brian boitano is skating to “imagine” on the tv. i think “real love” is my favorite lennon song. regina spektor did a beautiful cover of it for the darfur album that i would like to have played at my wedding one day. i also have decided that when i die i want the song “nobody has to stay” by mirah played at my funeral.
i enjoy random e-mails from steve, but i feel like a source of constant disappointment.
today:my grades for this semester were posted. i made all a’s. i only mention this because it may be the first time i made all a’s in college. it isn’t because i am not capable-i am fucking brilliant-but i tend to not show up to classes that bore me. most classes bore me, and as that stands, i have a habit of making b’s in easy easy classes because i hate them. the worst was when i made a b in my speech class. i made almost perfect scores on every speech in the class, but failed to turn in an assignment where i was supposed to watch lucy baxley give a speech. i just didn’t feel like doing it.
this semester i think the only reason i tried was because i had a bastard of a u.s. religious history professor whose tests were so unreasonable that he had to curve the grades. then he bitched that he was “being santa clause” when he gave us an extra credit test, on which i got the highest grade in the class which is why i was one of maybe 5 in the class to get an a (besides the history nerds who don’t have better things to do like sleep and drink the occasional beer).
next semester is my last on campus. i reiterate: glory. there is some weezer song that eludes to the sort of glory i feel. there is also a radiohead song on ok computer, but steve refuses all things radiohead..just like my boyfriend. speaking of dirty dan-we had a fight a few nights ago because i wanted to watch chicago. he refused on the basis that he said he hated musicals. i told him that it was stupid to say you hate an entire genre of things. i don’t like horror movies, but i do enjoy the shining/the omen. the argument continued, and i, as usual, won..sort of.
we made a deal. we are watching chicago soon on the grounds that i will have to be entirely nude during the course of the film, and he gets to drink 2 beers.
i wore a dress to work today. running, lunges, and squats have rendered my legs shapely sexual objects. i still can’t lose any weight on a scale, but at least i am not pregnant.
tonight sir wesley and myself hit the town as two giddy girlies on the lam.

this was a really funny post, for lots of reasons, mostly the “sexual objects” bit.
Steve refuses lots of things, ho ho. Just last night he refused something (but, as you may have guessed, he still can’t say no to the cock). That’s just Steve I guess.
Danny is my hero, btw.

How insufferable of me! I forgot to tell you: to make private posts, you merely click on the “add password’ or some such label (one of those little affairs with the blue backgrounds on the left, bar-shaped) and you just plug in a password–try “termites”–j/k.
plug in a password and it privatizes it. It may, as my computer does, ask you if you REALLY want to navigate away from the page–click NO, as you will lose your entire post if you navigate away. I think it means you have double-clicked it when you do that. But yeah, it’s all right there on the create post page. Booooiii

Real Love is probably my favorite Lennon song as well. As long as we are talking solo work. Religious History of America?! Did you learn about them there Mormons?

WRT to the blue-backgrounded labels: I said they are, quote: “On the left”
How insufferable of me! They are on the right.

This is just a general comment not really directed at anyone, but I really want to throw Robin off a cliff. That would be very sufferable.
Hailey, if anything, I’m the disappointment. I often ask but rarely tell and rarely carry on from the last email.
I found your compromise very amusing (and desirable). I didn’t care for Chicago but I like musicals.

Whoa, wait. What about just “Love”. “Love” is also nominated for your favorite lennon song. By me. Yeah, its actually second to “Real love” for me, too.
I knew sean would reply to this post as soon as i read “Real Love”.
December 17th, 2007 at 8:31 AM
i mean, real love is the best kind of love, right? better than general love, yes?
and sean, yes, i learned abounding amounts about mormonism and other american religions. i actually did the best on the portion of things i was tested on about mormonism. that is probably because the names were all so weird.
i am very much a deist.
we watched chicago last night, and danny admitted, that, as musicals go, it wasn’t half bad. he said he enjoyed the press conference scene (where everyone is a puppet), and the sexy outfits. and his budweisers of course.
