Semicolons are transvestite hermaphrodites representing absolutely nothing.
"I want to stay as close on the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center... Big, undreamed-of things -- the people on the edge see them first.''
Author Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. (November 11, 1922 - April 11, 2007)

Strangeness in the form of Strangers
Today I welcomed two complete strangers into my home, and offered them perfectly good food that I could have eaten, and more of the same for the next two weeks.

Have I finally gone over the edge?

A Bloody Random Post
This post is more just to organise my thoughts lately, and for future reference. Things I don't want to forget.

And lately, these songs just seem to apply more than ever ( Read more... ) -

skipping lines became easier then punctuation.
Result: a lot of little observations on life phrased like meaningful, deep-reaching, soul-searching poetry.
And then some actual poetry. Based on my life but dramatized, but still enough of me that ( Read more... ) -

Assignment: Find something you like, and do a project about it.
The Sandman, v. 1
In research, I found out where I got an expression of. I have been known to say "Damn you to the ninth circle of Hell!" or something along those lines.

Sickness and Books
Rather sick today.
Probably brought on by band camp and staying up till 2am three nights in a row to read.
Have been since band camp, but I didn't have to stay home until now.
And now I'm screwed because there's a very big Biology lab due tomorrow.
Just thought I'd tell the world about that.
And that Ukrainian rock is awesome.
