-we gave blood again today! well, we donated platelets. it's a fairly uncomfortable way to spend two hours, but it's nice to feel like my existence isn't totally going to waste. plus i read a little bit. (a very little bit- like 30 pages. ugh. it was too stressful/uncomfortable/distracting to really focus on the book, PLUS the beginning of the ( Read more... )

especially when i spend them in bed watching lots of stuff!

band of brothers: i watched the first ep sometime last week and loved it, and then i drank a bunch of cider friday night, watched it again, and yelled at getaway_machine about how much i love winters and how much ross needed to shut up. (both = A LOT.) and then i watched the rest yesterday and today. I ( Read more... )

01. jesus christ, the book thief. i sobbed. i love everyone in the book, and i could have easily read 400 more pages of them all trying to live their lives. i am still so happy that i randomly decided to finish the book at home one night instead of during my lunch break at work, because i definitely would not have been able to handle reading that ( Read more... )

i finished s4 (i think?) of the west wing last night. i don't really like the last two eps that much- i think zooey is kind of immature and snotty to charlie (not that she deserves what happens, but i just don't give a shit about the build up to it), and blah blah lots of boringness. but the toby/andy stuff just kills me, and the "babies come with ( Read more... )

shows: the damion show was SO GOOD. i really liked both of the other openers, and damion & his band killed it. also: ian and gavin have MATCHING QUESTION MARK TATTOOS. i am dead from the adorable. i love his whole band so much that i can't pick a favorite band member. and then it was super-late so we only got to hear one austin lucas song. i'm ( Read more... )

1. kl and i went to see the girl with the dragon tattoo. i think i enjoyed it much more as a movie than i ever would have as a book ( Read more... )

one episode left of the west wing. i've been busting my ass all weekend to get to this point, and now i don't want to watch it cos then it'll be over. what's wrong with me ( Read more... )

sam? sam. SAM. SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!!!

(almost done almost done sweet lord almighty we are almost done!)

-i'm going to jersey this weekend. nana's sick (her kidneys failed last week, but they said she's doing a lot better now) and i have two cousins i haven't met yet and also surf taco is calling to me. anyway, plane tickets have been purchased! (guess this rules out both the florida music festival and driving to randomass, sc to see doughty.) (i ( Read more... )

you know, a lot of stupid shit gets said on the west wing, but i think this takes this cake for me:

"These are young people who've taken a couple of years out of their lives to bring food to a drought-stricken, civil-war-riddled nation. Of course they're religious."
excuse me? OF COURSE they're religious? OF COURSE ( Read more... )
