Blogging delays
Sunday afternoon a small tornado went through my area. Several trees were knocked down real close to my apartment building but the building and us are okay. Consumers energy said they have over 110,000 customers who are currently without power, so they have their hands full trying to fix it all. We called an automated line that told us our building is expected to be turned back on by 11pm Thursday. We are staying at Ryan's moms for now, and brought all of our fridge/freezer contents with us plus Read more [...]

Polar Pillow Review and Giveaway
One of the downsides of living in Michigan is we don't have much of a spring. In mid April, it snowed. Two weeks later, it was 80.

Petz Bunnyz Bunch Review
Nintendo Ds's seem to be on every kids wish list. My 7 year old sister recently got one, and has noticed that there are more "boy games" than "girl games." When I heard that Ubisoft was coming out with Petz Bunnyz Bunch game, where kids can care for a virtual pet bunny, I knew she'd love it. I was right. Every kid wants a pet but often times the idea of having a pet is much more fun than the responsibility of a real pet. That's why Petz Bunnyz is so great.

Exam Cram Gourmet Gift Basket (us/canada)
Sometimes, college is the farthest thing from fun or even enjoyable. Most notably, during exam week. I lucked out somewhat this semester, as two of my classes didn't have comprehensive exams, instead we just had a "regular" test that covered a few chapters, as the last class period. That took a bit of stress off, but even so, it's stressful waiting for your final class grade when you have so much money and time at steak. Plus, my professors always seem to throw on final projects, presentations, Read more [...]
