GAH!
With four seconds left in regulation, the Giants were preparing to kick a thirty-six yard field goal. Thirty-six measly yards. As soon as Lawrence Tynes made the kick, the Giants would be headed to the Super Bowl and the Packers would be humiliated in glorious defeat on their home field. And I would be happy ( Read more... ) -
One joyless week down, so many more to go
I'm not sure who I dislike more at the moment: my American Lit professor for assigning "Benito Cereno", or Herman Melville for writing it. I confess that I've never read anything of Melville's before, even though he's a classic author. After only ten pages of "Benito Cereno," though, I can see why I've never had a desire to read his work. It's ( Read more... ) -
The downhill spiral of playoffs
I'm convinced that there is a conspiracy against me. Why have all the football teams I'm supporting lost recently? I was convinced that my history of having the playoffs end horribly was finally over with the Colts winning last year's Super Bowl. But with the Vikings missing the playoffs, the Packers and Patriots winning, and the Colts losing, I ( Read more... ) -
Divisional weekend
Emily gave me the new version of Life for Christmas, and we've been obsessively playing it ever since. It's like sweet crack. The best part is that the device that calculates your money and life points is called the Lifepod. It makes me think of Invasion of the Body Snatchers and aliens forming in their pods. And that sends me on a sci fic ( Read more... ) -
PLAYOFFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Another year, another NFL postseason without the Vikings. Big surprise. For the love of Christ, all they had to do was beat Washington. One. Freaking. Game. Argh!All I hope for this year is anything but a Packers/Patriots Super Bowl. I would rather commit seppuku than watch my two most loathed teams for three hours ( Read more... ) -

Plane go boom
Season's Greetings! ^_____^
I'm spending the day in the car/airport/plane, as my brother and I are heading to Arizona to visit our mom's relatives. My parents have both been nagging me about packing since last week, and I'm this close to braining one of them with my suitcase. Even if murder would ruin Christmas forever ( Read more... ) -
Of brain breakage and flailing
The only reason I even came home this week was to fill in at Bank Midwest. Out of the four days I was supposed to work, I only ended up working one. I wasn't needed on Tuesday; Thursday and Friday I was at home spreading disease throughout the house. Go me ( Read more... ) -
Spreading holiday cheer and weirdness (and disease)
I'm filling in at Bank Midwest as a helper monkey this week. While scanning checks all day and balancing deposits isn't my idea of fun, at least my mom will get off my ass about not working. (This is a temp job, so it's still not what she'd like me to have, but oh well. She'll live.)
I'm shamelessly stealing this idea from nosferatu_blue. What does everyone ( Read more... ) -
Isn't this alright since we're all women?
Best. Crack. Video. Ever. Ever.
I died laughing at Chopper of all people animals yelling at Tashigi. He's usually so sweet and friendly that to see him totally flip out made me lmao. "Shut up! Put some sweet jam on my ham! Make it sweet and delicious ( Read more... )
