Great quote!  Reminds me of Gretchen Rubin’s personal commandment in The Happiness Project: Be Gretchen.  After reading that book, I have tried to adopt a similar commandment, Be Alexis, but it proves to be a struggle at times.
In a related note: The Happiness Project is a great read.  Definitely on my Recommend to Others list.

The Power of Introverts: A Manifesto for Quiet Brilliance

I found this to be a really interesting article and I totally plan to read Susan Cain’s book, QUIET: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking.

And yes, I am an introvert.

Be verwy verwy still and quiet…

If you are very still and quiet, you may catch me doing The Robot dance.

It’s probably more of a rusty robot but in my mind I’ve got the mad skills to serve you up something cold.

Word.

P.S.  Yes I did just use the phrase “Word.”  And, no we have not time-traveled to the 1990s. I just occasionally like to throw in that phrase to represent my generation and keep things spicy.

Feeling French….

I feel a little French every time I say, “Bichon Frise.”

Je m’appelle Fromage.

Feeling Nostalgic

As I brushed my teeth this morning, I heard the familiar tones of the Ghostbuster’s theme song playing on the television in my room.  That iconic electronic 80s melody made me think about the cartoon version of Ghostbusters that I loved so much and all of the other wonderful cartoons I grew up watching.  So for posterity sake, I am in the mood to list them here.
