Today I pulled up behind someone in a tricked out Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR Edition. The license plate read "SLAVE 7". Now, first of all, someone's been a very good slave. Second of all, 7 slaves? That seems like more work than it's worth, kind of like polygamy.

I have to get off LJ now. And yes, I could have posted about Howl's Moving Castle ( Read more... )

It's official, pistachios are responsible for those unpleasant little episodes of angioedema, dypsnea*, and urticaria I've had. Urticaria sounds like a constellation, doesn't it? Me, if I were a teenage boy trying to get in my girlfriend's pants: "Look Michelle, urticaria major! You just find the north star and follow it 32 degrees south of east." ( Read more... )

I started the first of my two summer physics classes yesterday. I had been a little worried about it since it's been 10 years since I last took physics, and while doing the calculus review I discovered that I have completely forgotten calc.

I like to know exactly how far I've run, and exactly how fast. I like to keep track of my heart rate. Sometimes I count my footfalls per minute, etc. And that's just running.

Then the school has security escort her ( Read more... )

Thank you Captain Obvious: Health Study Shows Males and Females are Different!

It's a damp, grey, shitty day here in Boston, a description which pretty much sums up my internal state as well. Our team came in dead last at trivia. There should be a prize for that. Wait, there is - it's a round of shots. Yay. I swear, we couldn't have found a clue during clue mating season in a field full of horny clues even if we smeared our ( Read more... )
