I consider myself a pretty tolerant person. Aside from letting people believe what they want without telling them they're wrong if I think so, I just don't think so very often. And on top of that, I can't really think of many people that I know at all that even annoy me. I just don't really care that much. So of course, the opinions of others ( Read more... )

I'm sure you've all heard about the train bombing in Madrid last week.

I should be asleep. instead, I'm screwing with my camera and my yahoo briefcase trying to figure out how to directly link to files there. This will have practical use later when I want to show people pictures of n33t things in Japan, but for now it's just keeping me up too late. here's ME!
