"She's So Adorable, She Couldn't Be A Stinker!"
Spiffy new icon, you like? (THAT IS WHY EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH KARA NO KYOUKAI)
So the week in a nutshell.
Last Friday I went to anime club with Alec and watched Cowboy Bebop. GUYS IT IS JUST LIKE FIREFLY. Well if Firefly was an anime... and not done by Joss... and didn't have Nathan... or Summer... or um well anyway. Jet is a decent Mal, notgonnalie.
Anyway, long story short, the Noir peeps decided to pre-game the Falstaff party, by which I mean Alec drank a whole mug of vodka like I told him not to and guess who got to drag him all the way back up the hill to Wilmarth? Me. Because I am, to quote Kate, “hilariously sober”. In my defense, I actually tried to get “crazy drunk” this Friday and IT DIDN’T WORK. I ONLY GOT MORE ARTICULATE AND RATIONAL. WHAT.
So both this Saturday and last Saturday we went out for sushi Thai, which is delicious. Except last Saturday we went to Price Chopper afterward. Not the Ghetto Chopper- that's on the edge of town- but the legit Price Chopper. Grocery shopping is so much fun with people. XD I spent literally like ten minutes helping Haylee decide what kind of chocolate milk to buy.

In other brief social news, I mentioned that guy Jon? And he’s like the only other Lit nerd I know and also he’s really cute and extremely nice? I just wanted to establish here that he’s a cute, nice Lit nerd. Also he’s single. Also we’re supposed to have a poetry jam today. :3
ONTO THINGS THAT PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY INTERESTED IN.
So I think I found my 2011 NaNo project. It's called "H+"... Oh my God, I'm really excited about it. Basically it’s based on this dream I had, where there was this detective that was investigating this subway explosion? And it was really gritty and dystopian and everything, and the autopsy lady from SVU was there, and she was like, “I’ve been sorting through kneecaps and elbows all morning, and I can only tell you one thing. All of these people had type H+ blood.”
Seems nonsensical, right? Well what if the government developed a new type of blood to boost the performance of soldiers? What if it worked, and the blood started to incorporate itself into the population, and then something went wrong and it created a viral apocalypse? And then it went into remission and people were still left trying to get by and then the government covered up the fact that it was ever their fault? AND THEN this doctor however many generations later discovered that the H+ virus was going to recover but he couldn’t do anything because the government was still trying to hide it and so he had to take it into his own hands and track down and kill everyone with type H+ blood so that they didn’t fucking infect the rest of the population whenever this thing came back? And then this detective has to figure all of this out and then he figures out that holy shit this thing is going to come back like right now and then WHAT IF AT THE END OF THE STORY EVERYONE FUCKING DIED?
H+, ladies and gentlemen.
More nerdery. Different subject. I’ve been playing Yugioh with Desmond and Andrew. Yup. I’m that guy.
I thought Beekley was a Snumbridge? No. My Lit Studies professor is a Snumbridge. LADY, YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM. WHAT IS IT.
Yep. We were talking about “colorblind racism” in history last week, and I referenced Avenue Q’s Everyone’s a Little Bit Racist. Also that Hark A Vagrant comic about the Kennedys. But I think Professor Delton appreciated it. She reminds me of Prof. Trewlaney a little bit. She’s like, “Okay, so you did the reading about LBJ. During his term- wait, did we talk about the assassination of Kennedy? No? Well, Kennedy got shot. Moving on…”
Noir is awesome. It is the best class. We have the coolest people. We all hang out and watch the Maltese Falcon and do whatever the hell we want. We are the classiest, more badass seminar. :)
