Massive. Fucking. Migraine.

Neeeeeed prescription medicine, since these happen a little too often.

Also... cat peed in my room, we are no longer best buddies. That bitch.

So I don't have the plague. Oh no, it's much worse than the plague (which is what I call a strange mysterious illness that is usually just a bad cold ( Read more... )

I'm a fucking spinster.

All of my old friends (meaning friends from home/pre-Chicago) are attached. Either married, engaged, or basically married.

Sigh.

And then there's a hurricane about to pummel the crap out of them.

Double sigh.

I think I need a drink, now.

It is HOT as FUCK.  Like, I might not be able to sleep tonight hot as fuck.  We need to put some hammocks or some cots in the pirate shack ASAP because it is was cooler in there, temperature wise, than it is in my house ( Read more... )

 OMG They're filming this less than a block from where I work.  And they turned Lincoln all old-timey! The whole block! They made it look exactly like it did in the 20s when they shot John Dillinger in the alley behind the Biograph!!!

And uh, holy crap, it's Johnny Depp and Christian Bale.

 Tomorrow (Feb 12) is Darwin Day!  As a member of academia and life-long science fan, I think that's pretty damn rad.  Check out this website to learn more about Darwin Day.  Another pretty cool thing to check out is the website for the HMS Beagle Project.  They're going to attempt to sail around the world like Darwin did on the Beagle back when he ( Read more... )

I can't get drunk, no matter how much I drink. I had A BOTTLE AND A HALF of red wine, then 4 strong cocktails at the bar... and I got nothin.

Weird.  Also, the cold isn't that bad... even ( Read more... )

Leopard print is back.

(I'm totally not making it up, it was in the RedEye this morning.)

Leopard print AND chunky-heeled platforms.  Finally I am cool.

I wish it wasn't hot in my fucking house, for just one whole day.  And I wish I had the time and energy to have a productive day and get the whole house clean.  I wish I didn't have to work or go to school or do anything for one day.

I NEED A VACATION.

I'm going to New Orleans for Labor Day... which will be like a four day vacation.  Thank

OMFG Like 5 hours.  I finishd reading Half Blood Prince last night.  I was able to read it without crying for like the first time ever.  I also cleaned my house a little today.  I wish I had more energy to go out and do stuff, but I've been a lazy bum this week and haven't really left the house too often.   It was the perfect day today too.  ( Read more... )
