There's a rat living under my front doorstep! The first time I saw him bounding across the yard, I thought he was a squirrel... until I saw his big fat rat tail. He ran under the step and I wanted him to come out so Mom could see him, so I put some apple beside his burrow entrance. We waited for fifteen minutes and he didn't come out, so we left to ( Read more... )

I haven't been updating because none of these stories seemed substantial enough for a whole entry... but then I thought, "hey, why not just throw a whole bunch of short random stories together and call it an entry, so then at least people won't think you're dead?" So I did.

..Okay, I tried, people. I wanted to like the finale, really I did. But I'm afraid I'll always be a hater.

My friend Kim (marleymulti) and I have been watching Veronica Mars together all season, and we have come to the conclusion that Gia blew up the bus (we haven't read any other speculation, so possibly this is the most common theory or the one that's thought most ridiculous, but we don't care). Anyway, here's why:

Today my family went to the zoo! Most of you probably know by now that when my family goes to the zoo, we don't just walk around and gaze at the animals from a safe distance like normal people.

People, chill. The only movie that was "robbed" of a best picture Oscar was Walk the Line.

How in the hell could anyone think this was a good idea for a LJ feature? Did you know it sends a little form letter that says "be a friend and go post"!? If anyone ever "nudges" me to tell me to post in my own journal... well, just don't do it. I won't be using this stupid-ass feature to harass any of you, either ( Read more... )

Happy holidays, everyone, and thanks to those of you who sent me cards! I'd send you something back, but I can't because I am... well, lazy, but also unemployed and flat broke. Yes, I quit my convenience store job. To make a long story short (and I do mean a long story -- I wrote it up a while ago and decided it was too boring and involved to post ( Read more... )
