Now that my writing class is done until whenever the next term is, I actually feel like writing stuff.
I was like this in college. The term would end and I would get all excited about reading the book I had simply pretended to read weeks before.
How do I have degrees? I don’t understand.

“I don’t understand people in this city. You’re all ignorant!...”
– Really drunk guy on the bus. He was talking to a teenager and then proceeded to lecture him on politics.

Fact - no one gets called “cracker” unless they’re the type of person to cry persecution over being called “cracker.”
Not only did he cry persecution, he wrote an angry/sad poem about it. I didn’t hear the whole thing because he only read about 20 seconds into it when the teacher just said “No....
I was “jokingly” called a misandrist today.
The person who said it is someone I wrote a bitchy post about that I have since deleted. Let’s just say that this fits with his character.
This was the white guy in my writing class who compared not being allowed to smoke indoors to racial segregation (and then defended that by saying “We’re all minorities in some...

Overheard on the Bus
Young woman: I should've died at least seven times. I've overdosed, I've been kidnapped, I've had guns pulled on me. God is watching over me and that's why I'm still here.
Young man: You're lucky.
Young woman: That shit ain't luck. My luck is fucked!

I think it’s mostly if you’ve used a gmail address to sign up for other accounts then they’ll automatically link them (i.e. my blog will become connected to my google+ and my youtube accounts because i used the same gmail address to sign up)
That I can deal with because I’m fairly good at...
I wasn’t freaking out about this Google privacy policy change until I saw something about how it’s linking our separate accounts. What? I’m confused. I understand that on their end it would take little detective work to figure out my other accounts but if I’ve never connected them how does this affect me?
Nothing I’ve read so far has explained this and I don’t...

I hate that I can’t make myself do things I actually want to do.
Oh, but I got a bingo on a triple-word score tile in Words With Friends, so I’m feeling like a bit of a badass right now.
I haven’t been sleeping well because of a horrible combination of drunk bus-stop people, a furry alarm clock that goes off between 2am and 4am, and random neighbor kerfuffles.
I managed to take a long nap today, but unfortunately it got in the way of me being productive.
I have to write a lot for my class but it’s hard because my brain is a lousy jerk. I’m going to watch the...

Sphenoid bones creep me the hell out
Every once in a while I remember that everyone has one of these scary demon-owl-moth things in their head and I shudder involuntarily.
Ethmoids creep me out, too, but not as much.

:o what season of SOA are you on?
I just started watching it a few weeks ago, but I was watching very slowly until today’s marathon. I’m on episode 10 of season one, but given the pace I’m watching it now, I should be done with these episodes on Netflix in the near future :D

How To Scare The Crap Out Of Me
Be my cell phone company.
Force me to change my password because it does not fit your new security requirements.
Wait a few days, long enough for me to forget that I was forced to change the password.
Send me a text message that says “Your password has been changed!” Give me a number to call if I didn’t make the change. The last change was days ago, so of course I’ll...

Why, thank you! As much as I can thank someone for directing me to a picture of Billy Crystal in blackface, that is.

Sons of Anarchy has many problematic elements, yet somehow (if my dashboard is any real indication) I believe it’s less problematic than this year’s Academy Awards.
I’m glad I didn’t watch, but mostly because I really hate awards shows.

I don’t know, I think that watching Sons of Anarchy is pretty productive.
If you think that’s productive, then you should be very impressed when I tell you that I did a load of laundry, changed sheets/made my bed, put away my laundry, made dinner, washed dishes, cleaned the litter box, took out...
I promise to do something productive after I watch my fourth episode of Sons of Anarchy in a row.
Hey, at least I have some kind of an attention span today.

I am self-conscious about how boring my internet presence has become, but I don’t have many current life events I can share or thoughts to express lately. I’m not sure what I’ve even been doing with myself, because (truth be told) I am behind on every TV show I watch. I’ve been reading the same book for a month. I’m barely writing for my class. I can only do things...

The last time I tried to speak the words “read the instructions,” I accidentally said “read the obstructions.” And sometimes, aren’t they one and the same thing?

I mean, if I were going to scream any lyrics, “Jingle Bells” would be it.
It’s especially funny because it’s someone with a very deep, gravelly voice.
Someone is screaming the lyrics to “Jingle Bells” outside my window.

So, I’m watching this horrible, horrible commercial that Strong4Life produced (do not watch unless you need a strong ipicac) because they’re a bunch of outrage junkies, and I notice that some of the images seem… out of place.
To figure out what was askew, I documented every single image used in the flashback sequence so we could review the story of Jimbo Fatty ...

When I have any sort of cold, I drink CONSTANTLY. I’m just always thirsty. My health may be questionable though.
Now that I think of it, when I have colds I basically sit around drinking caffeine-free tea all day because I get really thirsty and it feels good.
I was extremely thirsty all day yesterday and today...
Do you ever get excessively thirsty before an illness? This has happened to me once before, and it seems to be happening again. I just can’t seem to drink enough water. It interferes with my coffee habit. It’s also worrisome because it makes me freak out about diabetes.
Once I was on the bus with a lady who had “Let’s Get It On” as her ring tone. As if that weren’t amusing enough, some guy kept calling her every few minutes and they would just yell at each other until one of them would hang up.
People are funny.

Okay, on a positive note (I’m having an extremely bad day if you couldn’t tell):
I have $11 more in my checking account than I thought I did. I’ve been lazy about keeping track of money.
Tomorrow (er, today) I get to do something cool that I wouldn’t get to do if I weren’t totally poor. Of course I’ll feel guilty about it later, but it’s still a great...

I wish I could carry gifs in my pocket so that when my therapist asks me how I’m doing this week, I could just whip them out and be like:
because this pretty much sums it up.
I made a video of my cat chasing the skull toy, but Tumblr won’t let me upload it. I just wanted you all to know how utterly deprived you really are.

She really wants the scissors, don’t turn your back!
I don’t feel comfortable turning my back on her when she’s looking at me like that.
Though lately she had developed a really weird habit of standing on her hind legs to grab my butt. This cat is obsessed with butts.
