I thought I would be a lot more bothered by the fact that my sister is moving in. And not just moving back in: moving into MY room, taking the bottom bunk where before my beloved books lay. She's home all the time and her dog barks early in the morning to be let out ( Read more... )

Gosh, I've been awful about posting. I guess when you spend most of your throw-away time playing COD: Black Ops, there's really not much to report ( Read more... )

I had a dream that I was hanging out with my coworkers Rameses, Leo, and Blakely.
