I just had the most annoying weekend. My mom, sister, and mom's cousin came into town for a run and...I remembered 1. how much I love living alone and 2. how I am driven crazy by how...inane my family is. My mom is a fantastic mom, but we think so differently. I've tried to put into words what it is that really makes me irked when I spend any ( Read more... )

I just finished the Dressrosa arc. Holy cow. I might need to let it simmer for a bit but...it may be one of my favorite arcs? Oda writes amazing background characters and events at baseline, but he really outdid himself on this arc. The Corazon flashback? I actually teared up at the end. And Doflamingo is one of the most heinous villains we've ( Read more... )

OMG. How the hell did Daredevil go under the radar for me for so many years? I watched the entire Netflix series this past weekend and am in the process of doing a re-watch. I love it! And there's not enough of it (though, I have to say, TV series is a much better medium than movies for superheros I feel). So, yeah, I want MORE (and, I wish they'd ( Read more... )

Saturday was an extremely fun game and the B-side game in which I whored for the other team was even more fun. It was remarkable to see just how different that team's personality is from the one I currently play with: they were more shouty/mean to their own players and just, overall, not nearly as fun to play with. I really hope that 1. the place ( Read more... )

This week has been amazing for my ego. Tuesday's guys' practice had that guy ask our assistant coach what position I was going to play for our women's 7s team and he replied that I was propping, to which the first guy exclaimed, "What? She's a prop?" with the insinuation being that I'm not as big as most props. Later, he thought I should be the ( Read more... )

I totally wore myself out, I think. Tuesday I went to a fitness session for rugby in which we just ran sprints (it really wasn't too bad, but my thighs were SO sore from Sunday's practice, and during the last sprint, they turned to jelly) and then went immediately to the school fields for Ultimate, in which I ran the entire game because there were ( Read more... )

I'm feeling so goddamned content right now. I'm taking a break from perusing some entries from 2010 and seeing how far I've come (and how much has stayed constant) in five years. I also just woke up from a fantastic nap after eating a pretty decent-sized cookie cake. Because apparently I have a huge desire to get diabetes.

Bootcamp continues to ( Read more... )

 I FINALLY got all caught up during my drive to practice on Monday (and got to hear the preface of the last two episodes: so NOW that I'm ALL caught up and waiting for new episodes, THEY'RE TAKING A BREAK?!?) and, holy shit. I have to admit, I was hesitant to get back into it because I forgot how good it was and thought music was a more interesting ( Read more... )

I just had the BEST weekend.

But first, last Tuesday, I thoroughly devoured the newest Cabal novel The Brothers Cabal. I won't go into a full-blown review because I really wanna get to documenting my weekend, but I'll just give this preliminary synopsis: it was AMAZING. Quite possibly the best of the series. Definitely the most witty and well- ( Read more... )

OMG. So third year of med school took me COMPLETELY out of the loop because apparently James Spader had been in a series filmed last year that I had NOT heard about until earlier this week. I looked it up and it looked...meh. But it had James Spader in it, so I gave it a shot and HOMG. The Blacklist was EXCELLENT. Fantastic characters/cast all ( Read more... )
