Right now I wish that instead of cramming in front of my computer, I were lying on the sofa with a friend. Very nearly any friend would work well. I wouldn't change the music though, because I am really enjoying the Iron and Wine. See, lying on my sofa would be perfect because the Halloween lights I bought actually cast a very pleasant light for ( Read more... )

I went over to Ljuba's tonight to watch a movie with some people. We decided to make some oatmeal cookies from a powder in Ljuba's kitchen, but we didn't have an egg. So I went with new John (not to be confused with old roommate Jon, Jon Sagastume, John Mosby, or any other Jo/hn/n in my life) to buy an egg at the Roxie Food Center on Haste and ( Read more... )

Shyness is attractive at first, but in the end I think I want someone who, at the very least, can get over it eventually. Bad as this sounds, I am coming to realize I would probably have an easier time with a popular person; someone who can be a foil to my occasional bouts of aloofness, and to whom I can later return the favor. I want someone who- ( Read more... )

ME: Yeah well my name means "Beauty"
ME: *slap!*
ZACH: and Aurora was 2nd prettiest AFTER Aphrodite
ZACH: THE GODDESS OF LOVE
ZACH: OWN IT
ZACH: and your name was Belle because Brutte was taken

ZACH: *rips flowy golden dress*
ME: *tears off wannabe prom crown*ZACH: *slams face into several books ( Read more... )

Uch, everything has been downhill since early evening. It's not even really that bad right now, but compared to the ways things have been recently I feel ready to go out of my skull. "People who need people are the luckiest people" really is a stupid phrase. Sure we are very happy and easy to please when there are people around, but other times we ( Read more... )

What a lazy and solidly Jewish celebration of Christmas today was. I woke up and we had brunch with my extended family on my father's side. Good ol' bagels, creamcheese, lox, eggs, and UpperCrust. Afterwards I dropped my grandmother off at her place and then delivered some stuff to the house of one of my parents' friends. Then I came home and took ( Read more... )

Oh man, I can't even begin to go into detail about everything that has happened in the past few weeks. This month has been one of the busiest and best times in my life. Brandy, John, and Philip (in alphbetical order) are all awesome and essential to my life. I went to two parties in one weekend, I saw Narnia with Jeremy, I went out or had people ( Read more... )

So I am something of a small-time hypochrondriac that worries about things rather than think I actually have something. Like the time I ate after someone who had mono two months prior and then spent two weeks worrying about whether I had contracted it. Or the time I took two tylenol and then, unthinking, got a bit buzzed and then spent all night ( Read more... )

I am so busy I am dizzy, but I'm happy. GOD DAMN!!! My life is just crazy, uber crazy, molten crazy spewing everwhere. I love it! I am having fun and getting some shit done. I burn brightly these days. I'll write more stuff when I have time to spare.

AHA! With the help of my bold and fearless roommate Chris, I have successfully ended the tyranny of the spider. It made its fatal mistake when it decided to greet me from my ceiling upon my return from Harry Potter. I captured it in a mason jar, in the process severely debilitating it, and then flushed it down the toilet. I have won the war, and ( Read more... )
