Things between ___ and I never really got sorted out... I went to Colorado, then she went home, then I came back. So I don't know, really, where we stand. My general assumption is that, when it gets down to it, there's nothing going on right now, but upon my return we are both interested in at least considering things ( Read more... )

Last night, I dreamt I had been suddenly chosen to play Catsby (Gatsby? The character was more like the Penny Arcade character). When I say suddenly, I mean like "Okay, we need you tonight ( Read more... )

I'm reading through people's applications for SSP, so tomorrow I can help organize them into sensible groups, and these people have all A's down their report cards. And I hate it, because it's so uniform-I can't even really see that they are better at science than anything else (not that that needs to be a prerequisite ( Read more... )

The parallels are striking. At least, the ones I like to see are there*... upon further inspection, it's not that close. Whatever. So yeah, it probably isn't going to go anywhere. And if it does last past the summer, then I have not learned my lesson--long distance sucks. Hell, arguably I've already made it clear I haven't learned my lesson ( Read more... )

My goal for this summer-or one of them, at least-is to read, on my own, the reading list of ENG 133: Princeton University Reads.

Well, that was surprisingly simple... I'd be a liar if I said I was pleased by it, but it clears things up. "No." It's hard to believe the thought hadn't been considered. Fallout over the next couple days, I'm sure, but it's done. And I'm free. Good, I guess ( Read more... )

Princeton really is pretty ridiculous, and reunions all the more so.

I need some kind of deadline, something to force me not to back down. I don't know what I'm afraid of... except changing the status quo. Different is scary, even if it could be better. Will it be better? I dunno ( Read more... )

I thought it was a clever idea... I seem to recall having seen something like it way back in the day, but I'll be damned if I remember where.
