Digital Getdown

We just ordered pizza from Dominos online (Don’t judge. It’s raining. And its a holiday almost. Shut up.)

I haven’t done this in a long time and boy have things gotten more fancy.

After I put my order in and paid, a chart appeared that mapped the status of my pizza and which Domino employee was taking care of it.

Chan is making your order.

Chan just put your order in the oven.

Chan is checking the quality of your pizza.

Chan is looking for women who are cool with guys that live in their parent’s basement

Ok not that last one but that’s practically where it was going.

When we went in to pick it up, I smiled slyly at whom I assumed was Chan.

I can’t be sure but I think we kind of had something.

Pizza is sexy again,

Listening to: Who is more annoying: that Mary chick from So You Think You Can Dance or Paula from Idol?

On my mind: After Lauren and I polished off our pizza, we turned on the TV and 90210 was on. Pretty sure those girls never order Dominos.

If we both are single when we turn 30…

Last night one of my best friends told me she had a pact with our friend Dave that if they were both single when they turned 30 they would get married.

Now, I wasn’t born yesterday and I’ve heard my fair share of “Joey and Rachel”-esque premature betrothals (or as my friend Clare puts it, the eventual lowering of standards)

But I was afraid she was serious.

And Dave may very well be my red-headed arch-nemesis.

She went on, “I mean, if I can’t find anyone who wants to marry me in the next 4 years, I might as well marry Dave. He’s a good guy”

“BUT ITS TOO SOON!” I screeched, “WE NEED MORE TIME!” I continued dramatically. (Dave was, by the way, in the room with us. Grinning like the nemesis that he is)

After threatening to pull myself from the hypothetical wedding party, she agreed to reconsider.

But it got me thinking.

Do people really do this?

Or do they do it and not realize its what they’re doing (aka lowering their standards as Clare put it)?

And, for the record I do not think 30 is old, nor do I think it is the point where everyone should start freaking out and marry the first red head they find.

Thoughts? Stories?

Hit me,

On my mind: Product promoters on the street have a tough job. But this guy passing out instant coffee samples had the right idea. He walked right up to me looked me in the eye and handed me a handful of samples. I never stood a chance. But i just made a cup of it and cursed him bc it tastes like tin.

Listening to: The coffee maker beep. I made a huge mistake with the instant. I am often blinded by ‘free’.
