1. Ten Top Ten

So, to attempt to try to keep up with this blog, I have challenged myself to come up with ten Top 10's. Today is the first Top 10 list. Bet's on if I'll make it to 10?

I figured, to follow the theme of Spilly's Mindless Adventures, why not start off with the first part of that theme....Spilly!  Who IS Spilly?  Perhaps the Top 10 will help you get a better understanding.

For those of you who know "Spilly" well, feel free to add your comments.  Here goes....

Spilly's Top 10 Things to Spill
  1. Beer.
  2. Anything in a liquid form that goes into a cup or glass.
  3. The glass/cup itself.  Or multiple glasses/cups at the same time for that matter.
  4. Keys. Usually underneath my car seat or in the middle of the grocery store....or bar. Thankfully not down a sewage drain yet (knock on wood).
  5. Cell phone. Thank god for those new protector things. And especially for the pink ones  :)
  6. Sunglasses. Those things are scratched to hell!
  7. Ketchup squirted onto shirt while eating fastfood burger while driving vehicle. Usually on the way to important meeting or interview.
  8. Clothing in a store. I hate it when the clothes are barely hanging onto the hangers and then they fall on the floor and you have to pick them up, put them back on the hanger, then squeeze them onto the rack where it just took you forever to yank it out from. This especially sucks when its a piece of clothing you were never interested in, but managed to fall while you were looking at another piece of clothing.
  9. Toilet paper roll. I almost always manage to drop those things every time I change the roll. And then it's like, do you remove the "dirtied" paper? Or be lazy and not take the time and hope someone else uses it before you do?
  10. Whole self. I'm pretty klutzy and manage to spill myself on a regular basis. This includes falling on my face, falling on my back, running into poles, slicing my fingers, bruising my legs....you name it.
*Special mention goes to Tom Burney's futon my Sophomore year at Duke. I was in a frenzied, excited (i.e. drunk) mood and was bouncing on his futon when it broke in the middle and dropped me to the floor. It was then that I was first dubbed Spilly, by Mr. Burney himself.  Thanks TEB!

I forgot I had a blog!!


Holy hot dogs! I have a blog! Apparently I was having a very productive day at work when I created this blog 0:)

So I suppose now I should be writing some insightful crap that will make people want to read this. Hmmm.......

Ok, drawing a blank. I'm thinking I'm not going to be very good at this.

Well, I did get a new job today. I didn't want to tell anyone though, cause its really just a position as a new age lunch lady. HAHA! Also, Duke plays UNC today. I'm hoping to have some good content tomorrow after Duke obliterates Carolina. In the meantime, why not meditate on one of my favorite pictures....

Bored at work? Only have limited supplies to mess around with? That's ok, because with a sheet of paper, two pieces of tape, and some scissors, you too can look like Tyler Hansbrough!


They may have won the ACC tourny, but the Tar Heels still haven't won my respect :)
