I've been dreaming kind of vividly for the past few nights. Not sure why. I think I usually get an increase of remembering strange dreams around the time I'm ovulating from all the hormones, but it's too soon in the month for that ( Read more... )

Last night I was all set to sit down and write a post about something. It was around midnight and I didn't feel like sleeping yet. But the internet went out for no good reason and instead I did other things like delete a ton of old install files for past versions of VLC ( Read more... )

ONTD posted some news about how the Sailor Moon manga are going to be reprinted in America starting in September. This is all very exciting, and made me want to get back into the show and look into the manga (I'm sure my Japanese is much to terrible to read through them in the original Japanese, sad but true ( Read more... )

My mom made me go to church with her. We're in the church that we used to go to when we lived in California, but it's a lot different. Though some of the same people still go there, it's also got all gospel-y with the addition of black people (in a 20-of-us-on-a-good-day sized congregation, we were the only black people), and got this whole mission ( Read more... )

A dream: I'm at some sort of academic conference. My mom is an instructor there, giving lectures on biology. The place the conference is being held is a large, old mansion. Think of how the house in the movie Clue is decorated. I'm wandering around and checking the schedule. My mom's giving two talks, one on Biology, and one on Biology 101. It is ( Read more... )

Rainy weather has come to Seattle. I think I like a good old down pour over Seattle's misty bullshit any day, but what are you going to do ( Read more... )

Man, baby crazy Thursday. Not really. But a little. Like, okay, this is what happened: Wednesday night I was reading Dark Tower VII and one of the characters finally had her baby, and of course terrible things happened after, cuz it's Stephen King, but that could partly explain why I dreamed that I was taking care of a baby. Of course it wasn't my ( Read more... )

I'm always amused by the recommendations Amazon gives me. In the past I've looked at kids' books, comic books, and history books, so today I ended up with "Corduroy," "Batman #687," and "The Blackwell Encyclopedia of Anglo-Saxon England."

I just finished watching Mad Men and my mind is all a-flurry! Pete and Ken and Paul and Harry! And Roger and Cooper! And Joan and Helge! And SAL! And Don! I don't even know what the best part was: watching Pete pitch a hissy fit over his dual promotion with Ken, or watching Sal get it on with the bell boy. It was truly too much for me to handle for ( Read more... )

Why is it that my armpit hair grows so much faster than my leg hair? That's not fair, as one is infinitely more gross than the other.

Corey took me to Half Price Books, so of course I walked away with two books. This time it's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, both by Douglas Adams, because why not ( Read more... )
