| | So, cancer is lame yes? Yes. And in thinking so I have joined one of those walking things where people give money to crush cancer. I say that because I've joined a team called the Cancer Crushers. The reason Im posting this is because m asking for pledges and monies [moneys?] You can give me these moneys here And then we can tell cancer how dumb he is. | comments: Leave a comment  |

4 parts Pina Colada mix 2 parts Macadamia Nut liqueur 1 parts Spiced Rum
It is delicious. I hope yall get a chance to try it. | comments: Leave a comment  |
| Ran another 5k a few days ago
even slower, 34:13. [1 pt]
Tried for [and got] a promotion, so thats a big thing for February. [1 pt]
Bought a suit that looks and feels good on me. Tailored to my fit. [10 pt]
Old score: 4 [5k*1, something big*1, still 190ish]
New Score: 16/100 F [5K*2, something big *2, Good lookin and feelin suit*1, 190ish]
Quadrupled my score in a month, feeling good about this, but not so much about the half-marathon, my training is not going splendidly. Tell me to do a better job at that. | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment  |
| Today I ran a 5K. My time was a meager 32:45. In the nature of my resolutions, this means I tried something big in January, and ran a 5K this month.
Current Score: F 4/100 [weight about 190, 1*5k, and 1*try something big] | comments: Leave a comment  |

| So once upon a time there was a man in a small town. He went to the small town doctor and said, "Doctor, I think that I may die of unhappiness"
The doctor explains to him that though it is unpleasant, unhappiness can rarely kill you.
"I've tried it all: Medication, meditation, diet, exercise, and love. I've lost my taste for food and women doctor, please help me!"
The doctor has an idea, "Here is a ticket to see the great Pagliacci the greatest clown in the world. I promise you that you will feel immensely better, no matter what."
The man is silent for a moment, and looks up at the doctor. "But doctor" he says, "I am Pagliacci." | comments: Leave a comment  |
| I need to know everything that is wrong with me. Every defect, and every flaw. Everything I do that gets on your nerves, and everything that makes you cringe a little. Please focus on things I can improve on, and nobody tell me Im perfect, because clearly this exercise is to prove to me I am not.
I don't know if I normally allow anonymous comments, but I will be for this one in case you are nervous. | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment  |
| Intelligent Design is the death of science. Its view that some things are too complex for natural processes to create means that at some point we can't learn anymore. That there is a horizon on science's border after which we can only say "It was designed". It limits and restricts its proponents and frankly, its out of the spirit of science up to this point. I am not saying that it is wrong, which I believe. I am saying that it is bad for science to study and bad for students to learn.
Intelligent Design is a religion. It requires some supernatural event at its origin and cannot stand without it. Its designer may not be deific, but it is apparently above the rules and laws that their designed creation works by. It is outside of the nature it designed and therefor it is SUPERnatural. Depending on the supernatural leaves it outside of natural ad material science. | comments: 13 comments or Leave a comment  |
| I was in Middletown, and I bought a car. And Meg avoided me on purpose; I swear I waved an she turned and walked away.
Anyway, I now own a 1995 Eagle Vision. Yea, I'd never heard of it either. But its mine once I register it and get it inured Imma be driving again.
PS: This is because I junked the remix on account of everything breaking forever. | comments: Leave a comment  |
| I expected it, but it still is disappointing to read.
Last year, around November, I applied for a lab tech assistant job in Maryland, and promised many many crabcakes. However, I received a letter yesterday that I overlooked and read today. The phrase "Appreciate your interest" was near the beginning, and it did not give me a good feeling. The encouragement to continue studying and the wish of good luck sealed the deal. My apparent lack of experience in the laboratory science field was lacking too much and the fact that my Biology credit came from a CLEPT instead of a classroom was enough to show that.
Guess Im around for Magestry this season. | comments: Leave a comment  |
| So, after being sick and losing 20ish pounds from basically starvation, I have gone back to a full solid food diet. And I am happy to say I have maintained my health, and managed to get at least some of the muscle back that I lost. I had been thinking of going towards a low to no meat diet, but I realized that I am not good at eating much not meat. Im trying [using small pieces of tofu and black beans to replace about 1/3 of the weight in ground meat dishes and etc.] and I've noticed it hardly affects the flavor.
Anyways, I am planning on trying to get fitter for Magestry and Summer activities, so if anyone out there has any tips and tricks like the meat and beans thing I'd like to hear them, though I admit I've probably heard most of em, no loss in learning more. | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment  |
| I was checking repair prices.
First day I checked I was quoted with 400-500 plus 100 for towing.
Then, 188 plus 100 for towing.
Today I was told I could get it repaired at he cost of parts, 140.
I think that MAYBE if I ignore this problem, it will be free by next week.
What do you think? | comments: 8 comments or Leave a comment  |
| Once upon a time there was a guy driving down the street. An ambulance came right up on his ass and bared the ambulance siren WEEEEOOOOWEEEEEEOOOOWEEEEOOOO! The kind nice smart and handsome driver pulled over, but managed to hit the 14 inch high sharp curve. Then I broke my tire rim.
I jacked up my car, and began to take off my busted wheel when a police officer came up. He tried to give me a ticket for leaving my trunk open. Then, he watched as I jacked the car a little higher, doing it wrong, and broke my tie rod. He then said "I knew THAT would happen."
So moral of the story: I can't drive anywhere for a long loooong time. I have a bike though, for my class and work. But I can't bike to things more than 8 miles [yes Im optimistic] away in this weather.
I hate everything with sirens. | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |
| Yea, this is for Magestry, so there are images in there that may seem forced, but hey it happens.
I dunno maybe "Apocalypse" or "Archipelago"
You look up and see the sheet of sky A dark blue sea; floating fae so bright The large lopsided moon drifts by Leaving ripples in this perfect night
You find me deliciously naive While your steps flutter on the ground You send the greatest glance concieved My nerves destroy my hearts true sound
We are in love. Living out the age We are in love, poetic tides pull me Surrounded right now in such a rage Calm yet elated, we’re the world’s perfect cay. | comments: Leave a comment  |
| | I'm currently within the last month of living at this house [parents] and am being moved out [deadline September 2nd] If anyone out there is also moving I have found a 2 bedroom in Easthampton MA for 700$/month, which I think is a good cost. Also, if anyone out there is looking for a roommate just about anywhere, let me know, I would prefer somewhere somewhat near Agawam since that is where Im working right now, but I think I'll be able to find work elsewhere in a reasonable amount of time [if it is available in the areae]. | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment  |
