bad frozen food

Ugggh... I didn't want to cook tonight because I've had a headache and fatigue all day, so I went to Safeway and picked up some of these "Tai Pei" frozen Asian meals that I hadn't tried before. I'm eating the General Tso's Chicken and it tastes like my worst ever attempt at stir fry, watery and too sweet with limp vegetables. I just looked on the ( Read more... )

Fall

The weather today was awesome. Very fall-like relative to the summer, breezy and not hot. Cool enough to wear L.L. Bean, even if it was just my "fitness fleece" hoodie. The sound of the wind makes me feel like I should be kick stepping down the street with my trombone. Not gonna happen this year though ( Read more... )

9

So Stella and I saw 9 while we were in Eureka on Tuesday night. It was pretty bad. I guess you'd expect the eyecandy to be really good, and it was filled with lots of creepy creatures like one would expect from Tim Burton (my favorite was the cocoon-snake monster with the obligatory one-eyed baby doll head).

I think McDonald's might make their new mochas by taking espresso and mixing in their hot fudge sundae sauce with it. Not complaining, just observing. All I needed was the caffeine. The syrup on top of the whipped cream gave me McDonald's sundae flashbacks. The woman who served me also had incisors like Buffy/Angel vampires ( Read more... )

I opened up my childhood diary because I wanted to see if I had drawn a picture of the monster in the dog house. It was so amusing that I thought I would type it up so I could have a pretend-permanent digital copy. Will I ever do this with my high school and college diaries? Now THAT will be a friends-only entry.

feminism/misogyny in academia

dragonzuela Aug 20, 2009 21:28

I recently read a feminist article that powerleca and arxev linked on Facebook, and so naturally today when I was given a 1980's/90's guide for female professors my response was to think about it critically. (The person who gave it to me said it was 20 years old (did housekeeping cost $10-$15/hour in 1989?) and said it was good for a laugh as well as providing ( Read more... )

If I want simple satisfaction that will trick my brain into thinking I've accomplished something, is it worth it to buy a used copy of Spore, or am I better off installing Diablo II and/or Dungeon Master on my laptop next time I'm at my parents' house ( Read more... )
