We (some housemates and I) went non-perishables food shopping this morning. It was a truly bonding experience. Roaming the darkened aisles of kroeger, shopping for spaghettios and granola. Batteries had disappeared. All the water had gone except for SMART water! Woot woot! I bought a liter at the co-op for $1 and brought it to ultimate and ever ( Read more... )

I love how the chemistry building has it's own generator such that it provides me with the ability to update my livejournal whilst the rest of the more unlucky folks of the northeast are sitting without power for the next two or three days. Although, I do wish I had something to eat. Something feels warm and fuzzy about walking down State to my ( Read more... )

jets_to_japan left today for Tokyo. It was rough. Technically, she's away for a year (a year!!! - 365 days and counting!!! - in Japan!?!?!) but I know I'll be seeing her before then. Nevertheless, it's been amazing how everywhere I go, everything seems so quiet. And I don't mean that entirely humorously. She really had a way of keeping people chatty and ( Read more... )

I'm sitting in the sweltering heat in the quaint new jersey town known as Bloomfield. High's are in the mid 90's, the humidity is leavig me in a puddle of my own salty sweat - the Philippines has got nothing on this heat wave we call summer ( Read more... )

I like to hope that even with all of life's trials and tribulations, overall, neutral complacency always perseveres. To put it in dorktalk, if you integrate all positive and negative events over an entire lifespan, everything sums up to zer0. Zer0 isn't bad. It's not good either. It's zer0. But this isn't what's bothering me. The irk is that the ( Read more... )

I only have two friends here, but I'm bored and I want to see if the bar graphies work in this . . .

I really like the "refried paper" layout but the color scheme just wasn't doing it for me. Too much olive. So I started putzing around with global heading overrides and it's just not coming out as cool as I'd hoped. Damn them!!! Damn them all to hell - those impeccable aesthetes. I decided Semagic is okay, although I'd prefer the xhtml ( Read more... )
