I will say straight up, I haven't check my flist in ages, but I wanted to update something ( Read more... )

Then help feed people!  Woo!

My mom let me know about this vocabulary game, and I have to admit, I was forced to get a little internet help on just the sixth word.  I have a pretty good vocabulary, but I was learning new words.  For every word you get right, the organiztion donates 10 grains of rice, so you're actually doing good while being a word ( Read more... )

My uncle just gave me a heads up about this.  He heard it on NPR and assumed that I was in the know, but I hadn't heard at all.

It relates to Lord of the Rings and online videos: LOOK.

Airplane Maintenance

Just in case you need a laugh: Remember it takes a college degree to fly a plane, but only a high school diploma to fix one. Reassurance for those of us who fly routinely in our jobs. After every flight, Quantas pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The ( Read more... )

Good Christmas, I had.  (Quoth I in Yoda-phonics...  O.o)

I'm down visiting family in Georgia.  It's my dad's side of the family, and there's a hell of a lot more of it than up in Annapolis with my Mom's side of the family.  My aunt had kids far earlier than my dad, so that her oldest grandchild is older than my elder brother.  All told, I have 3 ( Read more... )

I've developed a kind of bad habit.  My internal chronometer is four or five hours off of where it theoretically should be.  See, I've become partially nocturnal.  Instead of 8am to 11pm or so, I pretty much live 10am or 11am to 3am or 4am.  This is not going to be helpful when I start classes again. >.>

My brother is here.  I've seen him twice.  I ( Read more... )

So.

I haven't been taking care of myself super well lately. Not really badly either, mind you. Mom apparently told childminerva  that I passed out from not eating two or three weeks ago, but I don't remember that happening for months. Because, yes, I have been known to do that.

It's more stuff like not giving a damn about school, putting off doing laundry ( Read more... )

You know who's kind of awesome?  (Other than you, of course.  You know who you are... and if you don't, call me and I'll either confirm or shatter your puny illusions...  >.>  It's possible that I'm in a wierd mood.  But in my defence, Rick Blunt is screaming wierdly right underneath where I'm sitting.)  My roommate, that's who!

You know what's kind ( Read more... )

Look!  LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK!  I am HAPPEH!

Summer blues? What the hell is the point of being bummed out in the summer? ::le sigh::

For added fun, I have no job. As such, anyway. I applied for one ages ago, and seeing as I STILL haven't heard anything, I gave up and figured I'd get around to looking for another. Hm. Oooooooooor, my mom could wake me up and say that our contracter would ( Read more... )
