meh, nothing much. just killing time for the next 16 days.

oh man my housemate just came sobbing to me because she's so upset by how shittily our other two housemates treat her. can't wait to leave this place but feel so bad for her. at least she's getting to move into my room when i go, which is detached from teh house and huge, so she can disassociate with them.

RR - I'm glad that you're getting out of the situation - I hope things improve for your housemate.

xp Good lord, I'd last about 30 seconds as a vegan. Maybe less. Meat I can live without, but god help you if you try to take my cheese away from me.

yeah this used to be a great house, then this horrible guy called nigel moved in around this time last year, and he's an absolute asshole - so temperamental, snarky, always making not quite direct innuendos about everything, complainng, etc.

my housemate sarah has a dog, and it's impossible to find anywhere to rent where they'll let you have even cat, so she's stuck here, and it doesn't look like retard-nigel is moving out anytime soon. BUT I AM!!!

God that sounds frustrating. I'm happy for you, BUT... Hmmmmm, maybe you should persuade your housemate to move to the U.S., too. Although I suppose the dog thing is an obstacle there, too.

I'm totally worn out from the day and I'm going to sleep. Hope you all are having a lovely evening!

HAY GUISE!!

i just saw salif keita and he was sooooo awesome and then it turned out the guy next to us at our table was the drummer from living colour and went up and drummed w/ them for the encore!!!

awww night, sara!!

hey guys we just watched "atonement", thus breaking our string of watching movies that are good.

it's your own fault for putting in the dvd

fair, but cruel

at least the costumes were pretty.

I think Batman Begins is next in our queue. I'm pretty sure A. chose that, not me. But hey, why not.

everyone i know loved it, but i thought it just okay. except for christian bale - i would watch anything that he is in.

I know nothing about it at all! I'm just working under the assumption that it is about Batman.

pretty good assumption thar :) Crucially though, it is about the beginning of Batman!

Weirdest birth scene ever?

ackasldgkj advisor will not give this shit up! she is now trying to get me to do a music copyist internship? um, no thanks. i don't understand how in her brain sitting there copying music for less $ for broadway is more worthwhile than doing contracts and finance and working with opera people?

also, morning itr!

Hi tehresa! Can I ask, is the h in your name really as it's written here or is that for crazy interweb "teh" gags?

it is for interweb gags but also lol no one can ever spell my name properly anyway, so why not make joek out of it!!

ITR = preserve of sanity at the moment.

yah rly

tehresa, i am glad that someone shares my pain of never getting my name spelled right.

uh i was referring to justen, not beyonce, btw

You try being called my name (which you have on the backo0f an envelope somewhere)

lol ;)
xpost

Beyonce Justen is tricky to spell. Justen alone seems kinda simple, though. (Then again, I've been surprised by the number of people who try to put an r in Coolidge).

tehresa - is your advisor ever going to GET OVER IT? (Theresa isn't that hard to spell, either... jeez.)

Also - hi Ed!

DON'T GIVE AWAY HER REAL NAME ON THE INTERNETS!!

no, it's not hard to spell but you'd be amazed how many reply to emails that have the name THERESA staring RIGHT AT THEM with "dear teresa,"

i don't know what her deal is. i am supposed to call her today but i don't want to.

i like tehresa better than theresa tbh

i also did not notice that was a misspelling until just now so that probably says a lot for the amount of salt you should take that opinion w/

CROOLIDGE

do the cool ridge

katharine is rough too. first they need to know if it starts with a K or a C. then they need to know if it ends in rine or ryn. then i have to also tell them its an a and not an e in the middle which just gets a lot of HUH?

It is kind of a mystery to me why people go out of their way to make up new spellings of names to make their kids stand out (or whatever their reasons are) when even the most generic name (i.e. SARA) has multiple possible spellings.

Katherine is a VERY pretty name, no matter how you spell it, btw.

yeah but in their defense sunny i imagine its kinda like -

katharine - with a k, and an i-n-e at then end, and an 'a' in the middle

WTFF why dont you just TELL ME HOW ITS SPELLED?

This is my third contribution to this thread. I have had laryngitis for the past week, and now I am over it. I cannot tell you a better feeling imaginable than the one I experienced last night: lying in bed and feeling my sinuses spontaneously clear out for the first time in a week -- loads better than sex.

but deez when i just spell it they read it back with the E anyways

haha. yes. that is what happens to me. 't-h-e-r-e-s-a-' ok 't-e-r-e-s-a'

Hello HSTNGS.

My entire family has a reflex action to spell our surname every time we say it.

Wow, is your name really hard to spell, like, I don't know, Wcyznci or something?

my dad's mother actually forced him and his sister to change their last name due to red scare/bad spelling confusion.

Wow. I always thought "Robinson" was painfully boring, but maybe I should have been grateful.

REMY WE GOT A MYSTERIOUS PHONE CALL FROM A COLLEGE FRIEND WHO CLAIMS HE MET YOU IN SEATTLE

wtf am i doing awake

i just had this dream that a guy was going to stamp on my hands really hard (and making me leave my rings on while he did it, for maximum damage). i woke up bawling my eyes out because i couldnt get away.

i always spell my last name out, even tho it only has four letters. no one ever hears it right. FYI: my current last name is not my birth name, and i have actually gone by 3 different ones. i is a lady of myyyyyyyystery.

people who are my facebook friend know what my last name is. NO ONE SPELLS IT RIGHT. EVER. OR PRONOUNCES IT RIGHT. IT IS THREE LETTERS.

Person: "What's your name?"
Me: "Jessie [LAST NAME]"
Person: "Could you spell that, please?"
Me: "[VERY EASY SPELLING OF THREE-LETTER LAST NAME]"
Person: "....OH."

Obviously my first can be spelled any number of ways, but it doesn't really bother me. I hate it when parents spell their kids' really boring suburban names in "unique" ways to make them more special (variations on katherine/theresa do not count here, I'm talking like "meagghainnn" etc.)

I should also mention my last name is an extremely common noun.

"monster" is not actually all that common in general people speak

lol jessie to poeple pronounce it 'french style' a lot?
