incapacitation by scantronization is over for the moment. i've got my wits about me again, or close enought to be a half-wit at least. i consumed 4 jello shots on thursday, courtesy of longhorngrl (which were uber wonderful by the way). they were so good, i didn't even get to finish my bedtime prayer before i succumbed to a mild form of inebriety ( ( Read more... )

nothing better than teen dramas and stovetop roasted marshmallows. gas stoves are best, but if you don't have one and your desperate for a hit of the toasted coat and creamy gooey goodness, use a candle or one of those things that you light up under buffet dishes to keep them warm. and under no circumstances do you ever spear the marshmallow ( Read more... )

i was in a houseboat and a secret agent in a wetsuit was waterskiing in our wake. right behind us was a big cruise ship that strangely resembled a cargo boat. we were going to mexico. our houseboat was riding along the coast, so close to land that i could see the the big ass fish with tiger stripes which had beached themselves on the muddy shore ( Read more... )

andrea made deep dish pizza for dinner. it was good, lots of veggies and cheese. so we shopped for nuts last night. the bulk foods aisle was so awesome and so beyond my decision-making abilities. i ended up gawking at each bin for eternity before deciding on the student's mix and the tamari mix, both which were mixes of basically the same nuts and ( Read more... )

i can see that this livejournal thing is going to get very time-consuming. it's like hot chocolate in antarctica, can't get enough of it. so people say pistachios. i shall look for some tomorrow. and i just experienced the wrath of andrea. i wasn't in the line of fire, more like a spectator, and man, i'm glad i'm not an evolutionary psych follower ( Read more... )

this morning was gorgeous is a gothic/the cure sort of way. charcoal-gray skies on the brink of darkness and the normally green trees were a shade away from night tinged with a spattering of gray velvet. and the grass was in mourning, green cast with a sullen i-don't-care-anymore-oh-death-is-beatiful-let-me-sleep-in-black-velvet-sheets sort of haze ( Read more... )

so andrea and i figured out my type of guy: usually clean cut, a noxzema face cleanser posterboy who also does gap ads and jcrew catalogs for fun, smart but not in an obnoxious, intimidating way, and "experimental" in a non-addictive legal sense. maybe i don't make sense. oh well. anyway, there's this boy in the october teen vogue (gasp! guffaw!

i made a purple margarita mistake ( Read more... )

ahhh! damned pagan poetry video won't open! and i've got a hankering for something to eat, but i don't know what. i've eaten crackers, string cheese, an orange, toast, mangoes, whatever else is in the fridge......ahhhh!

ok, so i didn't update last night. sorry. had to watch CSI. a plain baked potato and wendy's chili are really good together. and icy watered-down cranberry juice goes with anything. well, i had the worst academic week. totally slacked on studying for three tests due to aclfest. and the four page paper i wrote was so sucky, it was embarrassing. but ( Read more... )
