A team is only as strong as it's least strong member. And when you are teamed up with a total idiot there is only so much one can do to rise above and carry the show. When that idiot is the team leader...well...everyone comes off as being as ignorant and immature and deluded as him. (Or her ( Read more... )

Would it be weird to friend my Social Psychology professor on Facebook? I'm sort of completely in love with him. In a totally plutonic way of course. I mean, he knows who I am and all, so it wouldn't be a "who the hell is this person...wait, I think she sits in the second row of my 10 AM Tuesday-Thursday class...weird" kind of thing. I took his ( Read more... )

I've grown tired of caring too much about what others think, and of silencing my own honest two cents in fear of putting people off. Though I know I overstep my bounds every so often just like any human being, that doesn’t seem reason enough to keep every potentially critical opinion to myself-especially to anyone who is willingly candid with ( Read more... )

It's been a while and I've been sitting on my ass for about a month, so I figure I might as well update this thing. It's summer, I'm bored out of my mind, and it's wonderful. I eagerly anticipated this lazy boredom for most of the school year and frankly, I think I deserve it. However, without any money and with the pending school year looming ( Read more... )

So now my biodad is talking to me again. It's via facebook and that's sort of weird, but okay. And two days after offering me an "olive branch," he suggested that I come to Thailand this summer. To go backpacking. For three weeks. He's paying. Tempting...just in time to satisfy my "I need to spice up my cultural palette and experience the ( Read more... )

Very rarely do I cry in movies, let alone commercials. I didn't even cry when E.T. got sick and apparently that's the big tear-jerker. The number of movies that caused me to tear up I could probably count on my fingers and still have a few fingers leftover to pick my nose or squeegy (sp?) out earwax ( Read more... )

Wtf is up with these pregnancy dreams? I've had, like, one a month for the last 3 months. Except this last one was post-preggers and I was joking about it in my dream as though it was no big deal. Like, "Hah...remember that time when I wasn't pregnant? Yeah...that was funny." But each time it's always a surprise to me. Even if logically I'd ( Read more... )

I've just figured out what I want in life. This dry spell of motivation to follow through with my chosen Grand Plan has finally opened my eyes. I want a laid-back career with a modest-but-respectable and oh-so-tasteful urban apartment that I own, lots of free time to keep my hobbies alive (but not so much that I get bored.) A satisfying social ( Read more... )

So here are a couple out-of-the-ordinary events that happened recently: First, early early Friday morning (between 3:30 am and 10 am...probably not after 5 though because these sorts of things don't usually happen in broad-ass daylight,) Danny's car was stolen right in front of our house not 100 feet from where we were sleeping. Reports were ( Read more... )

Wowwwww I just dreamed that I was preggers and going into labor 10 weeks early. I even remember the trip to the hospital from my house...at least almost to the Hess station on Silas. NOT COOL. And I felt bad because I forgot that you couldn't smoke or drink. Both of which I had been doing. A lot. So I was afraid I was going to have a retarded ( Read more... )
