On my way out of the parking lot at Whole Foods, I was suddenly inspired to write a screenplay. This may have had something to do with the two characters speaking back and forth in my head (you’re only crazy if you think they’re real) and my realization that I kind of enjoy creating dialogue.…
In the meantime
Mmmm…Saturday morning. Er. Saturday afternoon which seems like morning to me because I woke up a mere hour ago. I’m not normally one to sleep past noon, but sometimes I just need to catch up on my dreams. Every night that I sleep for fewer than 8 hours, the unused dreams are stored in a…
seri’agi mi jgari lei djacu gi mi jgari le kabri
I read some more in my O’Reilly book about PHP today. I love that programming languages have the privilege of being planned. Human languages are more like “oopses.” They just kind of happened, without forethought or expectation. I wonder what a completely “planned” human language would look like. *Seven minutes with Wikipedia* Apparently I don’t…
MyTunes
Some folks find my music choices strange and/or rather boring. This makes absolutely no sense to me. Did you just pause the ipod in the middle of “Skinny Love?” You don’t want to listen to “The Birth and Death of Day” for the third time in a row? Yann Tiersen doesn’t almost bring you to…
I’m An Engine Driver
Why must I define myself as a writer? I take such stock in this identity. It is my badge of honor. You can take my house, my cat, my job, my favorite dress, all of my friends, and my box of cheez-its, but you can not take “writer” from me. It is mine, self-defined. I…
Have You Ever Transcended Space and Time?
I watched the first five minutes of I ♥ Huckabees last night. Then a friend called and invited me out to Franklin Street. I can never say no to an adventure on a Saturday night, especially if said adventure involves me donning the dress I bought for my first trip to Puerto Rico and adding…
Court or Life Cry Sis
It’s the eve of my 23rd birthday. And by “eve,” I mean that my birthday is in five days. I’m not super-psyched about the event in and of itself. I’m not even sure if I’m getting any presents, which is totally fine. To be honest, I’ve probably already ordered myself a year’s worth of presents…
Of Dresses, Domains, and Designs
Yesterday, under the influence of caffeine, I decided that my best friend needs a blog. She’s into fashion, see. Not just into it, but she’s damn good at it. Back when I was buying tight-fitting t-shirts from Aeropostale (oh, the shame!), she was combining colors and layers (she loves layers) and advising me to purchase…
Royale
I’m thinking that I need a jar of topics so that if/when I’m at a loss for what to write, I can reach in and pull out a word. Today I allowed my roommate to be my jar, and she came up with “royalty.” And it’s weird because there are actually two kinds of “royalty.”…
The rebirth of a turtle
Okay, let’s try this one again. Dear new blog, I promise not to delete you – accidentally or on purpose. I promise not to bore you. I promise not to use you for rants. I’m not sure what you’re going to become yet. But that’s okay. We can figure it out. Let’s introduce ourselves –…
