juniejuniejune: i feel like i'm waiting for new year'sjuniejuniejune: where everybody goes HAPPY NEW YEAR'S!juniejuniejune: except more like... .. i dunno what you would sayWhat would you say?This was my kind of "to do" list for today's Blogathon that I had posted on my first entry at the start of the 'thon.I'm going to try and teach myself Swedish.Hey... never said I had to succeed in teaching

Here are links to all the sites that I monitored today.# :: Queen of Everything :: bow, scrape, repeat...# A Tale of 2 WAHMs# bRight & Early# DreamTeam - Blogathon 2005 - Blogging for Doctors Without Borders# hello, lovely# Journal of a Fallen Angel# The Crash# The Red RoomI can't wait to sleep... the only bummer is that I probably won't get to sleep very long. I'll wake up around noon because

2005-08-07T05:08:00.000-07:00

My best record on Nanaca Crash is 2330.26m... can you beat it before Blogathon's over?

2005-08-07T04:58:00.000-07:00

I'm playing "Coloring Fun!" at Toddler Town. There's a print option and I'm tempted to print some of these out... they're cute!Everybody who is still here, alive, and blogging... keep it up! I know we can all stick it out to the end! Only two more blogs to go!Now I'm going to play some Nanaca Crash once it loads up on my slow dialup connection.Aren't you excited it's almost over?

2005-08-07T04:28:00.000-07:00

I'm playing a word association game with one of the other Yellow Darters. ^_^ (And yes, this is all I'm posting this time around.)juniejuniejune: orangesnyyjetess: peeljuniejuniejune: skinnyyjetess: roughjuniejuniejune: ruff!nyyjetess: doggie!!juniejuniejune: kitty :Pnyyjetess: meowjuniejuniejune: mixnyyjetess: foodjuniejuniejune: asparagusnyyjetess: ewwjuniejuniejune: gross!nyyjetess:

2005-08-07T03:55:00.000-07:00

I've resorted to watching porn to keep me awake. -_-;;Why must all these girls ALWAYS breathe in through their mouth through their teeth? It's the most annoying sound!

2005-08-07T03:27:00.000-07:00

One of the sites I'm still reading this late is So You Want to Marry a Racecar Driver. Four stories connected into one.My right shoulder and side of my neck is TENSE. If I poke it it's about rock hard. I'm still wishing DisconnectedBlog the best of luck on his way back home from wardriving.My mum just gave me a shoulder massage... it felt good.

2005-08-07T02:29:00.000-07:00

These are my omnipresent Blankie and Teddy. They are never separated, or else.

2005-08-07T02:27:00.000-07:00

Did two rows and now my right hand is hurting from cramping up... Damn carpal tunnel!Anybody else thing that the last post is going to be anticlimactic as hell? I don't mind, as long as I get to fucking sleep.Now I don't know what to do... I need to rest my wrist.

2005-08-07T02:00:00.000-07:00

I put away B&W and now I'm knitting... I'm almost done with one row, but now there's a terrible knot in my yarn and I'm trying to fix it. *frowns* It's not working very well though, especially since I've been up since 5:30AM.Ugh, I'll just keep knitting with the knot.. what do I care? It's for me anyway.

2005-08-07T01:23:00.000-07:00

I'm still not quite through the tutorial... I've never liked moving around in Black and White, but I guess once I get used to it it'll be a wonderful experience!Whenever I'm faced with the choice of doing "good things" vs. "bad things" I always feel bad and do the good things... that's just my nature, even if it is a video game... is that weird?

2005-08-07T01:03:00.000-07:00

My memory's starting to fade. I started freaking out because I couldn't remember what I was doing and I SWORE I had been doing something... then I remembered and everything was okay again...Concentrating's really hard right now, but I think I'm gonna pop in Black and White and see how well I do in that game.

2005-08-07T00:34:00.000-07:00

Before I refilled my cup with ice tea... I was like this:Then I finally did.And I looked like this:Can you tell I'm getting tired of cropping images?(Also, this no way entails that I endorse Coca Cola products in anyway. We just have the cups.)

2005-08-07T00:00:00.000-07:00

I have finally succeeded in creating a grilled cheese sandwich masterpiece!A minute ago my mom caught another scorpion.EDITAnd sorry for worrying you guys earlier... I was just being melodramatic. -_-;;GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH, EMPOWER ME WITH YOUR STRENGTH!

2005-08-06T23:47:00.000-07:00

I'm... dead...

2005-08-06T23:25:00.000-07:00

I'm yet again playing Kingdom of Loathing. It seems like such a long time ago that I started blogging... Good luck for the rest of the night! It's almost over... almost... over... *eyes slowly close*

2005-08-06T22:57:00.000-07:00

I'm only 5 hours into this game. I just played for about an hour, and now my attention span is done.I think the rest of the night is just going to be random posts just to keep with the quota... I'm starting to get tired, and I dunno if I can keep up with interesting links and stories.

2005-08-06T22:41:00.000-07:00

I hate it when I use up my items to heal my party, and then the next screen over it ends up there's a save point where I can heal everybody anyway! GRR!

2005-08-06T22:27:00.000-07:00

Have I mentioned I despise the camera angles in this darned game? I absolutely love the battle system but hate the camera angle... I can barely see ahead of me!My eyes are starting to get a little droopier... and they hurt a little. Uh oh... fatigue's setting in!

2005-08-06T21:55:00.000-07:00

2005-08-06T21:33:00.000-07:00

BAH! I just got disconnected for the second time just now... it better not happen again. I'll probably be too tired to deal with it.This lovely lady gave me links and links and links to yarn stores! Perhaps after I finish these legwarmers I'll make some socks? I gave up on the project I was talking about earlier... I hadn't even started it yet either. :P I'm going to play some Dance Dance

2005-08-06T21:00:00.000-07:00

Eating an ice cream sandwich is yummy. I'm going to get started on another sewing project... smaller this time. XD

2005-08-06T20:30:00.000-07:00

Have any of you guys heard of National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo for short?It happens every month during November, and writers all over try to write 50,000 words in the span of 30 days. I've participated twice, tried again a 3rd time last year but couldn't because of time constraints my senior year... I hope I'll be able to participate again this coming year, but alas, my very first

2005-08-06T20:00:00.000-07:00

AAHH! Time keeps passing by faster and faster! Why can't I keep track?I need to beg someone to go on a snack food and caffeine drink run for me!I decided that after all this is over, I'm going to match every dollar sponsored to me to donate myself also... so right now we have a total of $90 going to HRC... anybody want to up the ante for me?

2005-08-06T19:36:00.000-07:00

I took a quick shower, and have been going through my monitee's blogs to send some words of encouragement. My turban:

2005-08-06T18:59:00.000-07:00

The dog is telling me something... what could it be? :PI just fought my first enemy, which also happens to be the cutest thing alive:Back to playing now.

2005-08-06T18:33:00.000-07:00

There's something very cleansing about eating meals with rice. After a few bites of whatever the entree, the rice comes in to cleanse the palate, a nice refreshment before more tastes invade your mouth... It's like a rinse and repeat cycle, only with food! Good food!I've decided against Grandia II and Black and White... I'm going to start EARTHBOUND instead! If you ever get the chance, you

2005-08-06T17:56:00.000-07:00

^_^ I'm still playing KoL... I'll keep going until I run out of adventure points... After that I think I'm going to play some Grandia II... I'll do what she is and maybe try and take some okay pictures of the game to spice up these entries.Man, I miss getting the one or two comments like I got at the beginning of Blogathon. That stuff doesn't really matter as long as I stay awake, but if we

2005-08-06T17:25:00.000-07:00

I have two comics that I regularly read called Diesel Sweeties and Wigu. I love these guys so much.There's also another comic that I recently came across called The Order of the Stick. If any of you guys are D&D junkies, or at least can recognize D&D references, you should check it out. It's updated MWF. I'm running out of things to say. I've just been playing KoL and waiting for dinner to

2005-08-06T16:53:00.000-07:00

I've forgotten if I've already posted about the Kingdom of Loathing or not. If not, here is a post about Kingdom of Loathing. I'm going to post this early because I want to make a grilled cheese sandwich. Soon after that, I'm going to continue playing KoL and then turn on my PS2 for some good ol' Grandia II!EDITNix the grilled cheese sandwich. We don't have butter. :-( I'll just microwave a

2005-08-06T16:28:00.000-07:00

My GOD it's hot! Way too hot!Carrie is short of her $100 goal... wanna help out by donating a few bucks?Here is a link denouncing denouncers of video games.That shirt was my big project for the day... now I'm at a loss of things to do besides play video games.If anybody's still reading, give me a suggestion. XD

2005-08-06T15:57:00.000-07:00

This is a good as time as any to say... please sponsor me.This year I'm blogging for the Human Rights Campaign, an organization that targets the government to change the way people "deal with" gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people. HRC tries to prevent anti-GLBT legislation from passing. There are a number of people blogging for some type of GLBT organization... so even if it's not me,

2005-08-06T15:39:00.000-07:00

A bit late, but everything's finished except for the straps! Rejoice! Now it's time for a new project. ^_^This is the stitching to attach the boob covers!:The front! I felt like a dork holding the shirt up because of the lack of straps.And the back, which is not quite as exciting as the rest of the shirt:

2005-08-06T15:01:00.000-07:00

I just hemmed the bottom edge of my shirt with a zigzag stitch... As I went along though, I realized I put the wrong color on the wrong side. I don' thave enough bobbins to make a green threaded one, so I just used a bobbin with white thread on the bottom... but I used the white on the outside! But now it's a contrast color, so I guess it's okay... I sewed kind of everywhere though... oh well!

2005-08-06T14:30:00.000-07:00

I've been taking in the camisole top tube part so it fits better near the top, right under my boobs.Also, I forgot something in the tutorial! You have to hem the bottom and the back part of the top! So after you do everything else, you gotta hem. :PSorry this is short... I didn't have that much prep on this one.

2005-08-06T13:55:00.000-07:00

I'm angry. I was supposed to quit work at the end of July. However, our manager had to go into the hospital abruptly, and we're shorthanded, especially since another lady has been on medical leave/vacation for awhile also. I didn't mind working for another week, but now I'm going to be working through the end of August, and I'm not going to have enough rest time before I move into my dorm in

2005-08-06T13:27:00.000-07:00

Finally! Here's the tutorial... I'm sorry it's actually the crappiest tutorial ever in the world... but what are you going to do? You will need at least 2/3 of a yard (or maybe less if you make it way short)... the longer you want the tube part of the shirt, the more yardage you'll need. You'll also need something for the straps, whatever you decide that may be.The layout:(Remember all your

2005-08-06T13:00:00.000-07:00

Time keeps flying by! I have the tutorial uploaded on my computer and I'm editing it... but for now, here's a website about BDSM. She's afraid that nobody's reading her website, but I say they may just be too scared to comment. It's a Q&A/mythbuster format about BDSM, to the people who have no idea what it really entails.Anybody know anything about the GIMP? I don't use it much, and I've been

2005-08-06T12:27:00.000-07:00

I got what I needed with the human interaction! Right now I'm in the IRC chat and an AIM chatroom. If you want to join the AIM one, IM me at juniejuniejune and I'll invite you in!I'm eating reheated shrimp fried rice. (What is it with all the shrimp today?!)I'm sorry my posts are not really interesting right now. I'll get back to my projects soon.... but for now, here's a picture of me I took

2005-08-06T11:59:00.000-07:00

Oh shoot! I forgot I had to post. I'm just going to reiterate, since all of you already have said so, and I think I may have too... these half hours go by WAY TOO FAST! I haven't even gone around to doing any of the stuff I just said I would. :P

2005-08-06T11:34:00.000-07:00

I need to wait until the batteries are recharged to post my (awful-looking) camisole top tutorial. Apparently we don't have an AC adaptor for my dad's digital camera. I want some companionship on AIM. :-( I tried downloading Y! Messenger earlier but the download froze... if I tried again, would more people be able to talk to me?Aww, I like getting plugged! Thanks Carrie! I'm glad my posts

2005-08-06T10:58:00.000-07:00

Another interest of mine is zines. I run a zine distro called HELP ME distro. A zine is kind of like a magazine, only not quite as mass-produced. They can be personal... kind of like a diary (though usually more interesting than "Today I went to Jack in the Box..."), or political, or crafty, or fictional. A distro is short for "distribution". So if you run a zine distro you distribute and

2005-08-06T10:28:00.000-07:00

I'm still trying to wake up I think. I drank a mug of tea. Man, I've started on a picture taking craze. *snickers* All you moms out there are going to be aghast at the state of my room. I haven't even made my bed yet! (Who am I kidding? I never make my bed.)Next post, I'll have something more substance-filled... maybe.To Carrie: I'm so glad to know that there are more gamer/knitter nerds

2005-08-06T09:57:00.000-07:00

It seems I am absolutely NO HELP in solving riddles. Someone help! We don't want Gillian to succeed. I'm terrible at riddles. Maybe you're a bit better? o.o;And now, here are pictures of my knitting project:Does it look like a legwarmer yet? XDThis is the packaging for the double pointed needles I'm using. I like bamboo needles. The thing I hate about the aluminum ones, and this only gets

2005-08-06T09:32:00.000-07:00

My grandma endeavoured and has created for me shrimp po-po! It's a crepe-type thing... except it didn't work out so well and in fact, just kind of turned into tempura. I'm eating it with tonkatsu sauce right now... which is actually making me crave some pork tonkatsu!But I think later on I'll make some eggs, as suggested by my vegetarian monitor. ^_^ I always end up making eggs late at

2005-08-06T09:04:00.000-07:00

This idea is so neat. They're driving around finding wireless networks they can log on to blog. And this person is playing Xenosaga II. Nice to know another gamer is around blogging today! Perhaps I'll pop in my Grandia II into my PS2 and play.This is the camisole top I've been working on. The bottom part is a tube out of green t-shirt knit, and right over the front part is a patterned

2005-08-06T08:29:00.000-07:00

I think I've given up on Swedish for now. Sorry Carrie. -_-;My mind's a bit hazy since I'm not used to getting less than 8 hours of sleep. I'm considering making breakfast, but I don't know if I should make eggs or pancakes or bacon or what! Maybe I'll just ask my mommy to make something for me. :-) Aahh, the advantages of still living at home.Maybe I'll start a story today too. :P

2005-08-06T07:55:00.000-07:00

One of the blogs I've sponsored is this one:http://octobuary.com/clay/I got to create a character and now it's in the story. It's really exciting.I'm not getting very far in this Swedish-learning... I haven't even gotten to the first dialogue. I think my brain's too floaty right now to even comprehend and remember the pronunciation... I'll figure it out with all the words, I guess!Anybody

2005-08-06T07:29:00.000-07:00

WHOA! Time goes by quickly when they're in 1/2 hour chunks, don't they?I just wanted to let you know that this lady is just sooo helpful. I love her for telling me about useful extensions for my browser of choice: Firefox!I'm starting to get hungry. Perhaps breakfast is in order.

2005-08-06T07:00:00.000-07:00

I have just popped in the first Swedish CD. The lady has a British accent.I'm working on pronunciation right now. Did you know that the Swedish alphabet has 29 letters?

2005-08-06T06:29:00.000-07:00

This second post is also not very interesting because I've been doing monitor duties.This is one of the Blogs I'm definitely looking forward to reading: http://www.goodbye.nu/blogathon/I'm wrapped up in my Blankie, with my Teddy in my hand. The sun is starting to come up. This is nice.

2005-08-06T06:00:00.000-07:00

MAN it's nice, bright, and early! It's also freezing ass cold.In retrospect, I should have gone to bed a lot earlier. I don't think 6 1/2 hours are gonna cut it, do you?I have nothing of interest to post yet.I have a few things I'm going to be doing today, along with the random snack and caffeine runs and various attempts to stay awake:I'm going to try and teach myself Swedish. I have a CD and

2005-08-01T23:33:00.000-07:00

I'm slated to start my period the day of Blogathon. Oh man, squishy goodness. Perhaps in celebration I'll also post links related to anything menstrual, and maybe make one of my projects to make more menstrual cloth pads. Yes!

2005-07-28T10:43:00.000-07:00

I'm excited to see this blog during the Blogathon: http://www.negative-g.com/mental_rose/She's going to be playing World of Warcraft for 24 hours and posting updates and screenshots.

2005-07-21T10:14:00.000-07:00

I am trying to think up something clever to do with this year's Blogathon. Yes, I know, thinking up something clever doesn't mean I'll actually go through with it for the whooooole 24 hours, but it's still a nice little sub-goal, yeah?I'm interested in languages and video games lately. My French is not good enough to actually POST in French. It'd be awesome practice though, if I could...

2005-07-20T11:17:00.000-07:00

I'm just tweaking the descriptions of this blog a little for the Blogathon 2005! Yay.Wow... two years ago I was more or less happily together with Rus. I'm not anymore.See you guys all for Blogathon 2005!

2003-07-27T18:25:00.000-07:00

So in the end I only got about 7 hours of sleep... and then I had to drive Rus home.... I hope most of you guys got the sleep you deserved and needed. -_-;; I'll probably be sleeping like a crazy dog tonight though, to make up for the lack of sleep last night. Shh! I'm sleeping! I'm a proud survivor of Blogathon 2003.

2003-07-27T05:58:00.000-07:00

The Longest Day: Blogathon 2003 Archives He used the word "penultimate" in his penultimate post. Yay for vocab. Everything's falling into place now, and soon we'll all be snoozing in our respective beds. It's a wonderful, wonderful thing, beds... Rus noted that it doesn't really seem like that we just stayed up for 24 hours... It's like everything that happened was about a few days ago or

2003-07-27T05:27:00.000-07:00

THIS IS THE PENULTIMATE ENTRY BEFORE THE ULTIMATE 6AM ENDING! Damn. The last 3 hours have gone by faster than I thought it would have. It's now just about soon to be 5:30... and then... soon it'll be 6 o'clock, and what will you know, but I'll be asleep in a nice, comfortable, warm bed with my lovah, and I'll be safe, and warm, and with my lovah. It's wonderful, indeed. This Blogathon has

2003-07-27T04:49:00.000-07:00

I took a little nap. Meh. It seems like such a long time ago when I first posted for Blogathon 2003... oh my. It feels like 3 whole days has passed and I'm just blogging late night again. Ahh, Rus and I are paranoid non-sleepers together. Wow, you can blog with your cell phone. http://www.textamerica.com/ People come up with the silliest things. Not that blogging through your cell phone

2003-07-27T04:25:00.000-07:00

2003-07-27T03:28:00.000-07:00

YAY! No more drops tonight 'cause everybody's tired and making mistakes! I'm getting paranoid that the house is going to kill me and that Rus got possessed by some evil thing. I love him though. I'm just scared... He's acting pretty shady to me... and I have to sleep next to him. AAHH!!!!!! SAVE ME. If I don't post a followup thing tomorrow, you all know something tragic happened to me,

2003-07-27T02:58:00.000-07:00

I just remembered I didn't do my daily amount of ab workout! AGH! ROCK ON! After this only 3 more hours... that's 6 posts. Wow! This day's been going by so fast... I'd like to thank my friends Christy and Rus for being there for me during the day... so I wouldn't be stuck in front of the computer ALL the time. Instead I was just there most of the time. :P haha. I got to drive Christy's

It just took me 10 minutes to rescrew a light bulb in. Now my hand smells like LIGHTBULB CRAP. And I had to catch another spider. Yeah, yeah, spider, what?!

2003-07-27T01:55:00.000-07:00

"JUuuuuunneee... there's a really big spider on the floor. i tried to put it outside but it came back and mendhi's looking at it!" my boyfriend's so cute when he's tired. ahh... it's reached that point when it's been 20 hours and i start writing in NONCAPOTALS! YAY! and I meant "noncapitals" and "yah!" So, uh, excuse me. I even went so far as to UNSUBSCRIBE myself from the Blogathon mailing

2003-07-27T01:22:00.000-07:00

*hits herself in the forehead* I COULD HAVE WORKED ON THE REWRITE OF MY STORY DURING BLOGATHON! I just thought of that... how dumb could I have been to forget that? It's like my summer to-do list to finish it by the end of summer. Ah, well. It probably wouldn't have worked out anyway with people over... and it's too late 'cause even if I did work on it, I'd have to rewrite what I wrote just

Red Bull is gross. It was okay at first but then it got gross. So I tried taking shots of it, just because I'm.. uh... "cool" like that. Uhh.. yeah. Right. There was talk of us making cookies again. I still want to. Sigh... Rus gets weird when he's dead tired and caffeinated with one and 1/4 of Red Bull. o.O; Caffeine doesn't do much to me anymore. Too immune. 5 more hours... I'm

My boyfriend has grown VERY attached to my Teddy and Blankie. I never thought it was possible. But it is. Aww. They're so cute together. I'm kinda getting jealous. I feel sleepy. Rus looks like he's going to pass out any second, the poor kid. I wish I could convince him to nap. He needs it. But if he naps now he might just fall asleep for the rest of the time. o.O;; Ah well.

VS. Dobbs This guy is a great writer. I found out about him during last year's blogathon, when he was still the infamous Victory Shag guy... and he wrote a fictitious story, the main character being a woman. It was a great one, and I joined his mailing list ever since then... I was so excited when he came back, and when he told us he was doing Blogathon... and hey! I get to be his monitor

*sigh* I think the blog is just going to be random babbling of my status and such. I mean, there's nothing wrong with just babbling about stuff, but it's a little less interesting. Rus bought two red bulls. How is that going to help? o.O;; Then again, last year I lived off iced tea the whole time. And some Riesen, I believe, which I have this year too. And this year I have Cup Noodles. I

50 Reasons Not To Pull An Allnighter Right now I'm in the stage where I just plug random websites. In the romantic adventures of the night... Rus and I got into a ticklefight. Mwah! I used my flexible legs to beat him. Haha. I STILLBEAT YOU! :P

Dirty Whore Diary Ahh, openness! It's great. Sorry, the middle of the night always gets me, when all my posts are really nothing important.

Aren't we cute? We've all got our groove on! *sings* Someone suggest a song for me to karaoke to, damnit. I'm bored like a whippersnapper.

No Knife is one of my favorite local bands, along with Counterfit. So if you're into finding out about new music, check them out. The San Diego county music scene is, I think, one of the coolest and best music scenes out there. Don't ask so interested. I'm not so interesting... Who here likes SKA?!?! I think I might have to do a karaoke sometime soon.

The word "burnout" comes to mind... I'm already tired and I'm losing motivation... but I gotta keep going... and I need to keep track of all the monitees too.

The Alkaline Trio and Hot Water Music split is one of my favorite CDs... just because it moves from the smooth voice of Matt Skiba to this rough voice of the lead singer of Hot Water Music (unfortunately, I can't recall the name)... and it's a contrast, in that way. I like it a lot. My two favorite songs on the split? "Queen of Pain" by Alkaline Trio, and "Russian Roulette" by Hot Water Music.

Sadly, Christy left, but leaves Rus and me some alone time. Mwah... and the defragmenting went well... Even if it didn't really "solve the problem" (I think it solved itself, actually), it is always nice to defragment your disk every so often, yeah? :P I'm just screwing all the ideas right now.... I'll think up something more creative later I suppose. And I know I say it every time, but

2003-07-26T18:24:00.000-07:00

I am having serious problems with my computer... so I'm posting this earlier, and I'm going to defragment and do all sorts of cleaning up and hope everything works out... I burned a CD for Christy and since then everything's been fucked... so uh, excuse me. i'll try and get back into the flow (and even moreso than I have been for the past few hours, sorry), and uhh... yeah. Gah. Wish me luck

We just ate dinner... shrimp fried rice and egg soup. ("Bleh, bleh, bleh!") Christy and I tried making Orange Julius with rice milk. Let me tell you, it did not work. I mean, it still tasted Orange Julius like, but it was gross 'cause not only were we already full, it wasn't frothy. Use real milk, kids, or soy milk! RICE MILK DOESN'T CUT IT! What epitaph do you hope to have written on your

I am hungry like a lovehungry hungrier. NO IT DIDN'T MAKE SENSE. SO SUE ME. I'm startin to become incoherent because I'm in such a hurry to do absolutely nothing... *sighs* More questions soon. If you guys have any for me, you.. nonexistant readers, than let me know. My IM is also iammusiciamgod, btw. But I'm going to go eat dinner, so I'll be away.

Sigh... tarot card readings. I reaallly need suggestions on things to write about... Like, besides the book recs. If anybody has any ideas, please do so. I might be more original later on, but bleh. My mom's making shrimp fried rice and egg soup for dinner! Oh yeah! THis is great! I hope everybody else is having a good time blogging. I have this game that asks questions and you're

*cries* Out of all the books I have, I have none I want to recommend right now! I don't want to do another book by an author I've already done and I'm so lazy. -_-;; Right now I'm trying to keep Rus and Christy occupied. Rus looks like he's bored like a fucknut. Rus says: i am so bored right now.do you really have to be looking at this damn screen all of th time?!meh,i dont know what to say.

I am still looking for sponsors, if any of you would liek to sponsor me. There is a link to the left. I am going to interview one of my guests, Christy, about her favorite books and such. What's one of your all-time favorite books? The book Soulmate in the Night World series by L.J. Smith. Why? Because I'm a hopeless romantic and it sums up all that destiny should be. Do you like any of the

I'm losing track of time! I went through the junk room looking for those old notes, but I can't find them.. however, I do have a typed up dictionary... oh well, I'll just totally remake the whole damned thing. While I was going through the room, I found my old poetry anthology projects we did in middle school... I always loved my 7th grade one, but damn, I wrote such horrible poetry... I was

I've gotten so inspired by ronincyberpunk.com that I'm on a search for the old alphabet I created for my old language Mowmol. I probably won't use it, 'cause it's so fucking DUMB, but it's nice to have it for reference. I'm looking through all my notebooks and I can't find them, the bastards. But I'm gonna have to look the in the junkroom. I'm already sweaty from the exertion, damn. I feel

Along with Glassjaw, another one of my favorite bands are Hopesfall. Yeah, so I'm into hardcore and screamo WAY too much... but I like other things too! Like Vanessa Carlton and Bright Eyes and Modest Mouse and Jason Mraz... and... stuff! I gotta call my mom and see how many watermelons she wants... 'cause I feel like going down to the garden and picking some to pass the time, yo. Yeah, I

Guess who? It'll soon be 8 hours into Blogathon.. it's gone by really fast... and like I, and many others before me and during me, the last hours go by much, much slower. Good Omens is a book cowritten by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. Now many of you know of Terry Pratchett as a comedic fantasy writer, and coupled together by who I think is one of the greatest story-writers of all time,

Rus is a good kisser. Mm. And the cookies smell damned good. I'm listening to Glassjaw's Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Silence. It is damned good, if you're into that kind of music. http://www.glassjaw.com/ I will have something contentful sometime later. If you've read any books that you like, suggest them under "Shout outs". After I finish my book list for the summer, I'll

Dogsbody by Dianna Wynn Jones is adorable, but in a... plotty-way. It's about Sirius (No. Not Harry Potter, sorry.), the "immortal Lord of the Dog Star". Framed for a murder, he's banished from the stars and must live on Earth... as a dog. He's adopted by Kathleen, who lives in an interesting family situation. So Sirius journeys to find the celestial weapon that would clear his name of the

I told Rus that I think it's cute when couples carve their names into bark... so Rus did it for us... Yum. Cute, isn't it? Infinity <3 What are people's opinions on Diana Wynne Jones? She's written the books about the Chrestomanci, and there's also a book called Dogsbody that I'm going to be reviewing next half hour. Okay, the three of us went off on a trek for food...

Anne Bishop's Official Website She is one of my favorite authors... aside from writing short stories and novellas, she's written my favorite fantasy realm ever... in The Black Jewels Trilogy, with a follow-up of another book in the same world called The Invisible Ring. But right now I'm going to talk of another trilogy she's in the process of finishing... specifically, I'll talk of the first

And sometimes they stop and go, "Uh... uh... did I leave the gas on?... no... NO! I'm a fucking squirrel!" And occasionally they go, "FUCKING NUTS! I'm fed up with them, always... I loooong for a grapefruit." *sniff* Yeah, so that's very much like the army. Ahh... Eddie Izzard. You are a comedy God. And of course, if you've never heard/seen him before, that above quote probably wasn't

This is one of my best friend's, Christy. She's the first to come over to keep me company during Blogathon. And she brought Emperor's New Groove to stave off the boredom. Heh. This is the front cover of the Senses Fail EP "From the Depths of Dreams". Tell me it doesn't look like a Death Eater march from the Harry Potter books. TELL ME! (Sorry this post had no content...

This is me, being sexy. As my friend Ian so humorously put it... "I can see your boobs!" I recently finished a book by Kurt Vonnegut called Cat's Cradle. Kurt Vonnegut, according to the back of the book "is a master of contemporary American literature." Oh, and he uses "black humor, satiric voice, and incomparable imagination" in writing. And it's great. Cat's Cradle is a book

AlterxAlice Haha... that's my friend Becca. Her entry about "Who wants an STD?" is my favorite Ridiculous Reality TV idea so far. Also, this site: The Search For Love in Manhattan is amusing. Haikus about... love, and other such things. I am angry. 'cause I am getting a continuous flow of 20 e-mails every 10 minutes. This won't be so bad if I had enough to do. And I put the blogathon
