Em is adorable.
Natter 40: The Nice One
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
A friend of mine says that we should celebrate all throughout the period between the two dates.
I could get down with this (even if there are only a few days left until my hebrew b'day).
huh, so I missed the first snow of the winter. Yesterday it was over 80 here. weirdness.
I am NOT going to go to that face recognition place OR read about a pregnant 5 year old, both seem too disturbing.
LJ will not let me make locked posts from this computer (my parents' - all sorts of no good stuff). poop.
Happy birthdays!
I'm not good at competitions, especially ones I'm going to totally lose.
And people wondered why I never liked organized sports.
Help! I have one last homework for History of Math, and I don't understand it! Abstract Algebra either, but I think I have two more homeworks for that.
Emma pics have melted me.
What's the History of Math assignment, Emily? I doubt I can help with Abstract Algebra, but history I might still have insight into.

How adorable, Aimée!
I recently listened to some old school horror in audiobook form. So...this Cask of Amontillado -- strange narrative. I mean, the story goes "I took him downstairs and walled him in." I checked the original text to see if something had been lost, but no. That seems to be it. Is this a famous and well-thought of story?
The story is better if a cat gets accidentally walled in too. Um... what's the cat's name... Hermes? Pluto?

"The Black Cat" by Poe.
I read it in 7th or 8th grade.... I think it's "classic"?
An avi file is video, right? Does anyone know where I can get my hands on mp3 of the original Schoolhouse Rock stuff?
Is this a famous and well-thought of story?
It is famous - probably for playing on the walled-in, buried alive fears. I don't know if it's well regarded, but many horror stories linger in that genre's canon because they linger in the imagination rather than because they are well made. It's no "Yellow Wallpaper" or "Monkey's Paw" though.
Happy bithday, amych! I hope you get treats and coffee and more cat snuggling, and presents and LUV and cheese and fantastic meals and new gear and sumptuous bounties of all sorts.
