Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I want to start a gang and USE all those Snopes things. It would totally fuck with people.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have to remember to shop at Lord & Taylor more often, it is so nice and quiet in there. It makes me feel like a semi-wealthy little old lady out for the day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You know what I love? An email from my boss that says, "We really need to get X, Y, and Z finished." And this is the first I'm hearing about X, Y, OR Z. @@

OMG, Lord & Taylor in the middle of a workday is the BEST. I got the best customer service in my life there.

Also, where would a person buy a little apron? I didn't see any at the costume place. I'm thinking I could put accessories over my current clothes to do 50s housewife, tying Halloween into my homework.

Honestly, listening to my friends who are also full-time students but have much more "real" jobs, I'm glad to be here where I don't give a shit. At least I'm not overly burdened with stuff to do.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Le nubian-- I will do that.

I mean really-- do we need to go around scaring the crap out of people. I understand being cautious, and some of the guidelines in the email (like being aware of your surroundings) make sense, but I feel that things like this just lead to people leading panicky lives. it is the same damned thing as the bird flu-- it is all over the news scaring the crap out of people-- they are all calling into wear I work (we give flu shots) looking for the "bird flu vaccine". Now there are about 30 billion other, much more probable, ways that these people could get sick and die-- but they are now just focused on the "bird flu".

well if one had planned ahead one would get one from me. I have purple, yellow, or turquoise gingham if you have my keys.

Otherwise, I'd try a vintage store.

If one had planned ahead, one would not have been looking at one's reflection in a store window, trying to figure out what "costume" one's regular clothes could turn into.
