ABSTRACT

Writing is daunting, since I've done so much lately. Allow me to tell you all about how dorky I am with my papers. I mean, deeply, seriously dorky. Also, Look! Car Porn! drool Thank you all for your responses to my last post, all of which I sincerely appreciate. Curling happened, and it was good. I met this guy and we totally made out and

That didnt feel like three weeks worth. im marginally disappointed.

That second car is somewhat phallic. no wonder you think it's porn.

Woohoo, on the guy, boohoo on the paper.

bridesmaids have to throw at least the bachelorette party. If no one is throwing a bridal shower, you can do that in addition.

[datlowen]

It really wasn't, ordinarily, but so much of the last three weeks has been me hunkering down to try to survive the semester. Which I didn't really do. Oh, well. It kind of makes the decision for me, I think. I wonder to what extent this was self-sabotage, really.

That's the 1936 Auto Union Type C Mountainclimber edition. I love it.

Yay! Boo!

Hmm. I wonder how one throws a bachelorette party.

[road_to_hell]

Just weigh the pros and cons of both, and you probably should consdier what you want to do with the rest of your life, and go from there.

Depends on the bachelorette. (Same rules apply for bachelor party). Some people are wild and crazy and want a stripper (or more). You can do that in a home or go to a strip club.

Some people are more subdued. For the Bachelor party i planned it was an Orioles Game, dinner at the Malibu Gtill and then to the bar Coyote Ugly (There was a no stripper rule, but the bartenders there are hot girls who will pour shots in your mouth and they get pretty rowdy. Oddly there were more bachelorette parties there than bachelor parties)

For a girl who doesnt want the stripper style party you can do lost of things. Maybe a dayspa. Or just a bar without strippers. I dont know, ive not thrown a bachelorette party yet.

I don't think there's anything to weigh. I'm about 95% certain that my funding won't be renewed this fall. I'm also 95% certain that if it is, I'll refuse it. There are people more deserving of it, quite frankly.

My sister is pretty laid back. There will probably be drinking involved in the evening, but no strippers. My sister isn't very girly and she hates sports, so I don't know. Maybe we'll go, like, pet dolphins or something.

i giggle at your car-porn, but i do agree that it's totally adorable that you had a date with a boy who did not giggle but in fact shared your car kink. ;)

Anyway its chemical symbol was CrO2. CROATIA TWO: THE REVENGE!!! You are so welcome.

ow, ow, and ow. thank you!

[datlowen]

It isn't a kink! It's...okay, it's a kink. Shut up.

Hee. My pleasure!

[cmshaw]

of course it's your pleasure -- that's what a kink is!

*totally ignores any other way of threading this conversation*

:)

Har. This is why I like you, Caitlin. Well, one of many reasons.

Lucia: I don't know if you're thinking what I think you might be thinking, because I don't know how drunk you were when I told you the thing that might make you think the thing you may be thinking, but I haven't forgotten, and he's brought it up since, and it's all good for now; we'll see

1. VERY GOOD YAY.

2. Can I tell you how on earth pleased with myself I am that I REMEMBERED the thing? I was mad drunk that night but I AM ON TOP OF THINGS.

3. *preens*

[datlowen]

1. Yes, definitely Yay.

2. Ha! You're not as far off your drinking game as you thought!

[jgesteve]

Sorry the paper didn't do well... perhaps he went to that garish website that you noted and was put off by it :-(

I'm glad you seem to be pretty much at peace with the whole funding thing...

I'm intrigued by the thing that you and Lucia are referencing, but then that's just me...

I get the ISYN but not the YLF?

I'm bored at work, and your post didn't take me nearly long enough to read... write more!!

[datlowen]

>perhaps he went to that garish website that you noted and was put off by it

Ha! No, it just sucked.

>I'm glad you seem to be pretty much at peace with the whole funding thing...

Eh. Seriously, that's all I can feel about it right now. Mom will be disappointed, but, well, eh.

>I get the ISYN but not the YLF?

You Little Freaks. It's a Pancakeism.

>I'm bored at work, and your post didn't take me nearly long enough to read... write more!!

If I did, it would only be whining about the paper grade and how much is sucked. Wah wah wah. Completely uninteresting reading, I promise you.

[jgesteve]

It's a Pancakeism.

I figured something along those lines...

Mom will be disappointed, but, well, eh

Yeah, well at least she has your sister's wedding to look forward to... but yeah it doesn't seem to be a good time for the young Datlowe men.

So if this is the case, are you going to bother doing the other paper for Agnew? Or just going to forget about it?

whining about the paper grade

Well, you can't really whine about the grade can you? I mean you admit it sucked... although you could have your Mom complain to Parent Services and see what that does ;-)

[datlowen]

>Yeah, well at least she has your sister's wedding to look forward to...

TRUE.

>but yeah it doesn't seem to be a good time for the young Datlowe men.

Yeah, no kidding. Boo, fate.

>So if this is the case, are you going to bother doing the other paper for Agnew? Or just going to forget about it?

I feel like I should, even though I am way short of caring about it at this point. I'm certainly not going to work on it on the 20th, though, I tell you what.

>Well, you can't really whine about the grade can you? I mean you admit it sucked...

No, it's true. I mean whining about the more general circumstances about how I hate everything and resent that people expect me to work and live up to expectations and shit.

>although you could have your Mom complain to Parent Services and see what that does

HA!

Dude, I miss the days when I could write 52 pages in three weeks. Glad you're feeling better, though. Also, you forgot to mention Antarctica as another example of a white all-encompassing blank space.

[datlowen]

Three weeks, nothing--ten days. Note, though, that at least half of those were utter excrement.

I DID FORGET ANTARCTICA!!!
