“This is about sex, this place, as well. That it’s about her discovering sensuality. And also that she’s not just admiring Darcy’s wealth, but she’s admiring his culture, she’s admiring his appreciation of beauty. That he has a sensitive soul. And that she loves him for his sensitivity”. (Joe Wright, Director).

before i go to school i am for sure rewatching this, and possible rereading it. also, for good or for bad, keira knightly is the standard of beauty i usually hold myself up to. i will never make it.

can i be on the list? just kidding. kind of. xoxo!!!

Of course. The list is really pretty much everyone who’s ever on my dash, but 200-odd people (less the ones who don’t post and just haven’t been weeded out / are repeats for topical tumblrs) in one room gets kinda crowded. We might need to rent a hall or something.

But leave your phone at home so you don’t get calls from work.

can we rent a cocktail bar instead?

We’re renting a TV bar. Like a sports bar, but we can watch awesome TV instead.

if cool librarians from tumblr and chicagoland are getting together, i may have to crash the party. you see, i am a librarian at heart.

someone bought a book from me on amazon

they live about 10 minutes away from me. would it be acceptable for me to put it in a box, address it, and drop it on their front porch?

"The exact way Lunesta works is unknown."

capriquarius:

“Lunesta has some risk of dependency. Walking, eating, driving or engaging in other activities while asleep without remembering it the next day have been reported. Other abnormal behaviors include aggressiveness, agitation, hallucinations and confusion. In depressed patients, worsening of depression including risk of suicide may occur.”

Well, that’s reassuring. Thanks, Lunesta, but just the same, no thanks.

Ah, sleep drugs. I have fought and fought and fought with sleep issues (see this photo from last night’s sleep study), and have decided that there is no perfect answer. I hate to hear when other people struggle with it, too, because I know that it is utterly miserable.

Because you all want to see what I look like hooked up to EMG ECG EKG EOG EEG pulsox, and various other things. The funny thing is, they put this all on me and ask me to sleep normally. my sister emily thought it was hilarious. odd, no?

People have been telling me for ages that I need to read this series. The third book just came through my mending basket and the tagline “On the third day, there were pirates!” might have me convinced.

I just read this series. It was solid, but not awesome.

this cannot be real

i was recently invited to an event on facebook hosted by someone who graduated from eighth grade with me. this is the text of the event, copied and pasted.

“Hey everyone!!! Since a lot of us haven’t seen each other for years, I say we get together and dooo some serious catching up… with a couple beers to loosen things up since we’re probably all down ass mothafuckas now (this is the product of being a bell student ofcourse). Anyways, Bonnie **** has been so kind and gracious as to offer her apartment as THE spot, so lets talk life and maybe play some drinking games togedder this weekend. If this weekend doesn’t work for lots o’ people, write it on the event wall and we shall figure it out so we can all show”

i can’t even tell you how sad i am that this is the intelligence level of people my age. Note:most of these kids are underage

I watched Despicable Me today.
I won’t lie. I loved it. Everything about it was hilarious. Maybe I was just in a really good mood or something. The little minions are so freaking funny. I love the cute little Asian girl. Very funny stuff.

Sad I didn’t see Inception, though. But mark my words, that will change before the end of this week :)

Want to see this.

FABULOUS

childhooddreamer:

My parents are amazing.

Now, technically I have never met these people, but I said hello to your mom from inside my bed when I was deathly ill with pneumonia/flu, and it may have been the delirium, but I don’t think she sounded like her photo.

Inception is absolutely full of pretty men, isn't it?

The story is terrific too. But the eye candy was absolutely superb.

I NOTICED THAT TOO. i mean, of course, he was at the top of my list, but there was plenty to look at.

AWESOME. especially on family vacations when sleeping in the same room as my dad, who snores like, well, who snores really loudly.

me:oh my gosh, dad, did you see that animal dragging itself across the road?
dad:yah, looked like a muskrat
me:it was hurt! turn around!
dad:what would you do with it?
me:i dunno, put it out of its misery?
dad:how? run over it again?

tomorrow i head to an asperger's conference with my dad

i would make up a joke about people who don’t like other people or know how to relate to them congregating and silence reigning, but i don’t want to.

also, i’m a little resentful of the whole thing, so if there’s a news story about how someone flipped out at a conference tomorrow, that would be me.
