Fun with monster hands

These are the best things ever.

Thank you, Monster Hands, you are amazing. These guys came all the way from England to give me and my friend some giggles.

where IS the internet?

Just a quick post...I'm trying to finish this assignment tonight so I can go home and actually ENJOY the weekend. They're so short!
Today I got home from work and the internet was down. I need the internet for this assignment (heck I need the internet to even TURN IN this assignment!) and this is the day they decide to change providers...without telling us the internet will be gone. My room mate and I went to the library but they closed at midnight and I, being the kindhearted person I am, let her use my computer to write her paper while I frantically tried to finish the reading assignments. The library closed before I could really search any articles, so basically that was a bit of a pointless outing. And now here I am back at the apartment, and voila! The internet is BACK! I don't have to pack up and go to Ihop now!
This whole debacle made me think of a time in my undergrad when one of my favorite professors was talking about, oh I don't know what, but then he said "My daughter once asked me 'Dad, where is the internet?'" looking up as if expecting it to appear at any second, he replied "I don't know...." I wish I could explain how old-man-cute he was, it just makes everything he says so wonderful.
Off to read and write.

Celebrate small victories

I have so much to do still. I have an article analysis due a week from today (also my birthday!) and another one due this Wendesday, and before all that, I have one of those seemingly easy but actually rather time consuming discussion questions due by five on Monday. But you know what? I FINISHED AND TURNED IN my discussion question that was due today by midnight a full fifteen minutes ago. That's right, I turned something in early! And I'm going to celebrate by finding a coke. Or a Dr. Pepper. Because I really really want one.

Nothing like the Muppets on a sad evening.

Good morning!

Bit-o-honey and chai tea, a good morning.

I make myself get up and actually HAVE a morning on Tuesdays and Thursdays, even though I don't have to get on the bus until about 11:20.



I love Teddy Tedholm. I'm excited to see him on SYTYCD this season! I only saw the little blurb teaser they did one Thursday, but I hope he makes it further!

Oh, and also, I love Carol Burnett...

I'm going home for the weekend! I get to see my familia!

It's actually much louder than it appears

A twelve month lease? Why did I do a place that only does twelve month leases?

Crazy life...

Hey all, just a quick update before I get ready for bed (an hour past my bedtime!). Grad school's going alright, I have discovered that the bars are not for me (allergic to smoke and started falling asleep at midnight). Made friends with some people at church and that's good. All my textbooks are in, I think, and that's good. Finally got a mattress pad and my pictures came in (and are on the wall) and that's good. I just have a lot of studying to do so I know I'm ready for the week. And that's alright.

The moon was so cool last night. Look at the halo!
Oh, and this song is stuck in my head.
