LJ's "Writer's Block" question of the day:
It’s the Day of German Unity, marking the 1990 reunification of East and West Germany. In our current period of global instability, do you ever feel nostalgic for the seeming simplicity of the Cold War?
What the jesus is this bullshit? It's like something that would be on the Yahoo front page.
My Friday night while roomie (need a codename) goes off to a party with her boyfriend: sitting at my desk wearing a srsly giant red pizza t-shirt, rewatching s1 of Dexter on my laptop and peeling off the silver foil on gum wrappers and pasting them on an index card. I am board.
That's my cue to talk about my cerebral thoughts on Dexter. Geez this show is good. The opening sequence is one of the best ever on television, super brilliant. This show is so effortlessly engaging, and not in the way most serial killer media is (sick morbid interest). It's genuinely fun to watch. I love Rita; Julie Benz is so good. Michael C. Hall goes without saying. Deb is awesome. SUDDEN DOWNTURN: Doakes is like a textbook example of a good character ruined by a TERRIBLE ACTOR. That guy plays him like a fucking cartoon commercial, what the fuck is all that ridiculous posturing? It is so over the top, it can't be attributed to the character. It's the fucking actor. I HATE HIM.
A conversation I had with my mom today:
Mom: I met [person at church] the other day and she complimented you!
Me: What? I don't know who that person is.
Mom: She said she met you once when she was working at a church event and you offered to help her.
Me: That doesn't sound like something I would do.
LOL it really doesn't. Sorry, person at church, you got it all wrong.
I was pulling in the library (it's just kinda shelving in reverse, no matter how euphemismy it sounds) the other day and I saw a book called Circles Move In and I thought, "oh that's kind of clever, I like that kind of thing actually, because you can automatically finish that in your head as 'circles move in circles', and that's both a neat image and a neat wordplay thing. And since the phrasing is ambiguous, you can also read it as circles closing in on something or someone blahrrrrmaglelkewjr;ls", I went on this whole thing in my head. But it turned out that the book was actually called The Circles I Move In. What a cockblock. Anyway I wrote that all out because I want you to waste your life.
I'm thinking about being more adventurous in my clothes. Well 'adventurous' in that I'm thinking about wearing skirts in public and stuff. It would be a sizable difference for me though. Pretty scary stuff.
