sup, humans.
Since when did I start reading fanfiction again?? Write it, sure; that's something I don't think I'll ever escape, ever since I was 10 and wrote what I considered to be quite an epic about Cassie from Animorphs being brutally murdered while Jake was on the phone with her. (...I don't even want to begin to examine the psychology behind that one. I ( Read more... ) -

"Come to Starbucks! ...wait, no, are you with Steph? ...no, WE'RE in Starbucks. Well, you must be at a different one. ...just tell her you're going home. ...okay, good! We're on the top floor! See you ( Read more... ) -

Today is my apartment inspection and, while apparently the intelligent thing is to be around when the person is there in order to obscure and/or defend the poor state of your home, I basically live in terror of the extreme social awkwardness that is having a repair-person/landlord/non-personal visitor snooping around my apartment while I hover ( Read more... ) -

Hi guys! The sun has returned to London and, with it, my ability to function like a human being! I've always known that I am strangely dependent on sunlight (maybe I am part plant like Zhaan, but no photogasms yet) but it's never really hit home before this year. There was a good month there where I was just sick on and off and and basically doing ( Read more... ) -

A very specific lesson I learned this weekend: Do not spend two hours reading Stephen King short stories just before having to wait alone at 1 AM in an abandoned East London neighbourhood, especially if one of the stories takes place on the same exact day you happen to be reading it. This will result in completely irrational terror until you board ( Read more... ) -

Well, I am sick and trapped in London! I should be at my parents' house watching Indiana Jones on their new TV with my dog, parents, sister and a glass of wine, but instead I woke up this morning with a cold (again) and don't have a flight home until Friday ( Read more... ) -

YES i haven't remembered a dream in so long!!
I am super late to meet Sally for a day of shopping on Oxford and Regent Streets (they're shutting down the streets to cars, so it's crazy pedestrians only!! and a ferris wheel, apparently!), but I just had to record my dream: I ran a marathon wherein you also had to finish reading 3 short graphic novels and a prose novella. Like, you had to run ( Read more... ) -

HA HA LOOK AT HOW LONG POSTING EVERY DAY LASTED.
I was tired and I had gelato for dinner even though it was below zero outside, that is a thing that I did.
I am, once again, tired, so I think I am going to call it a night in, even though it is Friday, and stay home watching Dexter. Maybe I will eat real food tonight instead of garbage, but this ( Read more... ) -

Whenever I start rereading old journal entries I get VERY SAD that I don't write them anymore, so...here I am! My problem, I think, is that everything I don't email or Facebook to actual individuals, I Tweet, so I start to feel like LJ is totally redundant.
