You're Hideous - And Sexy!
I got the job! Soon I will spend my existence wiping coffee off of various surfaces and probably breaking a register - I'm pumped. I go in tomorrow at 10 to fill out my paperwork ( Read more... ) -
I Am Ready For My Treatment
I finally finished the first season of Dollhouse. I definitely agree with those who said that the show improved as it progressed - although the first half was sufficiently interesting, it was a little too episodic, with a heavy emphasis on Echo's individual missions over the operation of the Dollhouse as whole. But once the focus expanded to ( Read more... ) -
Losing My Religion
I've kind of lost my stride in terms of my Twilight fic. This happened a lot the last time I was involved in fandom - I'd get a surge of creative energy and churn out a few chapters of a fic, and then have a much longer dry spell. It's not a big deal, since it's not like a ton of people are waiting for me to update, but it's sort of annoying. I' ( Read more... ) -
Channeling Sappho
Some say an army of horsemen
some say an army on foot
others say ships laden for war
are the fairest things on earth.
But I say the fairest thing
on this dark earth
is the face of the one you love.
Nor is it hard to understand:
love has humbled the hearts
of the proudest queens.
And I would rather see you now
stepping over my threshold
than any soldier ( Read more... ) -
I Just Set Them Up To Knock Them Down
Hurm. I haven't purged in the last two days; it's kind of a relief. My appetite was completely out of whack all last week, which meant I ate basically nothing the entire day and then, when I ate at night, purged because the bulk of the food felt so uncomfortable after being empty all day. But now I'm trying harder to stick to my meal plan - I ( Read more... ) -
Up-To-Dating You
I've had an odd/eventful couple of days. My friend Shannon is home from Iowa (we went to the same school before I transferred - I don't remember if I've said that already), so we went to see Star Trek yesterday. I had only ever seen The Wrath of Khan (and that was years ago), so I can't really evaluate the movie with authority, but I was ( Read more... ) -
Conjecture
Just wanted to note that I didn't do anything rash last night. Writing about it helped, actually - who knew?
( In which I go on at length about death, because I am apparently goth. ) -
Tides I Try To Swim Against
Sometimes I feel like instead of a soul (or essence, or whatever), I have a hole inside of me - something that pulls me inward and makes it hard to connect with anything on the outside. When it opens up, I have to pry each word out one by one in order to talk; I look at things without seeing them; people's voices take longer to penetrate than they ( Read more... ) -
And I Feel The Way I Feel Because I Need You All The Time
My final grades are in.
Astronomy: B
Chief English Writers: A
Engaging Research: A+
Greek Art & Archaeology: B
Shakespeare: A-
Social Psych: B
I'm kind of upset about Greek Art, because I thought I did well on our final (which was ridiculously hard). I'm surprised at Astronomy, since I got a 66 on the final and didn't have anything better than an 85 ( Read more... ) -
This Is Going To Sound Bitchy, But...
You know how some eating disordered people, when they see other people eating, feel superior because they're resisting? Lately I've been really paranoid that it's happening to me - like, I'll be in public eating lunch, and suddenly I'll wonder if someone with an ED is looking at me and thinking about how weak I am for giving in to my hunger and ( Read more... )
