Last Monday CU had a talk with two Hiroshima survivors, who both talked about their experiences during and after the fall of the bomb. One was sixteen at the time, and one was five. They brought pictures and showed their scars and recounted the hellish nightmare of the aftermath. It was really hard not to get upset. I of course broke down. I ( Read more... )

Gah! Has it really been that long?Since last I posted I:

1) Had a month of illnesses

2) Turned 25

3)Went to Seattle

4)Discovered "Firefly"

Just to name a few.

I'm feeling better now, thank god. I learned, though, that it's unwise to watch House when you feel absolutely horrid and don't know why, because it will scare the hell out of you. Too many ( Read more... )

I had the migraine from hell on Monday. It was probably the first real one I've had in years, and it knocked me on my ass. I wasn't able to get some caffeine in me, so I essentially spent the day puking my guts out. Every time I puked, I felt like my head was trying to split open. I puked until I was dehydrated, which then caused me to puke * ( Read more... )

Today was honestly the worst day of work ever. I have the red, bleary eyes to prove it. Alas, I don't want to waste my time talking about it. I swore to myself I'd never get into details about work in a blog.

Like music? Check out Pandora.com. I'm listening for the first time now and it's pretty damned neat. I just said A Perfect Circle was my ( Read more... )

I can't even express how happy I am that it's the weekend. I even had a nightmare last night that the week wasn't over, and in it I was griping that I just couldn't handle another day of work. It was wonderful to wake up and realize it was just a dream ( Read more... )

I'm feeling snarky.

So the other day I installed Sims Seasons, and for whatever reason the damned game stopped cooperating. I spent several days cleaning up my computer and fiddling with my downloads and such before finally deciding to just uninstall everything and start over. This meant that I lost all my saves, my families, my houses and ( Read more... )

I played DDR for HOURS yesterday. It's kind of embarrassing, actually. My new roommate got a "new" mix and I just kind of started and didn't stop. It's still pretty hot in Boulder and I don't have air conditioning, so I just kind of kept shedding layers when I got too hot until I was down to shorts and a bikini top. I outlasted both of my roommates ( Read more... )

I've been working on some stories on and off over the past, oh. year, and it's been a strange experience. I have this tendency to get really excited about an idea and work on it in my head for a while while I'm, say, at work, but then to stumble over it when I commit it to paper. And then I grow tired of the idea altogether and move onto something ( Read more... )

Blargh. So much for updating my profile. And userpics. And everything ( Read more... )

Home sick from work today. I've had some sort of fever/headache/aching/nausea thing since Saturday night/Sunday morning. I suppose it's nice to be not working today, but still.

Dear god, Bai Ling is on Lost season 3. I had not idea she was really an actress. She's really hard to look at.

I'll be using my sick time today to go to the DMV and update ( Read more... )
