> [@purplehorseshoe](#): > > I told this to my co-workers for an end-of-day laugh. It worked. šŸ˜ƒ Thanks for sharing - did you come up with it? It sorta sounds like a nursery rhyme. My brother had it on his facebook status and I stole it from him. I also sent it around via email to various people at work, and added a picture of a glowworm with his bum all lit up. Glad you enjoyed it. I thought it was cute. šŸ™‚ ---

I bought a [Snoopy alarm clock](http://www.amazon.com/Original-Snoopy-Peanuts-Wacky-Waker/dp/B0043U8JFG/ref=pd_sim_sbs_t_1) - it plays the Lucy and Linus song to wake you up. Unfortunately, it ticks - I donā€™t like a ticking clock in my bedroom. Iā€™l give it a try tonight and see how it goes. ---

Why do so many people only feel guilty when they get caught? I need to do laundry. My friend told me last night she would do anything to go back to $20k/year, renting, and being happy. I need a bike lock. Whatā€™s a good substitute for shampoo? ---

I ate a cupcake and it was delicious. Why does this item I ordered have a package tracking number if it is not actually eligible for package tracking? I feel as though I am being toyed with. I donā€™t think anyone in this class is actually taking notes on the lecture. ---

Free food is tastier than paid-for food. Thanks, over-planned-for meeting! Co-worker, pick up your damn feet. I can hear you shuffling all the way across the suite. > [@living\_in\_hell](#): > > ā€¦ Whatā€™s a good substitute for shampoo? Going no-poo - Google it or poke around for that search term here. Basically, use baking soda to clean your hair, and diluted cider vinegar to conditio it and counteract the alkalinity. Rince well - donā€™t want a science-fair volcano on your scalp. ---

Huh. The camera lens on my phone is cracked. _takes picture of own foot_ _Huh_. Seems to make no difference. I was briefly sad/panicked, but ā€¦ I guess the damage doesnā€™t matter. And I have a nifty photo of the top of my metatarsals. ---
