Two fantasies realized within 24 hours....if I believed in heaven, I'd think I was there.

Last night a bunch of us went dancing.  It was 80s night, and every song was fantastic as we danced under Klaus Nomi videos and scenes from Pretty in Pink.  At about 1AM, it happened.  You see, I have had this fantasy since watching the shitty 80s movie Back ( Read more... )

I first laid eyes on it in middle school.  I was at a paltry street fair in the podunk town of Walkertown, the town that I was forced to go to middle school in (supposedly because AG classes were there, but the place was an IQ sinkhole).  Beavis and Butthead merchandise was all the rage, but somehow it wasn't....metal enough for me.  Or for who I ( Read more... )

And oh yeah.  Please watch this- Brokeback to the Future.  The BEST Brokeback parody I've ever seen.

I can't quit you, Marty McFly

I don't know why this series of emails cracked me up so much (probably because I'm not there) but this is one of the most perfect examples of the weird passive aggression between my mom and sister  I've ever seen.  Names have been taken out to protect the guilty, and I am ecstatic that I live 14 hours away from this, thank god.  I give you- THE ( Read more... )

I went to a party with some friends last night, and for the first time in a while, I did not want to interact with a single person there.  Being a new Chicagoan, I've gotten used to the whole walking up to strangers and starting a conversation thing out of necessity.  I just usually look for the most interesting person in the room and say something ( Read more... )

Greetings and salutations!  Yeah, I know, it's been a while.  I've been out living in the real world for a while, and enjoying it.  Chicago is good, karate is good, and lava_grrl visiting me in a few weeks is definitely good.  Having to buy effing two cent stamps is bad.

Hey galataya, I'm supposed to be going to see 24 Hours on Craigslist next weekend with a few ( Read more... )

I had my first seido karate class yesterday.  The staff was wonderfully helpful and kind, and by the end of the hour I was screaming like a banshee as I brought my hammerfist down on the pad my partner was holding.  They paired me with a 16 year old BROWN belt, which meant that when it was my turn to hold the pad and she hammerfisted me, the pad ( Read more... )
