I'm having mixed feelings about this month.

In the...week plus a day since I've posted, things have gone conflictingly. Well, I guess mostly well but with one jarring note that, while I've mostly let it go, this too shall pass, still--I must confess--irks me a bit. (Also, pleaaaaaase watch that video. In a definition as high as you can. I wasn't ( Read more... )

Oh, hey, yeah. I'm in Stanwood right now, have been since Tuesday. The time's gone pretty quick, although it's mostly been hanging out around the house. I just missed the Washington heat wave so it's been pretty cold, colder than it was in Santa Cruz, which is a shame since I brought a bunch of sundresses and stuff to enjoy in what I thought would ( Read more... )

I'm telling you, people, Scotty Got an Office Job.

Seriously.

Also, I am pleased that Lifetime is showing a marathon of Golden Girls (yeah, yeah, shut up), but I'm so sad for the reason. R.I.P. Bea Arthur, we loved you well. Unlike the hyacinth I named after you, I never thought you would go.

In other news, I made polenta for the first time.

Just wanna say.

"Scotty Got an Office Job" is one of the greatest things ever. Seriously. I know most of you don't need extra crap to look at on the internet (and some of y'all have probably already seen him on Laughing Squid), but I mean it. Start with episode 1 and work your way from there:

So! All that hemming and hawing about Beyond Identity with Godzich turned out to be for naught, since, as I should have expected, the minute enrollment appointments started up on Thursday morning that class was full in a heartbeat. In the end, I signed up for Hiero 2 and The Future, as expected, and then took a stab in the dark and signed up for ( Read more... )

Okay, life is less of a big hot tranny mess. Just busy and tiring, blah blah blah, privileged college student bitches about her oh-so-hard life. Allow me to build a ladder and get over myself ( Read more... )

Okay, so here's the deal. Amanda Palmer is amazing and cool and a brilliant musician, right? But apparently her record label thinks she's too fat in her video for "Leeds United" and told her to recut the video to show less of her "belly." Really, guys? Really? So, if you're a fan of Amanda and think that Roadrunner needs to go shove their heads up ( Read more... )

How is it so hot in the middle of November? Please, someone tell me. It's dumb-cold at night and dumb-hot during the day...I wish the weather would at least make up its mind. I'm good and ready for some chilly days, perchance some rain. I don't want my new secondhand long-sleeve shirts to go to waste ( Read more... )
