I don't really know why I'm writing this. It's been so long since I've written anything, and somewhere in the back of my mind is this buzzing that tells me I need to express myself, put something down on paper (or computer), vent, release, or else I'll bust. But somehow this doesn't feel truly appropriate, and so I'm writing with the voice of my ( Read more... )

Joy and I had an absolute fabulous time in Britain and Ireland... Well ( Read more... )

We're going to LONDON!!! And Edinburgh, Scotland for the Fringe festival!! And Dublin, Ireland! Whoo hoo!!! We've been planning a celebratory trip for after I graduate, and Joy stumbled upon this great fare from Atlanta, so naturally we jumped on it. I can't believe it. And more than that, we'll be there during The Fringewhich is like this really ( Read more... )

My lady love has left me... well, for a few days at least. She's in Belize for 4 days, and will be back on Wednesday. It's funny, I'd periodically sit here and think to myself, there are SOOOOO many things I really want to do, but in the interest of being considerate, I dull those emotions, those urges, cause I need to spend more time at home. Now ( Read more... )

So, there was a lizard looking down at me when I woke up this morning. It just lay there on the top of my tent puzzling on what this weirdo is doing in its neck of the woods, I guess. Yeah, we had a fantastic time at the Florida Folk Festival. Danced my ass off!! ...and my knees... and the soles of my feet... and Robin, Alyssa, Lini, etc. kept on ( Read more... )

Went to a drum recital of west african drumming this evening, and it has me REALLY homesick. I've been listening to Garifuna music all evening since coming home. Played my drums for a while, and now I'm resorting to whiskey to put me in a better mood. Not turning out the way I planned. Not really feeling any better. Just worse. I wanna go home ( Read more... )

"Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty
in the moonlight
overthrew you
She tied you
To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne,
she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah "

So, I've got this thing with Cohen going right now. Specifically with this ( Read more... )

Raicheal has this really long list that she posted on her LJ that's fascinating to read. It's a different take on the usual friend surveys that you pass around to get to know obscure little things about your partners-in-crime. This one is like a checklist and you tick off (or insert an X in) the items that you've done in your lifetime. I'm sure I ( Read more... )

Today has been loooooonggggg. I had a three hour class this afternoon. The prof. was ok, he tried to make the lecture lively, but damn, sitting in ONE class for THREE hours and FIFTEEN minutes is a bit extreme for my tastes. As far as graduation, I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and I just want to get done, but you know when you're ( Read more... )

We got bikes yesterday. Fairly expensive bikes. Figured we could start getting around town on our own power for a change, and stop (or at least reduce) our dependence on fossil fuels. Beautiful concept, right? Until you realize how fuckin' hilly Tallahassee is! My calves and thighs are so bloody sore right now, I can't begin to describe. And with ( Read more... )
