I feel like I should be punching myself repeatedly in the face.

I have six hours to finish another ten pages AT LEAST of a historiography paper, and then only six after that in which to sleep and to prepare my notes to present said paper to class and lead the following discussion. Why do I do this to myself? Why?

1) Seriously, I don't think I'd realized just how fucked my browser was until tonight when I'm using it and it's fixed again. This is like Christmas for me ( Read more... )

1) Oh my god, my internet works again.

I mean, it was working before, but the lag time on my browser was so extreme I was poking at it frantically trying to understand why I couldn't type more than half a sentence at a time without it needing to buffer. So I went ahead and did my twice-yearly uninstall of programs and add-ons that I don't use and ( Read more... )

Fun fact: the first paperback copy of The Communist Manifesto that comes up on Amazon is priced at $6.66. Does anyone else find that hilarious, or just me?

I thought, "Man, that looks like something out of a Batman cartoon," and then the tiny fraction of my soul that is not a nerd died a little ( Read more... )

This icon makes me sad to look at. I got it early in season one, and four years so many horrible things have happened to his character that the "New Day" text seems wrong. Dean looks so young there! But it's still a very pretty icon, and I like it ( Read more... )

This is the week of "I hate my life." I have the rough draft of my big research paper for my senior seminar due on Monday at nine am, and while I've got almost all of my necessary research in line, I haven't gotten any further on the actual writing parts than doing my outline. On the other hand, I have a great topic that I care about on an ( Read more... )

So today was the first day of class. Man, did I ever screw myself on my scheduling. Thursdays, I'm in class from 9:30 to 10:45, then I have an hour and a half to kill, then I'm in class for another hour fifteen, then I have two hours to kill, and then I have a three hour night class. I think that night class only meets about seven or eight times ( Read more... )

As a coda to my fanmix post: holy shit, even the cute songs by Imogen Heap are weird. Take "Say Goodnight and Go," for instance. It's this cute, bubblegum song about unrequited love. The chorus goes like this:
