A good way to commemorate my 10-year anniversary of turning 21
There is not a lot to say about my second day of being 31, except that I learned a very important lesson about other people buying you drinks, which is keep eating, oh my god.

"But you don't either," she said. "You always eat a few hours after you wake up." It just struck me, to have someone know you so well, to just say something ( Read more... ) -
The Pearly Gates had such eloquent graffiti
Well, I did this last year and really enjoyed it; this year I am kind of bowled over by how many drabbles I wrote.

(Untitled)
I am having a strange experience. I have just finished watching the first season of Friday Night Lights, and, predictably, cheered and shrieked and had to pause several times to shake off the OMGOMGOMG. And now the first season is over, and I will be poking at Hulu for the second before I decide whether I want to buy it or not. But that's not the ( Read more... ) -
Weekend has been a grand success!
- vidavluz and I went to the Lincoln Park Zoo today! I have about 125 pictures I need to sort through and figure out which to post, because, well, animals are cute. Let's put it this way: aardvark in a bucket. No, I am not kidding. It is adorable.

Tequila shots and I smell like smoke.
So, I just realized that given the choice between Dean Winchester and Jon Spencer, I would probably explode.
I don't know what to say about SPN 3x04 yet. It felt like filler, but I'm curious about where the plot is going now. They have to start feeding us meaty plot soon. littlewings04 had some interesting propositions, though. I'm going to have to go back and ( Read more... ) -

Oh, fuck it, I have no self-control.
Hush, all of you. I've spent today re-reading Ulysses. Halfway through and you'd be stir-crazy too.
Browncoats, you will be pleased with Item #72 on this year's Scav list. (To those of you unfamiliar with Scav Hunt, the greatest spectacle man and geek have ever known, see here.) I am sad that I can't really participate this year, but given the ( Read more... ) -
A leaf on the wind.
I just watched Serenity again for the first time since its wide release in theaters.
I still can't handle it. I shake and I cry and curl up every time.
