TO MOLLIFY LINGJACKSON OVERDRIVEBERT WHO IS THE SQUEAKY BO, POST ON THIS THREAD AND ONE OF YOUR FRIENDLY ITR MODS WILL TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE WICKED AWESOME, AND POSSIBLY OFFER AN EFFUSIVE STATEMENT OF WHY THEY ARE NOW PLAYING A RECORDING OF KENNY G's SONGBIRD AS PLAYED ON THE ORGAN AND/OR WHY YOU HAVE NO ORGANS JUST A SLIDE RULE

(can't remember if I captured that or not)

I think that you did, but you know - JUST IN CASE.

I did put it into my Word document.

Which one of us is more obsessive?

no no no fuck old friends the best thing in the world is when all your online retail therapy shows up at once. it's four in the afternoon, do you know where your new kitchen knives, cookbooks, graphic novel by doug tennapel and yet another pair of black doc martens are?

paying down debt for years and then finally getting rid of it is kind of like that trick where you press on the door frame as hard as you can for a while and then when you step away your arms just involuntarily go up all by themselves

omg I need new dms

Last week I ordered multiple books and cds. I also broke down and ordered an electric blanket. Sure it's warm TODAY, but I've spent the last 4 months shivering. I HAD TO TAKE ACTION

xpost Tom, that is a nice metaphor!

HI DERE I got these (five eye kyle moc toe boots, black, because I already have a pair in brown lol) on sale @ onlineshoes.com. my love affair with zappos is kind of over.

omg I can replace my wingtips for 99.95

WAIT NO WAIT WTF

Am I giving those to A for his birthday Y/N

N (why because they fugly)

Dan, you are a better friend to my husband than I am!

Although you're right: I would not give him an expensive horrible present unless I also had money for expensive awesome presents to make up for my cruel behavior.

oh shit bump

speaking of shoes: i bought my first pair of hiking boots the other day. jordan said it was the most romantic thing anyone's ever done for him {i've NEVER hiked, but he is a big outdoorsy guy, and i've promised to give it a go when i move to US}

also: i will miss the 65% i get on eccos when i leave

I really need to buy some new running shoes. I walk a LOT of miles on them on my treadmill. Maybe I will be able to walk outdoors again someday, now that it appears the deep freeze has at least paused!

Talking to myself to waste a bit of time bump

going to start writing the last paper for this class bump

frequent recent bumping bump

farrrk. This is meant to be a slow time of the year. Thanks, boss, for fucking off to teh US for 3 weeks >:O

Uh-oh, bosslessness isn't good if you're super busy...

Still up! Still writing! Going to bed soon before lapsing into total incoherence! bump

Giving up, going to bed; it's way too late at night to start struggling with APA formatting and pretty soon anything I write is not going to make much sense. Joy!

Good night, all.

it would really suck if my next-door, wall-sharing neighbors existed. oh wait, they do!!

god wtf now they're playing Alphaville - "Forever Young"

who gets in a shouting match at 11 pm and then thinks "you know, i really want to listen to alphaville right now."

of all the fucking songs

actually, who does anything at all and then thinks "you know, i really want to listen to alphaville right now."

uh, me

wait, I'm thinking of Animotion.

I am helping protect all of you folks from so much fantasy cyber nonsense right now

actually, who does anything at all and then thinks "you know, i really want to listen to alphaville right now."

goddamnit i always gotta come in here and freak out about the thread title when i get home BUMP

i got my other graduation present from jordan today! ok technically it's from his parents, since they paid for this one, but he picked it out. holy crap i almost peed my pants when i saw the photos of it: it's this fucking huge, black silk bound, hardcover book of photography by one of my very favourite photographers, robert parkeharrison. i didn't even know this book existed, which is why it was such an awesome surprise. here is one of the photos:

i have the best boyfriend in the world!!

NIGHT WATCHMAN'S HOME NOW BUMP.
GOOD NIGHT FROM THE NIGHT WATCHMAN.

oh man, i just watched michael moore's 'sicko'... deeply, deeply upsetting. i guess when you've lived your whole life within that kind of system you're kind of used to it. but living in a country where healthcare is essentially free for all, i can't even begin to comprehend what it's like in the US. i mean, i complain about having to pay $45 for doctor's visit, but if i had an accident a trip to the emergency room is completely free; if i got appendicitis the operation is free.

it really scares to me think about getting sick or being in an accident while i'm living in the states.

This is why you work for the government if you can. If you're me.

Or sell out and go into a profession that has more cash than sense (hi dere softwarez).

your healthcare might be hell expensive, but damn your electricity is cheap. when jordan told me he pays around $15 p/month i couldn't believe it. even now, in summer, our power bill (between four of us) is around $250 p/month, and electricity rates are still climbing on a regular basis.

rubyredd have you ever swam with moko the dolphin?

moko the dolphin?? never heard of him, but there was opo (i think) the dolphin awhile back.

'moko' is a maori facial tattoo. FYI.

HE SAVED TWO PYGMY WHALES.

awww i just read the article.

i can't believe this stuff makes international news.
