I need to go to bed somewhat early tonight, so I'll try to keep this short:

Movies that were great:

• A Separation
• The Fall
• Super
• Antique

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!  Or a great holiday weekend if you don't celebrate it.  ^_^;  Mine went very well, all things considered.  First of all, the most important part: the stuff I got!

• A Nook Tablet!  (*insert AW-YEAH.gif here* XD)
• This hat. (I ( Read more... )

I got a Christmas card from misskalloway the other day, so thank you very much for that! :D

Speaking of Christmas cards, I plan on sending them out on Monday, or Tuesday at the very latest. It's definitely cutting it close, and for those who asked for one, you'll most likely receive them late (especially if you live outside the U.S.), but they will be coming ( Read more... )

First of all, a quick reminder for those of you who didn't catch it the first time: If you'd like a Christmas/holiday card from me, go here. Feel free to ask for one even if we haven't talked a lot. ;-)

Anyway, I figure I might as well finally get around to answering these questions:

I wasn't intending this to be my 500th post on LJ, but I guess this is good enough. ^_^

A brief rundown of stuff that's happened since I last wrote something here:

• The freak late October snowstorm that dumped a huge amount of snow in Connecticut and put at least 60% of the state without power. Thankfully we didn't lose power or cable this time, ( Read more... )

The mother and sister are here in town, the father should be coming up sometime tomorrow, I had Indian food tonight (tandoori shrimp FTW!), I got an A- in Social Movements and a B+ in everything else, I have an overall GPA of 3.57, I got a free autographed copy of Bill McKibben's Eaarth at the environmental studies department reception today (along ( Read more... )

First off, a warm welcome to archy_the_roach!  Glad to meet you, and if you have any questions about me don't be afraid to ask!  ;-)

Second, thank you so, so much for all the comments you left on the "You Are Beautiful" meme a few days ago.  You guys are absolutely wonderful, and I can't thank you enough for being so awesome.  ^_^;

Third, I've started using Tumblr ( Read more... )

So I managed to finish the entirety of Ender's Game in about eight hours. It was for my Politics of Virtual Realities class; I didn't have to have the whole thing read until Wednesday, but apparently I got so caught up in it that I just had to finish it as soon as I could. At least some of my work is getting finished ahead of time. XD Anyway, ( Read more... )
