Playing a little catch up on life while playing with ketchup.

Two Hanson shows in the past two weeks, both at the Viper Room in West Hollywood. I will love that band until I die. I still look at Taylor and feel an overwhelming urge to slam him into the nearest sturdy surface and have my way with him.

Sorry, Trish, I stole your phrase but I couldn't think of a better way to express it. I finally met xchaos_intoart after standing nearby her at two Hanson shows and having no idea. Other people who love Hanson, the Dodgers, and The Office exist.

I started school this week. I'm taking a PE class, research methods, developmental psychology, and chemistry. I'm a bit worried about my chemistry lab professor, but we'll see. I have free time to attend the Psychology Club meetings, and I'm really looking forward to that.

I've been working with Professor Duva to replicate a study done in 1985 on Desirable Body Shapes. I actually posted about the study here before we ever started the research. Anyway, it's coming along better than I thought it would. I'm going to be writing a methods section for the research paper pretty soon and submitting it for publication. I'll hopefully be presenting it at a conference (most likely in Boise, Idaho) eventually.

Jeff and I are fantastic. We've been together a little more than 7 months now. By this time with my ex, I was secretly bored and just floating along. With him, I've realized it's actually really important to be attracted to the person that you're with. I guess that sounds obvious, but apparently I had to learn it. I still have moments in public where I can look at him and say "Damn, that's my boyfriend and he's hot. RAWR." It wasn't that way before with my ex. He applied for permission to take a test to become a firefighter trainee, and they accepted him. His test is in a week or so.

I don't know how many of you remember that post I made venting about how my great aunt had breast cancer, my grandma was in and out of the hospital, and I was stressed out. I deleted the post pretty fast because I decided not to be a cry baby about it. Anyway, if you saw it, that's the only way you would have known that my great aunt Virginia was ill. She passed away about two weeks ago at her home in Los Angeles with her sister, Josie, by her side. I'm better with her death now than I was before, mainly because I've seen how horrific cancer can be. I miss her, but her suffering is over.

And that's all I have to say about that.
