You know those couples who have a list of celebrities they're allowed to sleep with without getting in trouble with their significant other? Well, I have a list like that, only it's for smoking weed. And the only person on it is Willie Nelson.

If you believe that passive voice is never acceptable, we can never ever be friends. Also, I might physically harm you.
You think I'm joking...

Went to the hospital last Sunday with food stuck in my esophagus, and had to get an EGD (for all you med. school types) and a biopsy of my esophagus. Well, results came back and I have a condition called Eosiniphilic Esophagitis. Not a big deal but I've gotta have another EGD or two, and hopefully I will be better soon.

| Things I Have Learned This Week: |
[16 Apr 2009|01:48am] |
|
Without a Computer, I:
1) Get ahead on my readings.
2) Go to sleep at normal times (1-2 is normal to me, okay?).
3) Have experienced this morning thing I hear so much about.
4) Am ten thousand times more productive on everything in life.
You'd think I would've figured this out in the last, oh, decade or so.

Today, after taking my final on race in Latin America, I took a long afternoon nap in which I dreamt that I was back in the lecture hall retaking my final. Only this time, Hitler was sitting in the chair next to me explaining how the extremism of his Nazi eugenics policies caused many Latin American countries to abandon their policies of "whitening" and positive eugenics.
When I woke up I thought to myself "I think I am ready to finish college now."

| History Quote of the Month. |
[15 Mar 2009|02:02am] |

"He writes the worst English that I've ever encountered. It reminds me of a string of wet sponges; it reminds me of tattered washing on the line; it reminds me of stale bean soup, of college yells, of dogs barking idiotically through endless nights. It is so bad that a sort of grandeur creeps into it. It drags itself out of the dark abysm of pish, and crawls insanely up the top most pinnacle of posh. It is rumble and bumble. It is flap and doodle. It is balder and dash."
This is a quote from...
a) the past, criticizing Warren G. Harding's speeches in an epicly 1920s way.
b) the future, angrily sprawled across the front of my soon to be turned in twenty page paper on Notchininga's map of 1837.
... or at least that's how I hope it will happen, should it happen.

Attaching the word "baby" to the beginning of a noun instantly makes said noun ten times funnier to me.

tenen non neu - duchess says |

Alone in a cold room at four in the morning, a young boy comes to the grave realization that he might have inherited his father's "air drumming" gene.
Skinny arms a-flailing, he contemplates god's cruel sense of humor.

briangotback: easton wanna play a game.
hyperion3001: of?
briangotback: this is a game where i give you a picture and you give me an artistic interpretation for that picture. how you do that is very flexible, as you can write a short story, draw an accompanying picture, write a poem, or write a few sentences about how you think this picture came about/what the characters in the picture are thinking/etc.
( hyperion3001: so, not checkers? )
