When You Are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris
(A few things. So, it turns out that I am participating in Cannonball Read! Yay! Thanks, Nicole! Second, looks like it's time to bust out the "fauxblopomo" tag again because I'm a big fat failure. --K)After closing the back cover on this book, I sat ...
Newly Shorn
I don't know what makes getting a haircut so exciting for me. It's a fairly regular occurrence, since my hair grows quickly and somewhat off-kilter (I've been told it's because I only sleep on one side, stunting my hair's growth, but I don't know how...
"Where did you goooo? "
I received that as a comment from abz the other day and decided that I should probably answer that question.Well, the reason I fell off the face of the Earth is due to the deep-- and frankly, ridiculous-- emotional angst that I collapsed into once I ...
I Did It?
Well, we all know that I had to miss a day because of my internet outage, but, judging by this badge, "doing it" means that I had to post thirty times in thirty days. And I did. One day I posted twice. Count 'em. Thus, through thorough rationalizing,...
Things I Learned During NaBloPoMo
Save pictures on your hard drive; don't link.Shouting "Dear G-d, why isn't this month over?!?" does not make the month end faster.One day of the internet being gone can ruin a whole month of work.A one sentence post is perfectly acceptable when in th...
Blogs Are Fun... and International!
Geez, this month is almost over... Thank G-d.Tomorrow, I have to do a presentation for Computers and Writing. I'm thinking that I'm going to concentrate on blogs and the international realm. All the information I've found is rather interesting. For i...
A Loss of Innocence With a Spider Bite
Last night, I sat up thinking about a girl I had in my bunk during my first year as a camp counselor. She was what we at camp refer to as "awkward"-- quiet, prone to odd conversations when she did open her mouth, and habits rather different from a t...
The Jewiest Christmas Ever
I'm going to have the Jewiest Christmas ever.Some will cock their heads and ask, "Wait, wasn't the Jewiest Christmas ever the time when you had Chinese food and saw Munich in the theater?" No, that was the most depressing Christmas ever. This will be...
Fruit Fly Fever
I came back to my apartment and immediately became the proud owner of a flock of fruit flies. I'm not sure how they got here and I'm not sure why they stay, but this is a pet-free apartment complex, so they must go.I've set up fruit fly traps all ove...
Idiot Food
Ever eat something that you know you'll regret, but you scarf it down with gusto anyway? Ever find yourself curled up in a ball after eating said food, moaning in pain but smiling because it tasted so damn good?That, my friends, is what we call idiot...
I Read; Therefore, I Am
I'm going to confess a secret. A secret that will cement my nerd status for perhaps the next ten thousand years.I have a reading journal. That I keep on my own accord. That I am not forced to do by any class. Ever.It's not the type of journal where I...
Peace at Last
Though I sometimes wish that my family would just go away, I don't think that there is a better feeling than sitting with them on a small Virginian island, noshing on pizza, and watching "Hunt for Red October." Even my callous little brother sighs at...
Chevy Dreams
(Oh, wonderful, wonderful internet!)I don't know why I was thinking about this last night, but I spent time before I went to sleep thinking about a kid I knew in elementary school. My grade school experience was unique-- I spent third through fifth g...
Vacation, All I Ever Wanted
Vacation! Whoo!This is just my post if I can't find internet when I get to Chincoteague. My previous experiences have told me that the web is very scarce on the island.K....
FauxBloPoMo
So my internet went out yesterday and it was too cold and rainy to tramp over the library to use the wireless. Therefore, I guess I lose NaBloPoMo. It seems a little unfair that I have to wait a who other year until I can try again just because my in...
