So . . . basically, I've just found out that LJ has it in for anyone without high-speed internet, just like everyone else. I mean, it's now clear that the reason I can't post on LJ from home has to do with the fact that the rich text bar doesn't load with any speed, rather than that I am truly prevented from using it.

Pfui.

Anyhow, that's neither ( Read more... )

I'm at the declaring it "thingy" stage of writing a subject header ( Read more... )

I get they say it because they care. Really. I do ( Read more... )

But that's neither here nor there. My cousin is getting married. And already the weirdness starts. Last time the weirdness didn't start until the bride and groom were on the four hundredth consecutive traditional dance with the parents and in-law parents (the number of remarried divorcees on the floor and their attached step-parents was impressive ( Read more... )

So I was reading Ky's childhood memory of Memorial Day and I got to thinking about childhood memories. I have tons after all. Somewhere, far, far, far back in the depths of this LJ is the tale of the Fish That Would Not Die And Thus Freaked Out My Mother. And the horror of the "Winter Pageant" at my school when I was in Grade 7. Funny thing is ( Read more... )

Do you ever contemplate how different you would be if you'd been to a different high school? The question was raised in my mind after I accompanied a friend to the ten-year birthday of the school she went to. It was created in 1995 and she was part of the "founding" class. I heard all the many many many many many many speeches by the various school ( Read more... )

Okay, here's the deal. My father defended something the other day and I have to know the opinions of others on the matter. It's an issue that dates back to my high school days so it's been a good six years since it happened but certain thoughts on my part at least remain clear.

When I was in high school our sports teams, especially the basketball ( Read more... )

So we are in the final countdown to the law school musical. I can't believe it's almost over ( Read more... )

And that has nothing to do with anything. I was just wandering around on ff.net and ran across this title and decided I had to use it. After all, what's life without senseless remarks in French? Not much if you're one of my dearest friends who spent about a month freaking out that poor French exchange student in high school by repeatedly telling ( Read more... )

I fell like that guy in the run at the end of Star Wars on the Death Star. You know, the guy who says, "Almost there. Almost there," over and over and over until you're ready to shriek, "You said you were almost there like five minutes ago! Clearly your definition of 'almost there' is wrong!" Or maybe that's just me ( Read more... )
