Tumblr Crossover!

1. The closest thing I have to a vice these days*

2. Heh heh heh. Finally, Philadelphia comes in handy. It was naive of the campaign to think that PHILLY of all places would behave them simple selves no matter how they felt about the election. So, ATTENTION PHILLIES FANS: IT'S OK IF YOU WIN THE WORLD SERIES NOW. AFTER WATCHING THIS VIDEO I DECIDED THAT I WON'T MIND IF YOU BEAT THE DEVIL RAYS.

3. What will happen to Palin when/if McCain loses? Will she receive some of the blame, or has she been permanently hoisted into the Republican firmament, and we can look forward to seeing her in 2012?

*Probably not true. Probably.

1. I took my LSATs today. I did them at MC, and there was some woman standing by the North Entrance holding a sign of an aborted baby that read "McCain/Palin '08." Maybe it's because I was especially attuned that morning (here's to hopin' oh god) to logical fallacies, but I wasn't sure from the sign alone if McCain is pro or con aborted babies.

2. At the test I was seated next to one of the cutest guys I've ever seen in my life. After dropping me off*, my mom spoke with him as he was coming in (she is basically the opposite of me). She said that he said he had gone to Charleston and that he was "very nervous."

3. "An American Carol" came out yesterday. From reviews I gather that Trace Adkins plays the Angel of Death and himself. So then in the universe of this movie the Harvester of Souls took a break from his duties to write "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk." And then tour with it. I'll tell you more once I see this (I'm waiting for IMAX).

*We were going to Guapo's later, which then became Checker's without anybody asking me.

Thoughts

I had a whole rack of 'em.

1. The second I saw Bruno on the runway I realized that HE would have made the perfect judge for the season finale (spoiler alert: it is not him).

2. Whatever god, force, or Eternal Way is responsible for turning James Taylor from this to this is, if not of hell, certainly hell-affiliated somehow.

3. Vermont Law School is so pretty and cool.

4. FINALLY!

5. KRISPY KREME MOLECULAR GASTRONOMY MILKSHAKE EWW BARF

I Know Where The Summer Goes

Or so claims Belle & Sebastian. I, personally, have no idea. What have I done? I think I read a bunch of books and watched even more movies. I turned my family on to Freaks and Geeks. I had an infertility scare. I again considered becoming a doctor, which I initially scrapped because my biology teacher loathed me for being "poor" (I wasn't, my dad had just died and me lookin' cool wasn't at the top of anyone's must-do list--even mine) even though I was always the #1 student in class. I started a bunch of short stories and then got depressed and did not finish them. I edited my short film together (to keep the theme going, I decided once and for all not to go to film school, yes, because I am a loser who is not good enough wah boo hoo). I received many backhanded compliments about my weight loss. I was able to start running again. I revived this blog. I enjoyed "Pineapple Express" more than everyone in the world, apparently. I got a photo sold, sort of. I got into Rutgers Law and told them "no thanks right now." I saw a Nationals game in their new stadium (and was reminded of how much I love DC). I realized that I am approaching fluency with my French. And several dozen other things I am sure I am forgetting. Oh! And how could I forget the inexorable press on one's heart that is the feeling of time slipping, slipping away from you. That kept happening a lot!

A good alternate title for this post would be "Fun with Giant Blocks of Texts."
