Considering I'm now essentially homeless, on pain of being perpetually grossed out by my housemates, I'm feeling surprisingly chipper. Perhaps it's the fact that I just spent 12 hours on the internet, after a period of long withdrawal ( Read more... )

My former landlord is apparently a prophet. Observing the inhabitants of the local flophouse, (who sit on ragged, moldy chairs, drink cheap beer and screech all day) inch greedily closer to our door every time they sat down outside, she pointed out to me that it was only a matter of time before they would begin congregating in our front hall every ( Read more... )

While acting as a sort of designated walker for Colin through rattray marsh, I encountered a bizarre and initially frightening sight. Two middle aged businessmen, playing at being bohemian saints, clearly blissed out on something more than alcohol, swaggering about shirtless in the gloom, profounding each other's socks off. "All the women I've had ( Read more... )

Made a few batches of holy soda today. It's actually pretty good. I doubt it's all that holy now, as I gave it the only blessing I felt proper:

Waiting in line for Souvlaki today, the man in front of me, who was holding a young boy, spun around and began making an educational tool of me.
"So, son, is this a boy, or a ManBoy eyes me suspiciously. Man expounds on my paradoxical nature. I grin awkwardly ( Read more... )

Dude, Ghost World is not a good comic to be reading right when Everyone Else is going to University. You'd think somebody might have warned me.

Honestly, though, I'm in pretty good spirits. I used a huge chunk of my newly freed up time to play the most terrible RPG on earth- Record of Lodoss War. I'm into reverse drugs, you see; spend the entire ( Read more... )

I managed to spend almost the entire day out in realspace today, only checking fark and Penny Arcade a couple times in the morning for strength. Grabbed Neitzsche's BG&E, from my hall on the way out (I've run out of room for books, so I'm starting to pile some outside) and was off to consume some sunlight. I lay naked for a couple hours in a ( Read more... )
