  1. "Kissing" is a really funny-looking word. If you don't believe me, go look at it in print (here, for example -- this is what I do all day now, folks, is maintain and add content to this website). See? Funny-looking.
  2. Gucci hid under my bed this morning when I tried to put her back in her kennel. She is so bad. I took her out before I went to ( Read more... )

Driving in Minneapolis is torture snouches January 30 2006, 16:54:42 UTC
I've never been able to navigate there without getting lost. Plus I've never before been in a city where you could get off the freeway, but not get back on at the same spot. Spent an hour one evening just trying to find where I could get back on again.

Used to live in Wausau, WI (otherwise known as the worst 18 months of my life) and we'd come to Minneapolis for some real food, real stores, and kick ass ribs (Famous Dave's). Loved the city except for trying to navagate around it.

It's terrible, isn't it? Just horrifying -- there's a street in downtown Minneapolis that just...goes over the river, and dumps you on the freeway, but it doesn't tell you it's dumping you on the freeway, and by the time it does tell you, you're halfway to St. Paul.

And we live right next to the 35-94-Highway 55 interchange, which is absolute murder because you're right -- you get off somewhere and you really just can't be sure that you'll ever be able to get on. EVER AGAIN. I got lost for an hour one day too, just a few months ago, and I've been driving here for three years now!

Wausau's kind of a ways out there -- how often did you come into town?

I think we went a few times a year. It seems like just about every weekend we were driving somewhere, either Chicago, Minneapolis, Door County, whatever. Anything to get the hell out of Wausau.

1. i spent about 20 minutes reading their articles. it was hilarious.

2. tell gucci that if she doesn't obey, i will not lavish her with attention next time i see her. and she will be sad.

3. i was driving with brian to get out of minnie-a- pole-is(:) after midwest lindy fest at night and it seriously took us about 45 minutes to find the proper entrance ramp to get going in the right direction to get out of the city. because he was driving too fast when we passed it up. confusing city. won't let you go.

4. oh my god I'm gonna get to see you on Friday! squee like no other:)

5. i am skipping spanish class right now. don't really have a reason to, just didn't want to go. so i'm not.

HI HELLO HI wheresmytower January 31 2006, 01:47:56 UTC
1. WHERE'S MY GODDAMN FRIDAY? SHOULD BE HERE ALREADY, YOU WHORE.

2. Saw Mike Heller again today, and guess wot? It's his birthday. He's 22. I told him about you coming down and said if we were doing anything terribly fun and exciting we might let him know about it on facebook and stuff. Wot say you?

2b. He had a pencil with a rubber Jesus on the end. Can't decide whether this is awful or rilly cool.

3. Know wot's good? It's no chantico, but it's good. Chocolate mint truffle hot chocolate. Verreh good.

4. Know wot else is funny looking, wordwise? 'Kissinger.' Also, 'wuthering.'

5. Conversely, this morning I saw a shop called "Martinizing" and thought, "Ooh, that's a cool name." But then I tried pronouncing it in my head in a way that would convey it's coolness status, and you know wot? No matter WOT you do, it sounds stupid. Rillyrilly stupid. I've decided that, as of today, I hate names that look good on paper but sound stupid. Like Martinizing and Ephialtes and Walden. Just, no.

*fridays*

O rly? I think I have him friended on facebook, yis. Have you talked to Dana? Mayhap he could come drinking with us Friday?

WE CAN GO DRINKING. I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW COOL THIS IS. SHELBY AND I PICKED UP CORONA ON THE WAY BACK FROM CLASS MONDAY NIGHT BECAUSE WE WANTED BEER, AND WE COULD, SO WE DID. IT TOOK A WHILE TO SINK IN, BUT NOW? YEAH, IT'S NICE TO BE 21.

You know what else isn't cool about Martinizing? It's a fucking dry-cleaning company. How do you pronounce Ephialtes? Sounds cool to me.

Nope. No fridaying without me. *glare*

Dana said she's coming on Friday, but will likely see us int he afternoon and then go dancing, so yes, DRINKING. SO RIDICULOUSLY FANTASTIC. MMMMMM. THAT IS ALL, REALLY. IF BY 'ALL' YOU MEAN 'ROCK THE FUCK ON', AND I DO.

Sheesk. *outlaws it* Eff-ee-all-tees. The cool part is that it now means 'nightmare.' But, anyway, yes. "Wulfstan" and "Froda" much better.
