So... the last two nights in a row I've had dreams about terrorists. The first night, I was devasted because my extended family couldn't make it in time to the safety compound we had created in the wake of massive bombings. The second night, a woman in my dream told me that the terrorists (whoever they may be) had figured out a subliminal way to ( Read more... )

Since my scammed wireless in my apartment is being lame, I'm sitting in the Dunn Bros on Lake and Bryant. Coming here was actually sort of an afterthought... I was Uptown to go to the wine store and it just so happened that my computer was in my bag. Turns out I didn't really have any exciting emails waiting for me, but damn if there aren't some ( Read more... )

This weekend I:-missed Halloween, Alaska because I was too busy being busy to get tickets. I hope you all enjoyed yourselves, truly. (And that's not meant to be sarcastic; I really hope it was great ( Read more... )

Before I get down to brass tacks here, let me just plug my friend Lee's blog. Go to http://dinosaurintrouble.blogspot.com sometime. (If I could remember how to make link-y things I would, but I don't so I won't. If you want to teach me, by all means...) Anyhow, Lee is rarely wrong ( Read more... )

I'm trying to make peanut butter cookies to relieve school/job/etc. stress, but apparently it's not meant to work. The recipe called for 1 1/2 cups of peanut butter and specifically stated NOT the "all-natural" kind but FUCK. I shop at a co-op. That's the only kind I have and I'm not about to run off and grab some fucking Skippy. Now, after twelve ( Read more... )

Oh, also, anyone remember when I used to hang out with Molly Penny? Her mother died yesterday. I have no way of getting in touch with Molly now; she moved back to Waseca when she got pregnant. I'd really like to see her and her baby, though. How weird would be if I showed up at the visitation thing? Like, totally, obnoxiously weird? Do reunions and ( Read more... )

I could not be bothered to go to class today because I got my new computer from the UPS man. And since it's so lovely and sunny outside, I decided to go for a walk. I am wirelessly computing from the Spyhouse right now! Finally, Elizabeth R. Lawrence has caught up technologically with the rest of the free world.

-I think I'm going to work a few hours a week at D'Amico again. It'll pay more than the silly pet store that wants to hire me, and I'll get delicious food and wine for cheap and I'll get to work with some old college pals ( Read more... )

I need to take a break from this super-intense paper I'm writing for class, and instead of walking to the drinking fountain, I'll update.

So last Friday I biked down to the CC Club to meet boilingbabies and we got to talking about different sorts of apartment pests and I was bragging that my apartment was totally bug-free and then, when I got home, I stepped ( Read more... )

I used to hate Sundays but I'm changing my mind ( Read more... )
