine did.

I once did a site inspection of an apartment building that had fancy laundry machines that called your apartment when your cycle was finished.

But seriously? Just go to a laundromat. You'll be done much quicker and it's cheaper for us since the rip-off machines at our complex are old and can't dry a small load of laundry in under two cycles.

Reusable bags at the grocery store cost $1.00 or $1.50, hold more than one plastic bag, and will last for well more than six trips to the store. That's a cost savings in the long run for anyone, poor or wealthy.

Right now, Ralph's gives you five cents back for every reusable bag you use and three cents for every plastic or paper bag you reuse. I wish more stores would do that but I guess they no longer have any need.

mooncalf, they just started a tram from Union Station to Dodger Stadium for all home games throughout the end of the season.

Sorry, but that e-mail forward isn't entirely true:

(My boss sent that out to the company last week.)

I recommend 1-800-GOOG-411 and Google text though.

This is last week's news. If I remember correctly, it was just a one week or one day ordinance to give credence to the kid's request. Seems like a nice idea to me. I'm always embarassed when I accidentally swear in front of children.

You know what it won't cure? The toothpaste cap my boyfriend pulled out of his pipes under his bathroom sink. He had to take the thing apartment to find the culprit.

I started and practically finished the "homo sweet homo" design for my manager.
