Yo, Cold
*as in the physical condition, not the temperature*
You lodged in my throat and I took a shot of vinegar to burn you out. I paid my dues for that too, but it sent you running and that's what matters.
Now stop coating my stomach with mucous, or I will chase you with a masochistic dosage of wasabi, nevermind how every orifice on my face may stream.

SO slooooow today.
But that actually suits me fine, because it's also appallingly cold--not so bad as yesterday, or the day before, but still--I'd rather not wash cars, if cars don't want to be washed. So I'm dickin around on this thing instead.
Yesterday my father went to my sister's school to do taxes on her computer. I went up to get mine started too, and we went ( Read more... ) -
I've been sleeping a lot of late.
Actually, I’ve been sleeping too much of late Was drifting in and out yesterday evening, and missed a friend’s studybreak call to drink-but that might be okay, since it seems she did get what needed done, done; so a drink tonight in celebration instead.
I don’t know why so much sleep, though. I haven’t been ill or done anything too strenuous. I ( Read more... ) -
On the "tortured" artist.
I'm reading an interview between Neko Case and Sherman Alexie, and just came up on this splendid portion I wanna share, for whoever's interested:
NC: [...] artists have to be completely tortured to do anything good. I hate that stereotype, too. It's destrructive.
SA: It's partially torture. [Laughs]
NC: Yeah.
SA: But people encourage their own ( Read more... ) -
My first booklist!
I’ve always enjoyed looking at other people’s booklists, and have actually kept my own for about a year and a half now, but only within the past couple of months have I jotted down, in addition to the book’s title, author, and number of pages, my thoughts on it. Anyway, I thought since the first month of the new year’s been concluded, I may as ( Read more... ) -
I came up with a new word.
Or term. Whatever:
DIBS'D-UPON (which by the way, is the official, canonical spelling, so says me, because I'm the one that made it): when it's like, Dude, I don't know if I wanna date or anything just yet, but I like you man, so don't fuck no one til I get back!; also, referring to an individual who has been dibs'd-upon. Used in a sentence: "Hey, ( Read more... ) -
Uh... Kaiser Wilhelm WTF??
This instance reminds me of some of those scenes from Family Guy spoofing George W. Bush. Unfortunately the following is painfully factual, and dare I say?, effin' historical:
" In an effort to distract him, the kaiser's entourage decided to put on an entertainment, the kind that amused him: a ballet spectacular performed by the middle-aged ( Read more... ) -
Time is cyclical; or, the Cold War of the 1890s.
So I'm coinciding the Hetalia investigation with reading this book I've wanted to for a while, after reading Embracing Defeat (about Japan following the defeat of WWII and the American Occupation) and somehow in conjunction with that realizing I know nearly jackshit about WWI--George, Nicholas and Wilhelm: Three Royal Cousins and the Road to World ( Read more... ) -
Today I was not a bastard.
Not full-on legit, anyway, and not today as in today. Hopefully my parents have some semblance of celebration for their 23rd wedding anniversary. (My 23rd birthday comes up at the end of June--you see the connection ja?! ^^) Or at the very least, hopefully my sisters cleaned the house or something like that.
Hm. I might call 'em later. -
Well the year got off to a nerdy start...
Yesterday I worked about ten and a half hours and made near fifty bucks in tips, which was nice, because during my trip home last week I was ambushed by a loan bill last minute; and naturally given the situation I had left my checks in KC, so I used my parents' routing number to pay said bill, and in turn gave them almost all the cash I had; so ( Read more... )
