It rained in Ridgecrest on Monday. On Tuesday, as I walked to work, I saw the puddle and thought "Eww. Even puddles look disgusting in Ridgecrest", and it was true, for this puddle had some sort of milky film over it, like a pot of water used to cook noodles had sat out overnight ( Read more... )

In the greatest belatedly discovered tragedy ever, I am missing all the photos from 10/12 - 10/20. This including the period where I wandered SE Turkey, COMPLETELY ON MY OWN, encountering NO OTHER FOREIGNERS, so that there is no possibility of ever tracking down someone who had accidentally taken a photo of me on say, Mt Nemrut (of the fallen heads ( Read more... )

It is officially sad when you come home, clean up. And change into your WoWing clothes. Then settle a mug of tea for when you get thirsty and can't leave your character untended in a patrolled area. I knew it was bad when I used a hairpin to keep my hair from moving out from under the headset ( Read more... )

The UCSB Parking Admin has now made my shit list. Having forced me to buy their stinking sticker and delaying its arrival in the mail, they then proceeded to ticket me for not placing aforementioned sticker onto the windshield. THEN, after making me submit my appeal, all appeals are done online, they respond (rejected) after 2.5 weeks, witch counts ( Read more... )

In other news, I took a bus up to Pai the day before yesterday, It involved 3 hours in the back of a bus going up an almost as tiny mountain road at ludicrous speeds. This is after I had a bag of noodles, a leg of chicken, and 5 cream filled breadstuffs for breakfast. I proceeded to read for two of those hours, and a peculiar sensation bubbled up ( Read more... )
