So on Monday, my brother Jon arrived at William & Mary, the plan being for him to hang out with me and his friend Andy (a freshman there), then to spend the night in Andy's room before driving Andy and me home after my Tuesday-morning exam ( Read more... )

I've been having very odd dreams lately. Most of them aren't bad or good, just weird ( Read more... )

Thanksgiving was great! We had thirteen people: Bill, Noelle, and Justin Shear (I scorn your proper semicolon use, Becky!); Bill, Katie, and Cooper Anderson; Mary Prevo and Jim and Lucas Munson; and Momdad, Jon, and I. We had seven pies. :) And we had our Mad Lib, and everything was awesome ( Read more... )

So, over the past few days, I rewatched the whole series of "Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged" cartoons. I saw the last ones right before going to bed, and I thought it would sure be nice to have more of those happy sunshine-and-kittens Bakura dreams, seeing as I'm all sick and everything. And what did I get? Kaiba dreams. Evil Kaiba dreams. And my lungs ( Read more... )

One ( Read more... )

Everybody, check out www.freerice.com - Becky showed it to me, and it's awesome! It's an addictive vocabulary game, and when you score points, they donate rice to hungry people ( Read more... )

I dreamed that I went to the Career Center. Or possible the Charles Center, where I keep having to go lately for my Fulbright stuff, but it's basically the Career Center only for scholarships, so quite similar. Anyway, the spirit of Jane Austen was working there as a professional muse. Since I'd evidently been there and helped her out before, ( Read more... )

I dreamed that I was fighting in the war in Iraq, only we were using dartguns. Also, Bakura was there ( Read more... )

The alarm this morning woke me up in the middle of a very strange dream. My brother Jon and I were starring in a TV show which I can only describe as a cross between "Angel" and "Malcolm in the Middle". It was also sort of our life. The dream started with me feeding chocolate cereal to a bird in a bird cage, but then, there was time travel, ( Read more... )
