And so castles made of sand melt into the sea, eventually.
I started this blog in an attempt to further encourage my procrastination and slacker tendencies regarding school work and whatever other daily nonsense I wanted to avoid.
Though I've got to say I have enjoyed writing much of this nonsensical babbling for the past year, I'm starting to feel that maybe my time on blogger is done.
As some rather rude yet earnest peer of mine told me today "Yo, I read your blog. It's like really well written 'n stuff but it isn't very interesting." After recovering from this rather blunt remark, I spewed out the automatic "...Um. Excuse me?"
But I got to thinking perhaps the kid was right.
I would like to think that some other bored people out there, trying to avoid their studies might have gotten some appreciation or at least moderate amusement out of this little site of mine.
Whatever the case, the truth is, I write for me.
Even if it is just the random babblings of a bewildered young girl, I've had fun with this project. And managed to put off copious conundrums of classwork while doing so.
As they say, "Everything must come to an end." And as usual, they seem to be right.
So even though I'll probably be back in a matter of weeks, bitching about some current event or updating my list of sexy and deceased guitarists.
My new favorite person is Bailey McGrath. She weights roughly 15 pounds, likes to test how many surrounding objects she can fit into her mouth at once, and has a smile that would make even Adolf go gaga. Though getting in a bit late in the game, I've started babysitting for one of my mom's coworkers. The result, a brilliant 3 year old named Victoria and her sister, a kid with gray-blue eyes that devour every nuance they pass over with utter amazement and delight (Miss B.).
Obviously there were many nonsensical phrases screamed from my x chromosomes like "Awwww" and "Ahh, bubashana, so cute". So yes, at times, I sounded like an old Yiddish woman (or Yenta for those who have a background). But most importantly I'm in love. And pissed off that I didn't have a digital camera with me today which would've enabled me to post a tedious and exorbitant number of maternal-pride pictures on here of my new buddy. Because trust me it would've been fucking adorable.
On a side note, last night I attended a masquerade ball organized by my friend's Baptist church. In case the Yenta comment above didn't hint at it, that is definitely not my preferred, or familiar, religion. Nevertheless it sounded like it'd be an interesting outing and of course I never turn down an opportunity to dress up.
In short, rather than walking into a stuffy dining hall with proper ladies and gentlemen citing scripture, I was met with a gargantuan disco ball and a smoke machine. Basically I ended up doing the Electric Slide with the pastor who then assisted me in leading the Macarena along with a horde of middle-aged Baptist men and women who rocked my socks out on the dance floor. Good times, good times.
T.V. is passe. And what does a book look like again?
The new frontier of the internet has thoroughly integrated itself into the daily routine of pretty much anything on the planet that can carry out at least 3 out of the 10 life processes.
Whether you enjoy the electric plexus because it allows you to pirate music or simply appreciate it for the numerous occasions when you can imagine you're a 10 year old girl named Kara with blonde pigtails, the world wide web caters to all.
Though on my travels I've come across quite a number of worthy sites, it seems as of late I've been sticking to the same routine of websites.
Thus, I'm asking any and all of you for a link or two that you feel is noteworthy or at the very least amusing, verging on offensive. Pretty much anything obscure and/or interesting to spice up my internet itinerary a bit.
Or no one could comment on this post and I'll look like a douche. And a lonely douche at that. Either way, I've probably already mentioned most of my favorite links or they're located to the right of this post under Brain Candy, but here are some more of my findings that have tickled my fancy in the past:
Today I sent an old friend a few pictures of myself in a slightly compromising ensemble, or lack thereof, in the name of democracy. (And MySpace).
I believe the dumb ho response of "tee hee" is appropriate at this juncture.
You see, he, being a hardcore bush supporter, offered me a deal I just couldn't refuse. In exchange for allowing me to refurbish his space page with anti-bush decorations, I finally gave into letting him have a small gander at a few blurry, grainy webcamera pictures. Oh, sure some may think stooping to such a level of perverse correspondence is no way to achieve peace. And they're probably right.
But let's be frank. I've known this person for over 4 years, and much, much less familiar people have had a peek or two at the twins.
So, for what it's worth I may be making way toward a better America, one amateur picture at time. Or more likely, at the very least, contributing to the Hun's database.
On a side note, I really hope my family members aren't privy to this blog yet. As a post such as this is most likely not fit for the online community, not to mention my Gramps.
