Yep, that's why I'm telling you.

I enjoyed Adventureland. Had a few qualms but overall it was good. I give Hot Topic a month before they start selling the “GAMES games games” t-shirts. Not a doubt in my mind.

The new crack

I am becoming obsessed with crossword puzzles. They are so addicting. Can’t stop. Need more puzzles. And scrabble. That too.

This IS in english right?

I just witnessed the most spectacular kicking of my own ass. My anthro test was fucking RIDICULOUS. I got the test in my hands and started laughing. I was so fucked. I heard people behind me whispering, “SERIOUSLY?!?” and so like a BAMF, I guessed 95% of it and kissed that bitch goodbye. and by bitch, I mean my GPA.

Spring ahead, go to hell.

Daylight savings has got me all out of whack. This weekend has been a trip. Gone so soon and now all I have ahead is lots of school and paper writing and tests. Damn. In unrelated news, I’m reading the Dark Tower series by Stephen King and totally loving it. And for anyone who like film-noir type stuff, I suggest you check out the movie Following. It’s one of Christopher...

worldholdon: I need to “express” my preferences for the following trips: Trip 1: Thailand OR Nepal OR Timor Leste OR Cambodia OR Vietnam Trip 2: Egypt OR Morocco Keep in mind that I’m working in the capital during the week, so ease of weekend trips should factor in the decision. What say you? I know at least a few of you have been to at least a few of the above countries…Lauren? Fern? Kyle?...

I feel bad for the goat.

“The Romans used tickling as a cruel punishment. On the scaffold the soles of the victim’s feet were covered with a salt solution so that a goat, attracted by the salt, would lick it off with his rough tongue and continually tickle the skin. By doing so, the salty skin was gradually rasped away. Then, the wounded skin would again be covered with the biting salt solution- ad infinitum,...

Funny or Die

“Do people really die laughing? If so, it would be interesting to know if an autopsy would reveal a parasympathetic death. Such a ‘death by relaxation’ is characteristic of rats put in stressful conditions after having learned that they can do nothing to help themselves. They seem to simply ‘give up’. Apparently, death results from helplessness due to parasympathetic...

25.

1. I am usually reading 3 or 4 books at a time because I like to keep my options open depending on my mood. 2. I don’t have cable TV anymore but I think the batman beyond series was way beyond its time. Genius. I love batman and superman. 3. I have three different game consoles in my room and the only one hooked up to my tv right now is my SNES. Super Mario World FTW. 4. I am pretty sure...

Almost died today. Again.

Sometimes I wonder if I’m being punished karmically but that is just too self-centered to be taken seriously. Car accident. I’m fine. Just scary as fuck.

Stuffing the proverbial cat back in the bag

One of my holiday highlights so far: Shopping in Fry’s and this woman walking past me with a little girl in her arms. The toddler (infant?) was crying and this wasn’t just a whimpering crying, it was a screaming crying. The mother was rocking the child and the dad leans over the girl and says “I’m gonna put you up for adoption.” I had to run into the camera aisle...

Once again, my friendliness has presented itself...

When I was a kid, being a friendly or gregarious person was generally looked upon favorably as a way to make friends or meet interesting people. Now it only seems to get me into trouble. When did that happen?

At least I did it My Waaaaayy...

I really have to stop hiding out from my thesis. It’s due Friday and all I feel like doing is goofing off. As if I didn’t do that enough this quarter. Seriously, Erika. Stop listening to Frank Sinatra, browsing ebay, and reading “The Minotaur Takes a Cigarette Break”. Very Bad. Seriously now.

I am going to five different thanksgivings today. Epic. Be good to each other.
