New friends! and sheep

Just saw Lilah, Chelsea, and Charlotte off; they stayed an extra day to recuperate from Boston. We still did nothing that would require me being 22. Night one: several movies, asleep by 1am. Night two: more movies, asleep by 2am. Very nice and snuggly all around and besides, I got a STEPHEN KING pop-up book from Lilah! And drink recipes from Charlotte! And Chelsea gave me Eloise's advice on staying six forever. All in all, a grand Epiphany.

rhymester even showed up briefly; home for a funeral *hugshugshugs* Thanks for the Sherlock Holmes plaque! I looooooove it. Now why didn't I write my thesis on him? *whines* I don't wanna read my books anymore! Although in the world of literature, Tristram Shandy really isn't that bad. And well worth the effort. That will be part of today's task. After a walk. And some thank-you notes. 'Cause I'm a good little 22-year-old, who writes notes to thank their grandparents/aunts/uncles for the OODLES of Borders gift cards. Any suggestions, anyone? My only must-buy at the moment is Bach's Cello Suite. Although I might splurg and get another controller for my GameCube. Or a strategy guide for Zelda: Wind Waker (Secretly, I'm still 12 and love video games... huge dork, me).

Friended some new people (*waves if they friend back*). Also, uploaded and futzed aroudnd with my icons. Joy. And due to this wandering in the land of LJ, I bring you sheep, care of villainny. They're hysterical. And lovable. Much like The Little Prince.

Tomorrow I am off to Philly for a day of actual job interviews. Then back here to prepare for my interview at my old elementary school. *is nervous* *thinks about buying more comfortable shoes*

And.... chilly Sunday afternoon, here I come! Cheers!

Like ohmigod did you hear?

Apologies to all and sundry, but I felt like I had to share this:

Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston are separated!!!!

While this does not mean an end to the A-list couple, the news channels were all abuzz with the news that hit late on Friday. Is it because of the rumored romance between Brad and Angelina Jolie? Because Jen isn't ready to have a family yet? Because they were just too sickeningly perfect together?

Stay tuned.

*we will now return to our regularly scheduled intellingent ramble*

I knew they were both allegories ;o)

This? Is frickin' hysterical. And true. hownovel is a genius.

That is all. Hopefully this will be my last post today. *crosses fingers*

2004 (ish) Meme

Because I'm a moron and didn't actually have enough posts from 2004, I had to cheat and steal some from 2002. And yet, it all still makes a weird sort of sense:

Three cheers for a great time of year: summer vacation! Again, it's been a while since I wrote here. Caution: depressed storm drains…that, my friends, is a sign on the way down to Pennsylvania, for those who care. yes, i'm a dork. This'll be a marginally short one, seeing as I just got back from school and exhausted. Been at the mall all day, walking around and quasi-shopping. Howdy all, just letting you know I've movied my journaly-ness to Blogger. While this is not the beginning, it feels like one. “I thought I’d find you here.” I won't even try to summarize everything that has happened between my last entry and this one. I wrote my thesis proposal. To all: Please don't ride your bicycles in the subway tunnel.

The quote is from a fic I wrote for writing community. I quite enjoyed it at the time. And, with hindsight, it seems very Milliways A/C. Thus, the fic:
