The summer is ending, and I've had a great time overall. Exciting things happening lately ( Read more... )

My Extreme Thunderbolt gumball was decidedly un-extreme.

Today I had one of the most disgusting bathroom incidents of my life - I don't mean that it was dirty or gross or anything like that. I mean I was disgusted. I went to wash my hands ( Read more... )

So I had two dreams last night.

I was on a trip in Europe with my old band director (Yay for Europe, not for the band director). We'll call him Bob. There were many other students along for this ride, a few from AU and some from home among the faceless others. The problem was this: Every time we were getting ready to leave wherever we were, I ( Read more... )

So I spent four days in our capital with my older sister and here are the very succint highlights (I'm trying to not be one of those boorish people who shove their bland vacation stuff on people who don't care.  I have two advantages: theoretically you care at least a little and I never have bland vacations):

I woke up this morning thinking sleepily, "Wow, sleeping feels really good.  I can't wait to get back to sleep." 
"But it feels like I should be getting up soon," protested another part of my mind.

A new resident has moved into the room next to Julie's, and her living area is on the other side of the wall from my room. The walls are thin. Her TV has not been turned off since 5:00 yesterday afternoon (I first heard it when I got home from work). I kept waking up to old Will and Grace episodes and some sitcom I've never seen in which a female ( Read more... )

This white-out will not come off of my hand ( Read more... )

I know that just a few entries ago I was talking about some of the great guys that I know. This is still true. I know lots of great guys. But having been ogled more than my fair share today, I'm annoyed at men who ogle. The first one is a guy that works on campus. He's about my dad's age, so it's creepy. He gave me a very slow once-over and ( Read more... )
