Rockin' the PowerBook

Jul 26, 2005 22:16

So, mofos, this is what it comes down to: my new laptop is the essence of love. I don't need you and your silly human tricks. All I want is the clinking of this keyboard and aaaalllllllll my pretty new widgets. (Except this widget that I'm using to type out this entry is pretty lame. I wonder if I can use Journler to do this ( Read more... )

you're a loser, I'm a loser, we're losers. let us lose together, as one! chaya July 27 2005, 02:32:53 UTC

That was the most public elope session I've ever participated in.

Newhoo insists I started the snog. Please correct her, wifey.

I'm tempted to let that one slide... considering that she was right there, and she should know. But I'll let her know.

Be a loser with me, wifey? *mewls*

chaya July 27 2005, 03:07:36 UTC

Not only right there, but taking the bloody picture.

Always, my love. *dips*

I'm trying to think, the sentence was (approximately)

"Leaving here is like ripping out stitches, so I'm taking the strength of the friends I made to heal."

What did you say again? Because, as always, it's the catalyst to get me crying.

I said (and I'm approximating, too) that from the nine weeks that I've been at Y-dub, I can take away the knowledge and the faith that... I can be happy, too.

i just got a new powerbook too! aren't they beautiful and awesome and amazing?

you are beautiful and awesome and amazing, and so much more than a powerbook. i hope you're doing well.

I don't know about that. Can a human being really be any better than a PowerBook? I mean, people don't do all that Ding and Swoosh and Da-da-duh! stuff that PowerBooks do.

But I guess mankind has its own unique virtues.

You know what happened at workshop? I wrote a poem about a metaphorical California and read it in front of everybody. I thought it was pretty good and I was proud of it, although I admit that it wasn't the most polished piece I've ever presented. As I was leaving the reading, somebody I really respect said to me about my poem, "I like that phrase: East Coast Ugly." Yes, in my entire poem, she liked the line where I quite cleverly CALLED MYSELF UGLY. On the one hand, it was a compliment, but on the other...

Your bit about the laptops reminded me of that incident. You people and your confusing, vague compliments that smack of backhandedness. I don't know whether to feel anger or elation.

what do you say to a t-shirt that says "everyone loves a Lile girl?"

killermuffin July 27 2005, 17:08:13 UTC

I want to design one rull bad. I'm such a poseur

poemetry July 28 2005, 02:30:22 UTC

I dunno what I say to that. On the one hand, I say, HELL YES! On the other ( ... )

killermuffin July 28 2005, 04:54:32 UTC

<3333 How about "everyone loves a Lile girl (especially me)"?

:D :D i wish i was a lilian. you guys were OBVIOUSLY the coolest suite.

EJ!!!!!!! *tacklehug*

Ahem. Yeah, ok, that's the extent of my comment...

poemetry July 28 2005, 02:39:25 UTC

Yah. I'm amazed your frame fit your caricature. Did you have to trim it down?

prettypinkdyke July 28 2005, 20:22:50 UTC

Yeah, I had to trim down a bit, but not much -- only the excess white paper. The entirity of the drawing and signature fits snugly within the limits of the frame.
