Backstory: I attended a benefit dinner with my dad on Friday night, and the dinner was to benefit a local school for special-needs children. There were a variety of party favors on the tables, including my new friend, Steve. I think this picture particularly shows off Steve’s ferociousness:
Isn’t he the coolest? He’s like a maraca—I’m pretty sure he’s filled with beans and made of plastic soda bottles. HE HAS GOOGLY EYES. Steve is the coolest.
I am overjoyed that it is just shy of 6 pm and the SUN IS STILL OUT.
I feel like doing a little dance. In fact, I’m going to do a little dance. Excuse me.
UPDATE: And Sixteen Candles is on!! Although I’ve seen both it and Pretty in Pink, I prefer this one. Classic teen love.
My site is the first result for a Google search of both phbbt and serious lack of motivation.
This is proof: my blog is a slacker!
Yesterday, I received a letter from GW that accompanied a copy of last fall’s alumni magazine.
I’m happy GW remembers me and is continuing to woo me via US mail.
I’m unhappy that no one else is doing likewise—namely, Northwestern, whose admissions packet is still MIA.
Also, Mr. Angst appears to have succumbed to the vile cold I had two weeks ago. He’s been pretty much out of it all weekend—but I guess it’s better that he can recoup on Saturday and Sunday than miss work, right? Doesn’t make the loss of a weekend any easier, of course.
At any rate, I’ve been sort of low key as a result—doing some reading (Book #2 is sort of dense, but terribly interesting, so I’m reading it very closely), cooking (yummy pot roast yesterday), and paperwork (taxes almost complete; waiting only on my investment information).
Basically, what I’m saying is that I haven’t had much to write about. I figure it’s better to write interesting and inspired posts than to ramble without point, so I’ve been avoiding rambling without point.
I do have a picture I’ll be sharing soon—it’s of my new friend Steve, who is a lion, and he’s fierce.
