it's good to know that the acoustics have lived up to my expectations
... FINALS! except, not really, because my big psych theories paper was due last weekend and i finished my biostats final yesterday morning. (me: can i tell you something that's probably going to make you annoyed? keri: yes? me: i'm mad that my biostats final was too easy. keri: you are such a fucking wretch.) so now i get a week off, one of the ( Read more... ) -
no, see, everything will be fine, you'll just, you know, go in the crawl space, and--
a. i was going to write a post about how i have been trapped in my office writing my social network model paper for the better part of the last three days, but then i was like, hey, you can just link to these posts, they are more than four (!!!!!) years old but say basically the exact same thing, with the addition of some really not-at-all thinly ( Read more... ) -
you don't like me, you really don't like me!
when n.e.r.d. was promoting fly or die, they did a concert that was broadcast on mtv uk. justin timberlake was on stage for several songs, and so someone from popslash (the holy sainted grail of fandoms for people who love source material) ripped it and put up and .avi, but there was also this part where pharrell sang the first couple lines of " ( Read more... ) -
what to do when you are covering the front desk
a. i find the alatriste teaser endlessly hilarious. it is obstensively a non-speaking trailer -- the only audible human noise is viggo's "let us now go nobly into certain death!" noise, which is sort of a, you know, "AAAAAAARGHAAAAH!" kind of sound. it is instantly recognizable in the trailer from all the appearances that it made in the three lotr ( Read more... ) -
the phone number on the flyer is my drill, and it's time i forgot the rules and made a hole or two
a. cspan was the one to first point it out, but every time i walk past rodney's used bookstore on beacon street near coolidge corner, my mind drifts toward an AU where rodney mckay is an eccentric used book shop owner. in this universe, the government wanted to conceal the existence of the stargates and keep them inaccessible, so all of rodney's ( Read more... ) -
i will cut you like a fish, i will put you in the ground. i grew up on the streets of sydney!
on wednesday night, the first thing the pm said when she walked in the door was, "i know i'm home when the emo boys who live downstairs are listening to tegan and sara and the lesbian upstairs is listening to eminem ( Read more... ) -
alright, okay, guess it's better to turn this way
one of my favorite things about the head-over-heels flush of love for a new fandom is that EVERYTHING reminds you of your new obsession. which is to say: one of my co-workers, for reasons that are beyond my understanding, refers to his boyfriend exclusively as the colonel, and it makes me laugh every time i think about it. you know. just sayin ( Read more... ) -
you're high, you're holding a knife, you're trying to open a package of baked goods
status of "...FINALS!" is: mostly good. my plan was to finish 7 slides monday night, 7 tuesday night and 6 wednesday night and now it's tuesday night + some change and i've finished 15 slides. praise allah ( Read more... ) -
-- and darkens the hallway with her black robes galore
you know that part at the beginning of chapter twenty-six of wizard people, dear reader where brad neeley just shouts "... FINALS!" (the courtyard looks like an anthill. our three stroll confidently, but harry seems to be nursing a head that dealt with one too many cognacs.) all this weekend, i have wretching around, randomly muttering, "...FINALS ( Read more... )
