Considering the amount of effort Erin had to exert to drag me out of bed this morning, I was thinking this day would be pretty awful. However, that's turning out to not be the case. After a weekend of almost constant work, I'm finally not behind in my readings for class. Moreover, I'm feeling quite able to do what needs to be done today, which ( Read more... )

This week has been half misery and half very, very good. I managed to finish up my essay for philosophy in good time and it was only minimally soul-killing, though it didn't seem that way at the time. I've been really enjoying my job, mostly because it's a nice mix of busy and boring? I'm getting a good amount of my work done, and I'm finally ( Read more... )

I'm hardly a raving feminist but misogyny? Not cool. Really not fucking cool. And I've got a professor who seems to hate both atheists and women so I'm pretty screwed aren't I?

On a good note? My roommate is amazing.

I failed to mention that this weekend Rachel (eibheall) and I drove up to Remus, Michigan for a folk music festival. I’ve returned, no worse for wear and with an urge to repeat the experience, minus the pile of schoolwork I tackled while there ( Read more... )

Aside from the brain damage my mother undoubtedly gave me when she dropped the hutch of the desk we were moving on my head, I’m all moved in. I am also at home, currently, for one more day. Tomorrow is a family cookout and Kelli who dad thinks is his second daughter anyway is joining us. It’s going to be fun ( Read more... )

I always get the urge to post when I'm nearly cross-eyed from lack of sleep. I just had 48 hours of Kelli funtimes, watched Daredevil (which was bad but enjoyable), Across the Universe (which was a godawful waste of my life -- I'll elaborate on why a bit later), and The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum, a trilogy of ( Read more... )

I'm going to preface my writing about The Dark Knight with this: say all you like about Heath Ledger, but for me Aaron Eckhart stole the show.

( Anything else I might say beyond that will likely be a spoiler )

Saw Ben at Subway today for a total of about two minutes. It's odd, seeing someone you've had no contact with for about a year. Especially when you're seeing them in an employee/customer context. Still, it was nice to see him, and the brevity of our encounter was, to some extent, a good thing.

Watched some amount of Avatar with Elaine. The ( Read more... )

For anyone curious, I'll be leaving the country for three weeks as of today. I doubt I'll have access to the internet, and even if I do my primary means of internet communication will be via email. I know my pointless icon memes and inarticulate rants will be sorely missed.
