Ranty goodness
I think this psychology prof works down the hall from me. At the very least, she's definitely in the same building. Clearly, she's been studying me, because she's sure got my number. I am definitely an "overthinker", always have been. Maybe I should check out her book.
On a ranty note, Dannon yogurt changed their packaging lately, which included changing the logo on the cup and such. Also, they dropped the amount of yogurt in the cup from 8 ounces to 6--without making the cup any smaller. On the side of the cup, it reads: "Room in every cup for your favorite mix-ins... create your own yogurt experience!" Did I mention that it cost the same as it did when it was 8 ounces? Yeah, my yogurt experience is now going to include switching to a brand that isn't trying to rip me off.
On another ranty note, academics clearly are not cash-handlers, or else why was I faced with seeing quarters mixed with dimes mixed with nickels while I tried to do the bookkeeping for our study this morning? Here's a hint: change is sorted for a reason. Just because it all looks silver does not mean it all goes together. The me who used to be a bank teller and the me who used to work with accountants spent my first hour at work screeching in outrage.
