What Lala.com has taught me…
That my tastes have changed since I started collecting music I have a strange attraction to old crooners and jazz singers. Finding good jungle is fucking hard. My goth/industrial stuff is quite popular People don’t visually match their tastes. Everyone likes David Bowie. Not that many people like The Cure. (everyone can keep their snide [...]
Games industry is ‘failing women’
Well no shit! I read this yesterday, but thought it warranted posting. I think everyone knows by now that I love video games. But, I don’t play the sports games, nor most of the first person shooters (they give me a damn headache). I am an RPG or platform kind of girl. Yeah, racing games [...]
9/11 gets a graphic retelling
I think this is amazing. D and Cat mentioned this book to me before, but I thought I should share. If you were a fan of Maus, perhaps you should check this out..
Sex education and other links….
Doh! I shouldn’t be as amused, but I am. Abstinance doesn’t make the hormones grow fonder. It’s a joke to think that teens are not going to explore their sexual selves. The best thing is to arm them safely. Yes, dispel the rumors with sex education. Even offer all the options to pregnant teens. Birthmothering [...]
Dee bee doo bee doooo
Mellow weekend included: horrid movies, discussion, laundry, stressing out my back, canceled plans, cleaning, squirrel sightings, squirrel fighting, birds on my lawn, picking up my new glasses, and playing with lala.com. I was more than a little miffed that my weekend’s wildness was tamed by the state of my back. No crazy monkey sex for [...]
Crack yer bones!
I had a fight with the uppers at work. It wasn’t physical, but I offically cry when I am stressed out. This fight forced me to see a doc about my back. He threatened me with a cortizone shot, but backed off when he saw the fear in my eyes. I hate shots. So, instead, [...]
Back out of balance
I’m taking it in stride, the emotional, scholarly and physical challenges that have been cropping up. I don’t trust anything right now. School is fucking with my head (I ran out of money from the Stafford loan and have to borrow additional monies outside of school) and the continue limbo with my grade really makes [...]
Back to bed
I pulled my back out yesterday. What did I do? Lifted a small bag of groceries the wrong way. I woke up this morning and realized it hurt more than it did last night, so I told work I wasn’t coming in. I don’t think my back would have appreciated sitting in that god awful [...]
Her reply
Hello Erica, I’m happy to provide you the specific breakdown on the computation of your final grade. At my earliest convenience, I shall deliver your graded senior project packet to Marney, the Administrative Assistant for the Philosophy and Religion Department, (located in the French House). Within the packet, I’ll also place a copy of all [...]
The schedule of me

Things to do in Orlando when your’re ….
10 points if you know what I was referring to. Mmmm. Andy Garcia is one of the most beautiful men in the world. The weekend was relatively mellow. Had drinks with Vanya and Scott on Friday. Went to Margarita’s Grill (my favorite restaurant). Headed to Orange Cycle with D only to find out the dream [...]
Toby aka Pip
Toby’s Web Page This was Pip’s original picture. And yes, they called him Toby. It’s hard to see that puppy in the beast we live with today. He still thinks he’s that size, and doesn’t understand that a 38lb bouncing beagle does not a good lap companion make. Now D will tell you the reason [...]
Clarity
My two credits shy debacle will not make the world end. I know there is a reason that this happened, and I will feel the anguish and let it go. What else can I really do? I changed my schedule. Since I have to stick around for one more semester, I delayed my science class. [...]
The crushing blow
Update: I have to speak to the professor about the grade first. The Appeals Committee is the last step in a long line of misery. The real blow? I am one class short of graduation. That means I have to stay till May. I am devastated. It goes back to my class transfers at Miami [...]
My Protest….
Dear Appeals Committee: I have encountered serious ongoing academic issues with Professor Patricia Simmons and her method of instruction for the Humanities: The Modern Period (Hum 306) in the Spring term and I would like to contest my final grade. Due to miscommunication and unprofessional practices, I was required to accept an Incomplete until last [...]
Band Aid on my thumb
Have you ever snagged your cuticle? Not till it bleeds, but just enough to irritate and itch. I’m wearing one of my Incredibles band-aids on my thumb now. It still kind of hurts, but at least it’s not bleeding. So, I have my meeting with my advisor this afternoon. After that, I head home to [...]
That’s Right!
Cause I’m the Jaugernaut Bitch Okay…so it’s not as bad as all that. I was feeling like shit, but then I remembered Anne and this lovely phrase and I had a little giggle. And I thought I would share the love with this little video. This also put things into perspective. I can laugh. I [...]
It will happen….
I wrote a letter contesting my grade. They don’t know what they got themselves into…
I am going to cry
I got a C- in my Humanities class. HOW IN THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN? I made an appointment to see my advisor tomorrow. I am going to contest the grade. I hate that fucking woman. I hate her
Family Extension, Expectation
I started this some months ago, but I finished it today…obviously it was meant to be bisected by time and experience. What is it worth? This bind comes from an accidental consequence. Then, for a lifetime, we are family. But what does that bond allow? And is walking away from yet another family member wise? [...]
