I remember being 13 years old, working at a summer job with the maintenance crew at my moms work (the kids of the employees often got jobs over the summer doing menial tasks). The bosses daughter, who I had a major crash on, was working also and I got the guts to ask her out. When she said yes, I of course told all my…

De nada.

Gang activity gets exported. They’re mostly everywhere under a lose affiliation.

Semantics. It’s 6 in one hand, half a dozen in the other, really.

You’re cool to me.

Anybody can be a nerd for anything. I see it as having a kind of irrational passion for something that you hold near and dear to your heart. For me, it’s Buffy and Angel, for others, it might be cars or books are writing shitty poetry. All it is is passion.

Good. There is no bad here.

Not until next semester, when the grant process opens up again. She schoomzes and gets so much money for everything else, she just shrugs at 1K being used elsewhere. That money could have lasted through the summer. We had to do a last minute info session about signing up for the test and other classes they can take,…

The GED class I supervise had to end early because our asshole director decided to siphon out our grant fund for her own pet project. Out of everything our department does, that’s the only one that I really loved. The other projects are great, but that GED class was the one that helped the most people: it was free, on…

Going to see Souls of Mischief at the Launchpad in Albuquerque. The place had recently burned down and was rebuilt, better than ever, so they were trying to really sell their first concert series. I am a huge fan of SoM, so I was very excited to see them. Their opening act came on, did about 4 songs, then left. We…

The UVA thing was a goddamned mess, but Anna did her mea culpa, and this article is pretty bias-free. Let it be man.

Much like paying $200 to go to a football game only to get kicked out for threatening a fellow fan. You don’t get a refund and you get banned.

Because what really says love is an ostentatious wearable version of thousand year old carbon.

Yeah, I think Don knows that Sally is better than both him and Betty. She has her whole life ahead of her, with all the potential in the world, while Don and Betty are both irreparably broken.

This season on Mad Men: weird sex stuff, and people doing weird sex stuff with their previous lovers stand-ins.

Heh, I do not, I worded it wrong. The eldest child is 6 years older.

I work with a woman who has three kids that are 11 months apart, and fourth that is 6 years older than the 2nd kid. It boggles my mind.

It’s very emotional. The scares are all personality based and pretty grounded, as far as that goes.

Another good one on Netflix is “House of the Devil.” It’s a slow burn, 70s style horror film with a lot of good pay off. It gets gory at the end,but the blood is definitely earned.

It is. And the scares are all psychological, emotional stuff. Hardly any violence,but a ton of emotional trauma.
