In Coffee Spoons

Tres

Have not been around due to internet kafucked. At the lab as much as possible, which will increase when fall semester begins kicking my ass in a couple of weeks.

Fall semester:

• Medical Ethics & Law
  
• Office Word Processing
  
• Medical Office Procedures
  
• Medical Records Management
  
• Medical Transcription II
  

At least all but one (Ethics & Law) is online/FLEX. I *was* looking forward to an entire semester in my pajamas, but I guess we'll see how it goes.

Enjoying limited tagging and unlimited reading on my whole entire three weeks of summer vacation. Trip to the dunes soon-ish. Mmmm sand.

Utterly unrelated:

The Rated "R" Meme
✘ comment with a character of mine. (Any game)
✘ receive three bits of trivia about their sexuality: practices, preferences, experiences, fantasies, kinks, etc.

January: GJ went down in dramatic flames of flaming drama.

February: Please take care to label your mp3s correctly, and double-check that you haven't mixed up any titles.

March: I'm sorry, what?

April: Check out Erin's journal first for her very, very short and very, very perfect review of the Burton adaptation.

May: This is me *finally* updating about my move more than a week after it happens, go me.

June: Lettuce, tomato,
cucumbers and celery,
carrots and your mom.

July: So the plan *was* to watch La Orfanata, then go to bed.

August: I totally could not play that game at all.

September: I'm alive.

October: I spent the last couple of weeks doing five minutes of freewrite a day, a nonstop uncensored stream of anything that my mind tossed out.

November: I was really unsure of whether he'd get Michigan, so all of my voting friends rock.

December: Oh, what would I give to be wrong about human nature.



That is a lot less coherent than this meme usually turns up for me. Awesome.

Every day I fully intend to make a good long post about how I'm actually doing, and every day I end up doing shit like this instead:



See, if I'd been updating, that image would actually make sense.

Sort of.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 56.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next seven sentences in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

He lifted the host in consecration with an aching remembrance of the joy it once gave him; felt once again, as he did each morning, the pang of an unexpected glimpse from afar and unnoticed of a long-lost love.

He broke the Host above the chalice.

"Peace I leave you. My peace I give you..."

He tucked the Host inside his mouth and swallowed the papery taste of despair.

When the Mass was over, he polished the chalice and carefully placed it in his bag. He rushed for the seven-ten train to Washington, carrying pain in a black valise.

--The Exorcist, William Peter Blatty

(This book is seriously terrible. Go movie go.)

Journal's currently undergoing a makeover, as you can see.

Makeover somewhat fucked for completely unknown reasons.

ETA: I'm now thinking that I'd like to switch back to one of my old layouts and just keep this colour scheme and background, but I don't know if I could upload my header image as a journal title. Going to keep playing with it.

Also, posted the missing answers to the music meme.

ETA: Final answers posted!

1) Hit shuffle on your playlist and pick the first thirty songs to come up.
2) Write down a line of the song (try to avoid using one that contains the song title).
3) Have your friends comment and see if they know the songs. (NO CHEATING!)
4) When someone guesses correctly, strike out the line and list the correct name of the song next to it.

( Weird lyrics of weird music. )

Skipped a lot of songs that were instrumental, or weren't in English, so you're welcome. Had a hard time deciding what constituted "a line" with some songs, due to the line between obvious and impossible. Went with impossible on a couple cause Erin knows them so damn well.

I may do a similar movie quote meme soon. Like the next time I have to try very hard not to think about John McCain.

Here is a stupid meme for you, since I wouldn't want anyone to get the impression that moving to Ann Arbor has given me any kind of real life.

That, and I've been up since 5 in the morning.

These are my 10 favorite things that start with P. Comment to receive your own letter.

1. Planets. Fascinated me as a kid, fascinate me now. I don't understand anyone *not* fascinated by them, especially you reading friends who are as sci-fi-fueled as I am. As a kid I dreamed of conquering Jupiter's raging storm.. Saturn and its moon hold a lot of exciting promise now. There is a popular theory that it rains fucking diamonds on Neptune. Come on.

2. Pizza. God damn do I love me some pizza. The two best pizza places in this town closed, and now there is only one place left. The pizza is decent but not as good, and it is run by crazy people. I don't mean "Ha ha, they act funny, they're so crazy", I mean I took care of their kids in daycare and have personally witnessed dysfunctional insanity. Oh, right, this is supposed to be about things I love and not about banes of my existence. Right. I love pizza.

3. Paintings. Hey, I can pull a double letter score here and say Paintings by Picasso. But more generally, paintings. I've been really into art lately and looking up all my favorite artists. Of which there are many. And some begin with P.

4. Presents. Self-explanatory. Yup.

5. Piercings. Piercings can look really cool, piercings can look really hot, piercings can look really horrifying. Sure, everyone and their dog has one now, but why is this an issue? Still looks good.

6. Phi. Phi kicks pi's ass. Phi is everywhere. Phi rules everything. Phi is beautiful.

7. Piano. I wish I could play the piano. I wish it hard. I can play the beginning bit of Moonlight Sonata, and I would give my right arm to be able to play the whole thing, except that would kind of be shooting myself in the foot, except more in the arm than in the foot, but you get my meaning.

8. Pirates. Come on. This needs no explanation. Pirates.

9. Platypi. You weird little leftover-parts bastards.

10. Poetry. Full stop.

Not so much my all-time favorites as the favorites that came to mind.

Damn it, I didn't leave room for Pterodactyl.
