Confession:
Sometimes for procrastination and fun I go on to the Daily Fail’s website and click the negative down arrow for every sexist/misogynistic/racist/crap comment.
Didn't unplug the Internet but instead went on...
[REDACTED] I feel this one, was at a gathering recently and a female member was conviced that she was older than me and another male, turns out that she was the youngest, 4 years younger at that … conclusion she feels and looks older than she really is and us guys looked younger than she thought we were … tek care of unnuself ladies, the guys are, at least some of us lol.

Verdict on Graze:
Meh. I see how this could be a rather clever way to manage eating while at the office, but sitting at home all day it wasn’t so fantastic as all of my other lovely foods were still there to tempt me. I didn’t eat the grapes as I gave them to my mate to eat, but I definitely liked the honey almonds and the apple strudel mix was okay. I’m trying it for another two weeks, then...
Last night:
I went to a ska night at the NX Inn with C & her A. Solid evening, filled with some of the most entertaining dancers I have ever seen. Completely pissed Englishmen who no longer care about looking suave getting down on the dance floor = hilarity.

Tumblarity is super super lame.
I haven’t posted in weeks because grad school gets in the way of Internet explorations, and I go back on Tumblr and see a big fat 0 for my Tumblarity. I was intially a bit perturbed, and then thought to myself that I’m not doing this in some weird quest for Internet celebrity so stuff it. I’ll write what I want, post what I want, and ignore the Tumblarity thing because ultimately...
I have been very MIA on Tumblr lately due to:
18,000 total words for essays that were due May 1 and reading 500 newspaper articles for my dissertation research chapter due May 11. Needless to say, grad school is currently kicking my butt. Best of all: I know that I’m doing what I’m supposed to be doing and I’m loving it, even though my butt is whupped.

Do you know how much money I would pay to see Julia get confronted by Jeff Van Vonderen on A&E’s Intervention? Suffice it to say I’d tithe my meager income for those lulz.
HAHAHA. I’ll donate my Stafford Loans to this cause because I probably could end up writing on a dissertation on mediated public disclosure in reality television.
Yay for online books in the Goldsmiths library...
Right now I have so much to do that I am not doing...
which is NOT A WINNING STRATEGY.

I love:
making party playlists. For our breakfast dinner party tomorrow, I’m making a playlist that is supachilledout yet fun. Because honestly I am not hosting a super drunkfest. The idea is to make sure everyone enjoys yummy food and mimosas, and then we all vamanos to a pub for the main action. To ensure that, the playlist is being tweaked perfectly to climax with Semisonic’s Closing Time....
