Happy Halloween.
I spent the greater part of the evening cleaning my apartment like a cracked-out OCD victim. I dusted. I never dust. I hate dusting.

Things to remember for all time:
Before putting yourself out there, be sure you’ve done your research. A thorough job is a job not regretted.

...annnnnnnnnnd scene.
soupsoup: I hope you enjoyed my hour as Magic Molly I received many great requests for other tumblr personas for me to assume. I think it may be more fun for you to guess who I am trying to imitate next time. I need to grab some lunch but when I return, it will be up to you to figure out what costume I am wearing. Bravo, well-played. :)

Just wondering.
How many people do you need in your life to be happy? What capacity do they fill? Do you need one person? None? Should they be a friend, a significant other, or family? How about your immediate family plus one? Or plus two? Can you be happy with no one in your life but yourself? I’m trying to imagine my life without the people I consider necessary, and it’s a painful thing to...

Why does it take so long to figure out which of your friends are friends and which are “friends”? If you want me to explain the quotation marks, you haven’t figured it out yet.

noraleah: I’m going through Percocet withdrawal and it’s not fun. Jitters, anxiety, and all. I know if I can just get through today…. I have to be extremely careful on pain meds. They affect me really acutely, and where some pain medications warn they may cause drowsiness, I will physically pass out. Percocet hits me particularly hard: I feel drunk, I have trouble talking, walking…even...

How did YOU discover tumblr?
sarahchristine: mascarah: I was talking with some fellow tumblrs the other day and was not surprised to learn that most of us found tumblr via the Julia-Jakob-Gawker love triangle. I’m interested to know…how did you find tumblr? who/what introduced you to it? And lastly, when is your tumblr anniversary? I read Goldenfiddle all the time and he linked to his and after reading his Goldenfiddlr...

What Infection???
magicalteacher: Student: My mom said to let you know I am not feeling well. Teacher: I am sorry, what’s wrong? Student: I have a SCIENCE infection. Teacher: A what? Student: A SCIENCE infection…you know, where under your eyes and in your nose, it really hurts…a science infection. Teacher: Ok honey (walking away trying not to laugh in front of the student!) My mom cracks me up with her...

I Hate Girls Who:
Can wear their hair pulled up in an effortlessly messy/chic way. Whenever I try to wear my hair up, it takes me at least 20 minutes to make it look like I did absolutely nothing to it.

Obama-rama.
Obama’s going to be in my hometown of Harrisonburg, VA tomorrow for a rally at James Madison University. My mom got a card stuck in her car windshield wiper on how to RSVP. She just called me and asked if I’ll go with her, and I was quite excited, like yes, just a two hour drive, no problem! And then remembered just how much I have to do in the next 24 hours. I feel a horrible flu...

Post-Laundry Day Report
I have mountains of clothing all over the place. Drying on my balcony, sitting in piles waiting to be folded and unwashed clothing in slightly smaller mounds strewn about in various hampers. Maybe having “Laundry Days” is more appropriate.

Mygazines.com closed??! →
This is unfortunate. I used their high-quality scans for research and for finding elusive articles or items mentioned in months-old issues. So handy, so helpful…so expensive to run.

Why does everyone have a nonflexible opinion about what a wedding should look like and sound like? Why does a bride have to wear a certain veil? Why do you need to have black or pinstriped tuxes? I’m breaking all the rules, apparently.

ONLY CHILD?
byerinb: Are you an only child? Do you think it’s wrong to only have one child? I always get asked “when are you going to have another one?” And I always tell them, “probably never.” Is it so wrong that my son won’t have a sibling? I think it’s perfectly fine. Pregnancy is NOT good to me and I lost my first child- she only lived 4 days after I had her- long story and super sad. The point...

Synonyms.
I’m sleepy and tired. Irritable and frustrated. Anxious and nervous. Frowning and grimacing. Thursdays are supposed to be my lucky day. I’m sure things will perk up once I’m off-campus—and I’m going to Tatiana’s tonight! Must think happy thoughts. Focus on happy things. Content and satisfied. Optimistic and cheerful.

The One and The Internets.
Last night, I was curled up on the couch feeling quite sick, so my loving fiance decided to turn on my his favorite movie trilogy, The Matrix. We’d already watched the first two earlier in the week, so we watched The Matrix: Revolutions. One of the behind-the-scenes special features had interviews with a few producers, who mentioned off-hand that they purposefully made the humans residing...
