And so ends my year of the weddings ( Read more... )

So Jeff and Lance and I got to the wedding venue super early because Jessica accidentally tricked us.  Which was fine, because we got to see Brandon and his fellow taking pictures on the lawn, and we played a few rounds of "oh I forgot this" and "maybe I should put this back in the car" and "are we allowed to sit down in there ( Read more... )

So I spent the weekend rotting my brain.  I finally finished My Name Is Earl (loved the first two seasons, the second two were mediocre, and the series ending was awful), finished season 4 of Dexter (Mom has let the ending slip, but it was still pretty intense), and started Weeds (got through two amazing seasons; if I had known there were going to ( Read more... )

I finally put up a Christmas tree this week!  I still haven't decorated it, but I will do that tonight.  I've got the tree and a couple wreaths and lots of lights up.  My little house looks and smells mighty nice.  I have been really excited about getting a tree, although I actually just got really homesick once I did.  I missing being able to call ( Read more... )

I seem to have rotten luck when it comes to leaky apartments.  In Polynesian Village we had the burst pipe in the bathroom, leading to wet carpets in O'Brian's room and an apartment so moldy they couldn't rent it after we left.  In Madison Square, half of our living room was sopping wet when the neighbor's water heater broke.  And now, something ( Read more... )

I've been listening to some really great music today.  I mean, really steller, and really all over the place.  Reaons to live forever: books, music, people, flowers.

Last weekend Jessica and I drove up to Auburn for Lance's surprise birthday party!  It was great fun.  We met at Britni and Mark's place, then hid in the closet with Jennifer and ( Read more... )

Recently I watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, which I enjoyed.  I didn't even realize that Danny DeVito was in it until I was reading the cast list later (looking for Christopher Lloyd, who I had recognized).  I read the book several years ago and enjoyed it.  Yesterday I finished 88 Minutes, an Al Pacino flick that was pretty good.  He's one ( Read more... )

Friday ( Read more... )

It's 1:51 am, CST, and I am awake.

Fancy adjectives and colorful prepositional phrases have become an addiction, but the buck stops here.

The buck stops here?  What does that even mean?

While I'm avoiding this journal because I feel some neurotic need to impress you with my verbage, the days are flying by and my life is going going going.

So.  ( Read more... )

Clarissa Explains It All + The Adventures of Pete and Pete + Are You Afraid of the Dark + a big orange couch + an overflowing popcorn bowl + some of the greatest people this side happy?

My Saturday night was wonderful.  Yes, we had a SNICK night.  T.J., Lindsey, Graham, O'Brian, Jessica, Jonathan, and I got together at my apartment and watched ( Read more... )
