If you could look like anything...anything at all....what would you look like? I'd be the wind.
...........It's easy to be someone's friend when all you need is someone to console you. It's much harder to be there for them when they're happy all the time.
.............Even when I say nothing, it's a beautiful use of negative space.

my brother said
I've kind of got nothing tonight. It's weird, 'cause my life is incredibly busy right now, but I can't think of anything interesting to blog about. I'm just running around a lot and getting home at 10 and wanting to do nothing but go to sleep, when I have to get on the computer and write something.
Oh I know something interesting. Reminder for tomorrow: talk about the presentation given at Tuesday's EWB meeting. That was pretty awesome.

have a ball
I love that I'm 26 and I still wake up in the middle of the night in a frenzy because I realized I missed a day in a blogging contest. Is this what it's like to be an adult in the 21st century?

the mother of all things
I met the boyfriend's dad for the first time ever tonight! He sounds EXACTLY like the boyfriend's impression of him. Good to know that boy is good for something.
Also, turns out he (the dad) is friends with the guy who runs my entire division at work. Hopefully nothing detrimental happened in their friendship that will make my namedropping end badly.
Oh also he's a really cool guy and I'm glad I'm not going to have to go through the whole ordeal of not liking my significant other's parents. That must be AWFUL.

good ol' days
I took the day off of work today to judge semester-long projects for IIT students. Not only was I done by 1:30 and got to go home, the presentations were really good! There was one sponsored by Exelon (biased, I know) about building greenhouses on site to put the thermal energy to use, and grow vegetables instead of just dumping the heat somewhere. I didn't get to judge that one, but it was impressive none the less.

him not you
a text I sent iain tonight:
"Some black guy just stopped me on the street, gave me a speech about how he's always wanted to get with a white girl, and asked me for my number."
And he WONDERED why he couldn't get any! Well, I'm glad to say I still pass SOMEONE'S standards (I mean, besides my boyfriends', which are pretty much the same).

leave your man at home
this probably holds true more often than just tonight, but I REALLY hope my appendix doesn't burst in my sleep.

thumbtack
I was supposed to hear by today whether or not the IRS accepts my taxes, and I haven't. They'd better tell me first thing in the morning if they don't want to cause a heart attack! And if I DO have a heart attack, I'd better survive so I can sue those bastards.

but I don't want to
sorry, I'm tired today. All I want to do is sit around and finish this season of Buffy (only 2 left!), but I should probably go to bed so I'm somewhat useful at the office tomorrow.
