I'm feeling really calm and relaxed right now, which is a relief. I'm doing something unusual- volunteering at Spartacus during an event this evening, just to be out of the house, but also by myself. The event is all at the other end of the store and I'm just really glad for everything to be quiet and good. I'm planning on writing in here, reading ( Read more... )

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your music library
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you are cool.

Well, the theme for the holiday this year was parties and video games.
I finally got to have some rampaging head-to-head battles with Guitar Hero Two yesterday, which was awesome. I highly encourage anyone who is interested to come over and got to "battle of the bands" with me ( Read more... )

Read the subject. yup.

I got tempted at the 22nd ave. hombrew tasting party. But I mean, come on espresso chocolate beer? How can you not "bend the edge" a little? Other favourites included sage-licorice beer. Really I'm not as drunk as i was when before biking hone, but I'm still pretty drunk.

Yesterday I got my learner's permits for both a passenger vehicle and a motorcycle! If you get them at the same time they don't even charge extra. The guy there even managed to convince me to try with my glasses off, and though strictly I probably shouldn't have passed the vision test, I got it anyways ( Read more... )
