Let's start this over.
If anyone gave a horse’s shit about Justice, things like Darfur and that supermodel without fingers and teeth wouldn’t happen. The problem isn’t that people are immune to the Truth, but that they’re completely indifferent to any sense of Justice, any idea of Fairness. Moved into my new house today. It doesn’t lock from the inside. My ( Read more... ) -
Mystery Books.
Picked up a book at B&N called A Beautiful Blue Death by Charles Finch. So far reading, and it's like an Agatha Christie novel (and I don't mean that insulting at all, I love Agatha Christie). I'd forgotten how much I love mysteries.
Does anyone have any other mystery books to recommend?

Got back from Egypt a couple of days ago. It was certainly an experience, overall a wonderful one--even though it took some thought to decide that. I also feel like my Arabic has improved considerably. :)
A bit tired, and residually sick. Been catching up on that Torchwood miniseries, Children of the Earth. I don't know if anyone reading this hasn' ( Read more... ) -

So, I've been following the news about Iran pretty consistently, and even did the whole Twitter thing. Now, I understand if you don't want to engage it, I have plenty of friends who said, "Kay, thanks Nita, but I'd rather not," fairly respectfully and I can honestly say that I didn't nag anyone into doing anything and only talked to people who were ( Read more... ) -

They cancelled the Egypt trip due to swine flu. I cannot tell you how upset this has made me, not to mention, it fucks over my schedule for next semester because I had signed up for the next class as this would have taken care of Advanced I & II.
Fucking swine flu.
Now I need a job. Maybe I'll move up to Binghamton early and get one. -
Short Update.
I totally need to get back into the habit of updating this journal. I've been playing a bit on Blogspot lately, though. Also, checking out forums--though I'm a bit ambigious on what forums I want to join up with. Any suggestions ( Read more... ) -
The Tudors/Gundam Wing/Les Miserables.
Okay. SERIOUS fandom collision. Colm Wilkinson is in The Tudors.
And so is the guy who voiced Heero Yuy in Gundam Wing.
No joke. -
Soccer/Futbol.
FC Barca's playing Man U. And winning.
You have no idea how happy I am because of this. -

Sometimes I'm sure that demons live within the walls of my house, reverberating with every step I take. As if within the weak plaster that has leaked so much throughout the years will leak out all my secrets. Our secrets of things done, said, and thought. We're an ordinary and uninteresting group of people, a marriage of convenience and its ( Read more... ) -

I am in sore need of a hobby. At least momentarily. I really think I might sign up for those jewelry classes at BeadWorks. I mean, why not, right?
Also, I bought a book by Neil Strauss called Emergency: This Book Will Save Your Life. It's hysterical, I'm loving it. Totally geared to the paranoid population (ie. me.) I've decided that I must spend ( Read more... )
