It’s been a while since I shared some tunes with you. Mostly because I haven’t had time to really listen and discover anything new and exciting.
I created a “Super Lame Pop Music” station on Pandora about 3 weeks ago and I’ve been listening to it at the gym because it [...]
HEY. Math geeks. General peeps.
It’s Pi Day. March 14. 3.14.

I’m going for a pi mile run after work today. Okay, likely a bit longer than that, but at least 3.14 miles.

Now that I’ve [...]
So I just moved back to Ames, IA. From THE BIG CITY OF DES MOINES. Which really isn’t that big. Unless you’re from Iowa. Then it’s like acres and acres of corn fields, but without the corn, and with buildings and streets.
I used to shop a lot at Gateway Market and
In typical Michael Jackson style, today is probably going to have a hint of craziness surrounding it. It’s the one-year anniversary of his death.
I’m not mourning or anything — though I may or may not be wearing my Beat it Necklace that I made last year around his death. I’m also likely [...]
So I recently got a hold of my hard drive that has ALL of my projects on it from college. My ex-boyfriend had it because he was trying to fix it for me, but didn’t succeed. Well, maybe he did because I got it to work again.

I was wishfully thinking and built my package for the iPhone I may never get.
Anyway, at the end of the checkout I got the following message:
My friend Steph has been blogging about errors like these that she’s found lately, which sparked this post. Also, it doesn’t help that I’ve [...]
Waiting for Kasey to call. We never did do anything for our 3-year anniversary so we are going to do something tonight. Not sure what, but I really don’t care because I just want to spend time with him.
Yesterday we took a few pictures on Photo Booth like we used to all the time. [...]
…you know the weiner dog had a good day when you come home to an empty chip bag in the hallway and an unwrapped scented candle.
I’ve been blogging quite bit lately and that’s because I’ve been in Ames with the B-to-the-Eff. I came down Thursday night before a big snowstorm to go out with some graduating friends, got super sick with a stomach flu or food poisoning of some sort and couldn’t go, stuck around for rounds 2 and 3 [...]

Hi there. I'm Calee. Not Caylee. Also known as chimes or the chimes. I'm 27, a designer, a runner, a self-proclaimed fitness queen, a craftster, a foodie, a music snob — some might call me a hipster. Here's the unabridged version.
