Well, I just got done with a perfectly good dinner with my Thai family, and then I called my friend to wish her a happy b-day. So far, so good ( Read more... )

I woke up in good humor again today. Last night, I forced myself to finish reading some books I wasn't enjoying, just to get them over with. I actually skipped a few stories and poems that looked uninteresting (a novel approach for me). In addition, I did some small amount of cleaning in my room and threw away some things that my lesser packrat ( Read more... )

So, today, I woke up in a pretty good humor. I have absolutely no reason why that is, other than I spent last night in some kind of nightmarish hellhole of what can only be described as a cocktail of boredom, lust, and hurt. Now, that sounds pretty creepy, but I'm not talking about what you might think of when I say 'lust.' Rather do I mean a ( Read more... )

Apparently, the following was hidden away as a "draft" of some kind in my journal, and when I went to write a new entry, this popped up:

I have seen so many miscommunications blamed on how "sarcasm doesn't translate well over the internet," which actually occured simply due to a lack of effort on the part of the interlocutors. I actually thoroughly enjoy talking over the internet (2nd only to talking in person) because of how it allows me to think of what I am saying before I type ( Read more... )

Now, far be it for me to judge others, but I am about to. If there is one solid thing on which I am an admitted snob, it is humor (people could catch me on music too if they wanted, but humor is the kicker). And, when I say I am a humor snob, I don't mean that I prefer "high" humor to "low" humor or wit to slapstick or anything of the sort. I ( Read more... )

"...The frog-prince said to the princess, 'I am sorry my dear, but I cannot let you kiss me. Not until I have proven I can make it on my own.' And though the princess would have waited were he trying, the frog-prince could never bring himself to eat a fly. And the princess married a real prince. And the frog died of starvation ( Read more... )
