things that are never as good as the idea of it is

let’s never again discuss the fact that i missed yesterday’s post.

Lots of exciting things are happening!

To other people in my life.

My mommy just got a new car! (I drove it today. I think he and I have a real connection. We may run off together.)

Melanie found a prom dress. (She got it in, uh, “Pool.” Which is a dumb name for a fabric color.)

Abbey made her grad school decision – Bowling Green State U, (AND she was on Good Morning America!!)

Matt’s birthday is on Saturday. And I can say with confidence that he’s going to get some pretty cool prezzies.

(Cause I bought them. For him. )

Oh, me?

I’ve been trolling hedgehog owner/breeder/hobbyist message board forums. And reading Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman series whole volumes at a time. And spending several consecutive hours blowing through the archives of webcomics. Oh and also there’s class and papers and general collegestudentry.

Dang, my hobbies are iffy. I’m turning into a Real Weirdo. I blame Matt.

Sometimes I watch YouTube videos and make “that’s what she said” jokes with my housemates. I sure will miss those girls when I leave.

There was this one time I left the house to go visit Lindsay at Rowan, and let me tell you, I was so overwhelmed by the activity I had to take a day off to recover.

So when I say I’m living vicariously through others and I’m patiently waiting for something to begin, you can rest totally assured that I tell no lies.

Hey, real life! Hurry up and get here!

What I’m All About

These days, at least:

The Joss Whedon Trifecta Of Amazing – Firefly (ohhh, Firefly), Buffy, Dr. Horrible.

Greek-style yogurt with strawberries. Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman. The Roches (it gets really good around the 1:10 mark).

Questionable Content, xkcd, Basic Instructions, Cyanide and Happiness.

Sleeping late. Honey Nut Cheerios. Dreaming about a vacation in the Philippines. ”Norwegian Wood” by the Beatles. Rye toast.

Signing into my boyfriend’s Facebook account and stalking random people he went to high school with (I realize this makes me a huge creeper.)

Career crisis. Papers, papers, papers.

Papers, papers, papers.

You?
