I was finishing my reread of Neverness last night (well, almost finishing - I have yet to revisit the Alaloi) and this bit grabbed me.

This is a bit late, but better late than never, eh ( Read more... )

Huh, thought I'd moved past this set of thoughts. Also, been a while since a handful of lyrics from a song have snagged me quite like this. Rest of the song doesn't really match, but that's not how these lyrics for today work, really. x-D ( Read more... )

Well, in my first fiew hours up and about today, life reminded me that apparently insignificant things can actually be pretty damn important. *sigh* It's really time to start taking better care of myself ( Read more... )

So, tonight was really awesome. Hung out with Pacer, Khyle, Zap, Rex and newly-met Dario and Fenrir at the Saucer. Tried a few beers (good drink!), chatted and gossipped and rambled back and forth with a few people. Excellent evening all-around. Must follow up with some people. <3

Ah, summer has come, and with it, my memories of how much I dislike Texas summers and my once-intense desire to live somewhere else. My feet almost itch with the urge to hop in my car and just... drive until I run out of gas. Rather glad I had RCFM and soon-to-be AC to distract me and help satisfy it. :-D

I'm loving, adoring and generally enjoying my current course. Unfortunately, this means that assignments go something like this:

1. Read assignment.
2. Go hunt for information relevant to assignment.
