So, yesterday, while I was in the middle of writing and talking to Steph and being bored, my sister unexpectedly calls and tells me she's in town, and she's dropping by with both her kids (Joel and Carl, 2 and 5 years old). I went \o/ OMG I NEED TO CLEAN MY APT, so I rushed around doing what I could for fifteen minutes, which means clearing the ( Read more... )

Holy crap, it's been a while since I posted. I took an impromptu kind of hiatus from LJ for a while there, but I might be on my way back. I think. The thought of going through my flist is a little scary though ( Read more... )

Merry Christmas everyone! Man, I miss you guys. I have to admit though, I'm a little daunted by the sheer amount of entries on my flist. What have I missed the past what, three or four days?

Got books for Christmas, books and CDs (Tom Waits! !! !!!! *flail*). Have been reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and The Secret Garden and now I'm in ( Read more... )

Christmas spirit in the Eriksson household, people! Or not. My sleeping schedule right now makes me want to punch people, but on the upside, I got things done today. Like say showering! And gift wrapping, and cleaning! Not flist though. Alas.

'Sup, guys. I'm back in the land where the snow lies deep and the sun never shines, fucking finally, and it only took me, oh, what, 20 hours or so. Yay. My shoulders are killing me, it's fucking freezing, I'm rank like a rank thing, and my throat is achey, but I'm home.

When you see this, post ten things you love about your hometown, your homestate/province, home country, etc.Uh. I suppose Ullatti, then ( Read more... )

I just had a three hour grammar midterm. Explaining prepositions is arguably one of the most annoying fucking things in the world. Gah. It probably went to hell, because I suck at explaining grammar ( Read more... )

I talked feminist history with my mother for an hour tonight, and before that spoke to my sister for an hour and a half. They were both in a good mood and willing to talk. Also, nothing fires mom up like feminism. I miss my nephews and nieces something fierce right now though. I have a lot of pictures of them on my camera, and I showed a few pics ( Read more... )

Reading Twilight. Very slowly, mind, because I have to stop every other paragraph to roll my eyes and/or facepalm and growl. So far I've written about 2 pages worth of sarcastic commentary just so I won't headdesk in pure frustration ( Read more... )

I should not be online today. I HATE April Fools with a fiery passion, and the only redeeming quality is that it's my Dad's birthday. But, I need to tell you all this:

MY BROTHER HAD A BABY. FINALLY. I'M AN AUNT AGAIN. *\o/*I didn't find out until two hours ago, but apparently my brother's little girl was born at 5 A.M. yesterday. Name is as of ( Read more... )
