It's you, It's you, It's you.
It’s always been you.

I added StreamPad to my Tumblr, because I can.
Watching movies with my family is agonizing, because nobody pays attention to the movie and the dogs are loud and my parents talk to the dogs during the movie.
The world will give you that once in a while, a brief time-out; the boxing bell...

I registered a new domain for potential use as my new weblog URL.
It won’t resolve at the time of me writing this, but the address is http://myopicbiopic.com.
myopic: (1) nearsighted: unable to see distant objects clearly (2) short: lacking foresight or scope
biopic: a biographical movie
Sure, there’s no video of me on here, and I’ll probably keep things that way, but I like...

"i have found what you are like" by e. e. cummings
i have found what you are like
the rain,
(Who feathers frightened fields
with the superior dust-of-sleep. wields
easily the pale club of the wind
and swirled justly souls of flower strike
the air in utterable coolness
deeds of green thrilling light
with thinned
newfragile yellows

Someone should buy me a hardcover collection of e. e. cummings poetry. I deserve it.
I’ve seen basically the whole Warrensburg crew in the past 24 hours, and that’s been nice. It’s good to see everyone.
I’ve gotten to spend a lot of time with Rebecca, which has been great. Every time we’re together again after not seeing each other for a couple weeks, I find myself...

Because one mile just isn’t intense enough. At least you didn’t milkmaid this year.

Whoever spoke first would lose something, that was the stupid unspoken rule. The stillness would be a clamor, a capo on a nerve. He’d stare out the window, she’d put away dishes, anything for some noise. They’d sleep in different rooms. The trick was to speak as if you hadn’t spoken, a comment so incidental it wouldn’t be counted as speech. Or to touch while passing, an accident...

Guys it’s hot outside. I’ve spent almost my whole day indoors observing classrooms, and I’m about to spend a big chunk of my night in class. I would rather be out on a walk or something, for sure.
I have to give a “speech of tribute” tonight, so I’m pretending that JD is getting married and I’m giving a toast or something. I found plenty of pictures, so...

I stole this from Kacie’s facebook status.
I want out of here. I can’t wait to see Rebecca on Saturday. I can’t wait to see everyone else on Saturday.
I had a group presentation today on Motivation and Regulation of the Internal States in my Brain and Behavior class. I presented a section on Obesity, and it was only 12 minutes long instead of the requested 15. That said, I presented my information clearly, and used stupid...

It’s nice outside, so I’m barbecuing an early dinner for myself, then considering baking a cake.
I hate group projects, you guys.
A lot.

What if a Much of a Which of a Wind
what if a much of a which of a wind gives the truth to summer’s lie; bloodies with dizzying leaves the sun and yanks immortal stars awry? Blow king to beggar and queen to seem (blow friend to fiend: blow space to time) -when skies are hanged and oceans drowned, the single secret will still be man what if a keen of a lean wind flays screaming...
