a few things
Today I worked a double and made the big-bucks (hooray!). There was a mcdavis look-alike in the section next to me, weird. I have packed for my New Years getaway! Approximately 12 hours will be spent in travel, the other 24 will be spent drinking beverages and celebrating 2010 with some good people. I am excited about my outfit. I have to get up at 5:45 AM so I must bid you all adieu!
Have a safe...

Tyra
So, I’m watching Tyra . Yeah yeah, I know. But the thing is, I love Tyra Banks. First of all, she is a beast. She is gorgeous and amazonian. She is bat-shit crazy. And she knows how to make a pretty penny while remaining absolutely ridiculous. RespeK.
In the meantime, are YOU willing to risk your life in order to lose weight on the tape worm diet? LOLLLERCOASTER

Today I went cross country skiing with my father, my cousin and my uncle. It was absolutely gorgeous out and the perfect amount of snow on the ground. I might add that I am the least graceful cross country skiier ever. I looked like a damn fool the entire time. Much fun though!
Now making potato gruyere gratin avec mamaa. It’s gonna be tasty.

I can’t decide if it is my tooth ache or my conscience keeping me up at this point.
I spent my last $50 on finalizing my New Years plans and transportation. A $50 well spent. 2010 is looking prettyyy nice already.

This morning I went to my Oral Surgeon for my post-surgery checkup. Turns out I DO in fact have stage three dry socket (gross). This doesn’t mean much other than I need to stick to a liquid diet for a few days more.
Of course, being me, I can interpret that as I wish (hello whiskey).
Shenanigans involving snow and beverages to be happening this evening with my best friends and I could not...
This is terribly sad →
This made me and my mother weep. Sad but beautifully done.

What a great day. This has completely made up for my week of inhabiting the couch. Currently watching Enchanted (again) and drinking cocoa.
p.s. I want to see The Last Song starring Miley Cyrus. Don’t judge me.

Per request of my mother
and several friends who live quite far away…I have agreed to the alternative of creating a new facebook. This will weed out the thousand or so people I have no interest in keeping in touch with. That sounds bitchy but it doesn’t make any sense to receive updates on a girl I met when I was in the 9th grade musical who smelled funny and never said more than one word to me. No sense at...
Sleepless in Seattle currently on Bravo
It is totally a Meg Ryan Tom Hanks night. I am so down!

It’s on right now, officially making this the BEST SNOW DAY EVERRRRR.
Also watching. Classic! All I need is the snow…
Unattainable (?)
I was thinking about some of the things and traits I admire in other people that I have a lot of trouble achieving. This is what I came up with: minimalism, spontaneity, calm. Perhaps these will be a part of this years resolution.
Dear Facebook,
We’ve been on and off for about four years now and it’s about time we really end things. As much as we both enjoy social media, you are a distraction from very important people and things in my life. You’re not the person you once were, not the networking site I fell in love with. Now you bombard me with requests of virtual farms, fish tanks, and even people. At...

I don’t want to have to “recover” from anything ever again. Seriously, this sucks a hell of a lot more than I had anticipated. My face is still puffy. My jaw still aches. I don’t want to be a baby about it because it’s such a minor surgery but I can’t do anything without my head pounding. I am never eating cream of wheat, ice cream, or robeks ever again.
If I...
Video Game Appeal
Last night was spent playing Need for Speed and eating grilled cheese with a former boyfriend. While I do admit it was a lot of fun, I could have gone without the video game. It completely detracted from conversation and, more importantly, I lost every time. Unless we are playing Frogger, Bomber Man, or Sonic (on Dreamcast, duh) you can count me out.
He laughed at my puffy face but said I still...
my face hurts (insert joke)
But seriously, it kills. People have said day two is the worst and I’m starting to agree. I’m going to try and avoid the narcs today because, although they do make me feel nice, they make me feel like puking.
Sasha was kind enough to wake up with me this morning. She is now curled up in a ball on my lap.
Going to finish that paper HAVE to finish that paper by 3pm...

Currently viewing Fly Away Home and reaffirming my love of Jeff Daniels (with a beard), fashion trends of the mid-nineties, and Mary Chapin Carpenter tear-inducing soundtracks.
Panic! At the Library
qts:
I’ve been working on this stupid essay for about 4 hours, the last of which have been spent in the company of an acned young Asian man. He is wearing a grey button down shirt and a grey cardigan, but they’re not hip. Neither are his glasses. For the past 30 minutes, he has been leaning back in his chair, fingers steepled, calmly staring at his computer. I can’t see what’s on the screen, but...
Re: Stacks
This my excavation and today is kumran Everything that happens is from now on This is pouring rain This is paralyzed I keep throwing it down two-hundred at a time It’s hard to find it when you knew it When your money’s gone And you’re drunk as hell On your back with your racks as the stacks as your load In the back the racks and the stacks are your load In the back with your...

I don’t have any reason to be sad this evening, but I am. I have a glass of red wine, I’m nearly done with my paper, and, above all, I’m home. I should be happy!
I was just thinking about the things that make me happy; live music, good conversation, playing with my dogs, discovering a new way to cook a vegetable, peace and quiet in my apartment, catching the eye of a cute...

I feel like if it’s worth texting, it’s worth calling. So why have the former?

What Is Hip?
I have wanted to write about my thoughts concerning all of this hipster nonsense for a while now and today, while not-writing my final paper, I finally had the opportunity. I always come back to the same conclusion: to each his own (and for those of you that like stuff to be PC; to each their own). Seriously, people have their undies in a bundle for no reason! The fact that there is suddenly a...
church
I like going to church with my family because my siblings and I continue to act like we are 2, 8, and 10 years old rather than 13, 17, and 19.
This includes, but is not limited to, the following:
drawing inappropriate pictures on the bulletin covers
making up lyrics to the hymns and singing like old ladies
squishing the communion bread into tiny cubes
taking shots when it comes time for...
