i'm losing it...

Posted on April 19, 2008
...clearly i'm going crazy if i get home after a long day of paper writing [and then a bit of post-paper beer drinking...], i take out my computer, boot it up, and say to myself: "yay, it's the weekend! that means i can boot into linux instead of windows!" *hides face*

earthquake?

Posted on April 18, 2008
i woke up this morning, logged onto facebook...only to see status updates from friends all over the midwest talking about an earthquake. i slept right through it, but apparently there was a 5.2 quake last night, centered in illinois, and you could feel it in st...

llama!

Posted on April 17, 2008
Wash U turned part of the quad into a petting zoo today. it was awesome. i was walking from the law school over to the undergrad library, because the undergrad library has very cozy chairs and i wanted to take a nap. in the grass by the library i saw a llama, a donkey, a calf, and a camel...

omg. the chicago location of Ian's Pizza is opening in june!!! i know, i know, it's not chicago pizza. it's a madison thing. but, the idea of being able to get macaroni and cheese pizza whenever i want, without having to truck myself up to madison, makes me super happy...

nothing in particular

Posted on April 16, 2008
argh. i can't have a coherent thought to save my life. so...a few observations on a few unrelated matters. yesterday choir superlatives for the year were given out. i got two of them...neither of which are probably a surprise to any of you who know me...

happy tax day!

Posted on April 15, 2008
i just filed my taxes. this makes me feel really, really productive. i know i should have done it before April 15th. i know i should have done it earlier, so i could have spent my mid-day hours doing things like "going to copyright class" and "working on my Research Log On Crack that is due on friday...

vital information

if you google the more she drinks the better you look, this little blog [or, at least the LJ copy of this little blog] is the #1 hit. cheap! cheap! fun! fun! indeed.

bad puns for the win, always and forever

i like this morning's Dinosaur Comic far more than i should.

advertising gone wild

Posted on April 14, 2008
i'm watching Rock of Love, and just saw an ad for AT&T Wireless "GoPhone" pay-as-you-go service. the ad was a bad knock off of the "sleep on it" section of "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights" by Meat Loaf. i wasn't looking at the screen, but looked up instinctively, just to see...

oh, the internet is a screwed-up place.

boring computer blather

Posted on April 12, 2008
my computer likes me a lot more today than it does yesterday. i've had an idle curiosity for a while to screw around with linux on my computer...but i'm a total noob when it comes to computer stuff other than websurfing, email, and other common applications-type pursuits...

fantasy fishing?

Posted on April 10, 2008
most of the signs they post near the student centre make sense. there are a bunch of ads for concerts, movers, student events...the usual bevy of advertisements peppered around a university campus. then, there are some signs with Hulk Hogan pointing forward with one hand, and with a bunch of cash clenched in his other fist...

ink geek.

Posted on April 10, 2008
i'm fascinated by Carl Zimmer's Science Tattoo Emporium. it's a blog created by a science writer that showcases different science-related tattoos. he aims to post a different one every day. some are cooler than others...i'm far more into the chemistry and physics tattoos than i am the biology ones, for obvious reasons...

crying

Posted on April 10, 2008
it's been a long time since the onion made me cackle with laughter. they did it this week: I Can't Imagine Why Anybody Would Want To Stop Crying By Emmet Henson 2-Month-Old Life has so many wonderful experiences to offer. Like sleep. Or ingestion and evacuation...

the more she drinks, the better you look...remember to drink responsibly!

this morning rules. why does this morning rule? becuase they finally have a Dirt Cheap ad on YouTube! i love Dirt Cheap ads. Dirt Cheap is a liquor store in the st. louis area. they run these hilarious Bad Locally Produced Ads on television, featuring the owner [Dirt Cheap Fred] and the Dirt Cheap Chicken...

a letter to the MPRE

Posted on April 07, 2008
dear MPRE, i know you like having power over me. i know you like making me feel stressed-out, confused, angry, and down on myself. but, you can do this no more. despite the fact that i was no more ethical in march than i was in november, i have passed you...

back

Posted on April 07, 2008
i was so busy this weekend that i didn't have time to write anything here. it was an awesome weekend, though...i was at college mock trial nationals. i saw two really good rounds: Ole Miss versus Northwood, and Chicago versus UMKC. i also worked in the tab room all four rounds, which was really exciting...

reemerging

Posted on April 03, 2008
i'm finally starting to feel like a human being again, but i'm still not quite there. hence...more bullet points! environmental moot court is finally out of my hair. the semifinals were tuesday night...and i was worried we may make finals, because my team did quite well...

black hat for the win.

Posted on April 02, 2008
YAY!!! he got his hat back. the world has regained equilibrium.

wtf?

Posted on April 01, 2008
the preliminary rounds of the environmental moot court competition were last night. since i've got a midterm in federal jurisdiction due tomorrow, i was really, really hoping to be done after the preliminary rounds. i kept my hair bright purple. i read back over my brief and my notes, skimmed the record, and that was about it...

iHave an iPod, and other stories

Posted on March 31, 2008
things that make me happy: having a functional iPod again. i'm sure you all remember my little rant last weekend about my iPod refusing to sync up with all the music i had on my computer. that made walking around and taking the bus this week really, really boring; i've become so accustomed to being able to listen to music and podcasts on the bus...

*swoon*

Best. Pickup. Line. Ever. if someone even only somewhat attractive said that to me, i'd totally sleep with them. silly pickup lines made really, really nerdy are hot.

turing test

Posted on March 30, 2008
wow. today's Dilbert strip was the first hilarious one i've seen in months.

a barely legal reflection

Posted on March 30, 2008
barely legal is over. this makes me really sad. i always feel that way after a performance...after working so hard to get everything just right, it's suddenly over. i feel especially sad about this, though. it's my last barely legal. it was so much fun to be in, so funny to watch the other skits...

good bracket fortune

Posted on March 29, 2008
i was just checking my bracket...and somehow, despite the Duke Debacle [which i'm still really sad about...], i got all the other teams in my Elite Eight correct. i nailed Davidson, Kansas, Louisville, UNC, Memphis, Texas, and UCLA. i don't think i've ever gone 7/8 in picking an Elite Eight before...

what would you do?

Posted on March 27, 2008
pop quiz! you are Adolphus Busch V. you are seventeen years old, and related to some fairly well-known local beer magnates. it's a tuesday night, and you and your friends are bored. what do you do? A. make plans for a party on Friday or Saturday, and then call it a night...

bizarro world

Posted on March 27, 2008
sad news: batman whooped Wesley Willis' ass. your mission, if you choose to accept it? whoop Batman's ass by googling Wesley's name. a lot. :D

field trip

Posted on March 27, 2008
this is freaking sweet. Davidson is in the Sweet Sixteen. the trustees of the college are funding a bus trip, as well as hotel reservations and game tickets, for any students who want to go up to Detroit this weekend to go watch the team play this weekend...
