I finally cracked and created a flavors.me. I need better resolution photos of myself…

I discovered this thing a few days ago, and created one for myself. I need to find my tripod so I can just photograph myself and get it over with.

I’d consider actually coughing up the $20 to use a custom domain, and making that the new frontpage for thegnomeproject.net.

This stuff has seriously saved my hands this winter.  It stays on after a few hand washes and is PERFECT for elbows too.  Also, the gentleman at the Kiehl’s store gave me $20 off my purchase so I got it for free.  The Creme de Corps is amazing, which is the other half of my body moisturizing regimen.

Basically, I only looked at the first letter to see who was posting this, and thought it was jdlayman. Only when I read the words “body moisturizing regimen” did I do a double-take and go back to see who posted this.
It took me until the words “body moisturizing regimen”.

I hate presentations.

After my group presentation earlier this week, the 15 minute (25 minute?) presentation/lecture I gave Wednesday evening on “Vampirism as an Analogue for Rape Culture” and the two presentations I’m giving on Thursday—one on Gabriel García Márquez and one on Generalized Anxiety Disorder—I’m going to be officially done making presentations for the semester.

Four presentations in a week sucks.

I feel your pain, i had six papers, a portfolio, and 4 finals in a span of 72 hours.

re: John

I chose an English major because I didn’t want to do the math.

re: Nate

That is disgusting!

I’ve been meaning to read this, but haven’t. Let me know how it is!

Way to go, champ!

I’m reading Bram Stoker’s Dracula right now. After my weird mythological creature kick in elementary school (the Loch Ness Monster, vampires, Bigfoot) I’m sort of surprised that I never actually got around to reading this. To be fair, I don’t think they had this in my elementary school library OR at the bookmobile.

I went to Columbia tonight with Rebecca, and we met JD at Shakespeare’s Pizza for dinner. We sat around and ate tasty supreme pizza and just talked for awhile. It was really great to catch up. After that, we went to the Andrew Bird concert. St. Vincent opened, and she was pretty good—I hadn’t heard very much of her music before, to be honest. Andrew Bird managed to play an entire concert without Plasticities, Weather Systems or Heretics, which is pretty unusual, but he put on a fantastic show. This was Rebecca’s first concert, and I think she had a good time.

I got back to my house around 1:00 a.m., ate a gyro and it’s now time for bed.
