The Man In Black: eternally my spirit animal.

Okay so basically that was amazing.

Hi, Ben, it's good to have you back. Also, I like it when you swear and offer evil smoke-things lemonade.

THE ROUSSEAUS. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

I liked some of the vaguely Bichardy undertones here. Oh, Ricardo? You'd best be alive. Worst comes to worst, you and Frank can hang out in Cool Old Guy Limbo.

Whyyyyy couldn't the ( Read more... )

This week's episode of LOST: best early birthday present ever.

( Cue me spazzing about things in no particular order. )

Today I wore my new Dharma Initiative shirt to school, and it got the best reactions ever. I kid you not, half a dozen people I didn't even know stopped me in the hall to compliment me on it/have a minor flail-fest about the premiere.

( Cut for spaz-flailing, picspammage, and me freaking out over middle-aged rockstars. )

I spent last night at J's, and was struck by several important revelations:

1. The reason I haven't been writing lately is shockingly simple. For me, writing is an escape. I want to be here now, not somewhere else. Huh. Go figure.

2. As bad as large living-room-invading house centipedes are during the daytime, they are infinitely more terrifying at ( Read more... )

Dude, this morning was awesome.

I've been interested in biology, especially zoology, forever. I blame it on watching too much Crocodile Hunter when I was a kid. So when I got the chance to visit the herpetology lab at Davidson college, I was thrilled. (Turns out the professor is the dad of one of my IB friends from back in ninth grade -- how cool is ( Read more... )

CAPSLOCK IS NOW DEFAULT ON ENGLAND-BASED ENTRIES, BY THE WAY, BY ORDER OF SAMMY --

MY ENGLAND-TRIP JOURNAL IS NOW UP AND RUNNING. BEHOLD ITS GLORIOUSNESS:
