The Side Dish: Mad Men Season Four Highlights. ... →

thesidedish: There used to be a time where Mad Men was on television. Even The Playboy Club and Pan Am now see like relics of a distant past, but fear not! Mad Men is back.

Here's Friday!

I’m all about picking up extra shifts these days. And Friday is no exception. I normally have zero hours, and now I have eleven: 8 AM - Noon 1 PM - 5 PM 6 PM - 9 PM AND this is the day after The Hunger Games midnight release. I HAVE SO MANY OPTIONS DURING MY TWO GAPS including but not limited to sleeping, showering, happy houring, or frolicking in the common. HAPPY FRIDAY!
