25+35 things random and otherwise…
erika…
- is pretty sure that the random things list will continue to increase in number until it will take days at a time to complete them.
- has got to stop calling the KC (Knowledge Commons) the KFC because it is actually making her crave KFC, now that is some seriously subliminal advertising.

- is only on number three and can’t think of twenty-two other random things.
- ate a big salad for lunch and wishes more people would sign up for the food co-op.

- can’t believe that in April her furry man cat man will be eligible for “Senior” cat food.
- found the perfect sugar free gum flavor only to discover it has been discontinued and no she did not get it at Big Lots. Damn you Wrigley! (I want my midnight cool back now! And yes I did originally try it because I was pretty sure it would taste like after shave.)
- would like to get Rocko’s Modern Life on DVD and have a few Michael K. Young snow days so she can watch it all.
- is not happy about the choice Brandeis is making to close the museum and sell off the collection.

- is counting the days till she moves back to her old reference desk. All hail the KWDFAAL!
- wishes people wouldn’t over look the genius that is R.E.M.’s Green album.
- is glad to see that the sun is out and the smog is gone.
- is hoarding the last box of tissues, damn budget cuts.
- should not be giving relationship advice, but totally knows the deal with life coaches.
- has grand plans to learn French.
- can’t figure out why the salmonella scare made her crave Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

- still hasn’t made peace with Ferrara Pan for changing the name of Alexander the Grape candy to Grape Head.
- still gets misty when she sees Neco Wafers.
- does a lot of her grocery shopping at Big Lots.
- is sad knowing that all the cats of her childhood are gone.
- quotes from Dirty Harry, but has never seen the movie.
- is old enough to vote, drink, smoke, and need her own health insurance, but still frequently thinks: “what is wrong with all these grown-ups?”
- will always love the Muppets and is still a bit heart broken that she didn’t become a puppeteer.
- is frumpy and just can’t help it; or perhaps is just not interested in making that much effort when it comes to wrinkles, she just can’t seem to class things up so she might as well be comfortable.
- loves the sound of Warren Zevon’s voice.
