I’ve never participated in any of these things, but I’d really like to try out some of the group rides/events. Who wants to join me? Schedule is on the bike fest website.

Aziz Ansari And Danny McBride Team Up for Untitled... →
azizisbored:
Very excited to announce that Danny McBride and I are starring in a new untitled film together! Harris Wittles from Parks and Recreation is writing the script based off a pitch we developed from an idea I came up with Matt Hubbard, a great writer from 30 Rock. That is all very confusing, but we are all very excited about this idea and think it’ll be great.
Merriweather Post-Pavilion
.. is a pretty nice place to see an outdoor concert. Not exactly sure why Animal Collective chose to name one of their best albums after the place, but that’s beside the point. It was the key reason for Scott and myself to road trip it to the Baltimore-DC area this past weekend. My Morning Jacket is on tour again and this stop was the closest they were making it to Pittsburgh. And I...
Weekend with the fam
I don’t make it to see family as often as I should sometimes, but after a treacherous winter of no travel and a busy spring with goings-on every weekend, I cancelled a few plans this past weekend to visit my home”town”. My quality time with my family included hanging out with long lost relatives. After my mom’s side of the family had a spat in the late 90s, there were many people I had not...

25 Things You May Not Know About What Nurses Know →
Nurses have earned more respect in recent years than before, but unless you’re in health care, not many understand just how much we do in addition to doling out medications. Yeah, a couple of them are a little cheesy (i.e. the flair they discuss in #15), but every other one rings true, daily. ESPECIALLY time management, science, accountability and patient advocacy.
Attn people who ride bikes
I’m excited to see how the google maps integrates bike directions with their new “bike there” feature

Also, this app seems pretty sweet for those of us with iPhones.

Damn you laptop, why are you being lame and mysteriously deleting things for no reason? While we’re at it, why are you so slow and sluggish? I can surf the web whilst listening to music faster on my iPhone.
I think it’s time for an upgrade soon.

Modern Family
I was starting to hear a lot of buzz about Modern Family, which premiered on ABC in September of 2009. Thanks to my crafty boyfriend, I watched the first couple episodes at my own leisure this morning.
While it doesn’t quite (yet) live up to the comparisons of Arrested Development, it is smart and funny and I plan on watching more. Old episodes can can be streamed on abc.com so I...
Started a tumblr. I like how easy it is to post. Am having difficulties customizing. Regardless, here you go http://kpoo.tumblr.com/
Lawrenceville offers just about everything I need within a few minutes walking distance… except for fresh produce. Bah.

House.
I don’t know how it took me so long to watch this show, but I love it. I feel so behind seeing as it began in 2004 and it’s now in its 6th season. But I’ll catch up. I love how Dr. House is a Sherlock Holmes type character. It is a little overly dramatic at times, but it’s fun watching House and his team trying to piece together these crazy diagnoses.

Ringing in 2010.
New Years Eve ended up fairly low-key, but enjoyable. I wish things would have worked out so that more people would have ended up in the same place, but what can ya do?
Started the evening off at Church Brew Works for a dinner that was fancier than what I initially had in mind, but I think everyone enjoyed themselves. I splurged on cuppycakes from Dozen since it was Scott’s bday. They...
