How to lose your mind in 30 days or less. National Novel Writing Month is November. Once again, I'm crazy enough to be attempting it. Anyone interested in periodic updates about my progress/lack thereof should keep their eye on nanowrimolissa, as it could get quite ugly and I also don't just want bits of my story floating around in my regular journal ( Read more... )

I think I'm actually starting to miss Cincinnati. Maybe in reality I just miss my life. I've conversed face to face with one person in my own age group since coming up home. I have survived numerous trips to the grocery store without encountering anyone I know from school, which means surely the Horsemen are on their way. (On motorcycles, perhaps ( Read more... )

It seems every year I'm surprised all over by how suddenly fall appears. At the beginning of the week it was sunny and almost hot. Today I woke up chilled by the cross breeze through my windows and got to enjoy the feeling of snuggling under the covers for the first time this year. One of the trees outside my window is already starting to turn ( Read more... )

Hey, it's banned books week! I read banned books -JK Rowling and Stephen King are number 4 and 7 respectively on the list of 10 most challenged authors 1990-2004, and the HP series is the number 7 most challenged book of the 90's - and I stand against censorship in all its wiley forms, so I thought I'd commemorate the week. Feel free to pass around ( Read more... )

So despite having graduated in June, I never recieved my diploma. Eventually I realized that I was still showing a block on my account for some reason. SO I called OneStop today and they said I was still showing a balance with Health Services, which I thought was possible as I *may* still have owed a co-pay somewhere. So I called over to HS and ( Read more... )
