Friday night may have been the official anti-Valentine's day party, but last night was the actual one for me. Yep, me and two of my single guy friends stayed in, smoked pot, and played video games (on an LCD projector that was conveniently "borrowed" from my prestigious university.) Truly the most anti-Valentine's day activity I can think of. But hey, it's a big money saver,...

Hello? Dr. Bruce Banner, scientist extraordinare? My friend has a super-bright (the technical term, not just an exaggeration) TV projector with a Gamecube attatched. He and my roomate once played over six hours of the new Mario Kart game. It's fucking sick.
Gatorade + Vodka = 
So last night I went to the bkfreak's super-cool SGNY party, and got to see all of the cool folks that are SGNY. You know who you are.
However, there was a slight problem with my master plan for the evening, as highlited by the first line of this journal entry. My plan was that I would buy some tasty beer...

hehehe. i've made worse combos. that is funny though. "Putting the liberal back in liberal media bias." I think that's going to be my new slogan from now on.
I've decided that it's fine to give my articles a left-wing slant, since I figure a conservative columnist would do the same. So there. Take that, Bush. (I'm sure he's quaking.) And Sean seems to think that editorializing a bit is OK, so it's fine...

Well, I've returned from Vermont, alive and unharmed (save a little bit of windburn.)
The trip was really really fun, each day was better than the last. I went up on Saturday afternoon with my friend Vera from Philly, and we got into South Burlington around midnight. Feeling like we needed to get a drink, we asked the night clerk at the Best Western where...

Running to Moby's "Play", eh? I will try this. So how is the SOLO editor position going?

hey cupcake!
RE: the guys starting a fight with you *or trying to*
have you ever seen that episode of the simpsons where lisa kept getting beat up by that red headed girl. and she found out it was because she was a nerd *not to call you a nerd or anything
* . she did some experiment and found out that the sole reason the bullies beat up the nerds was cos of something in their sweat (the way it smelled or something).
**which would also explain why superficial gets into fights** hehehe
</rant>
anyways, im glad to hear you had fun up in VT!
and thankyou for the b.day wishes
any news on yr co-editor??

Notice: I am leaving town this afternoon and will not be back until early Wednesday evening. So unless my coeditor, thesleepthief, shows up, the politics section of the newswire will not be updated or edited until I return.
So yeah, I'm off to go skiing in Vermont for the next few days, which I'm very much looking forward to. Three days of skiing, and...

OK, it's way late so this entry will probably have to be pretty short (yeah, right, like the rest of them?)
Anyway, today was relatively unproductive for me. I woke up late and rushed to the lab to get my staining done on the cultured cells that I mentioned yesterday. I was looking for expression of two different things - the intracellular domain of the...

The SG news section is now up and running! So submit a bunch of articles to politics, so I don't have to keep writing them all .
Seriously, I think it's gotten off to a great start, in the span of less than one day there are a bunch of great bits posted on there, and Sean, s5 and Olivia have already fixed...

Ah, I never knew SG had a political forum. Thanks. Anyhow, I looked at the hater's profile and he live in Jersey! I just wanted to let the kids in New York that they should register. Those damn Republicans are just so good at provoking my outrage.
corso:
Kipnis's book sounds great. I think it would be fantastic for somebody around here to interview her.
Well, this has got to be some kind of record. From SG n00b to staff member in a little under two and a half months. 
Anyway, if you have no idea what I'm talking about, I've been officially accepted as a politics / international affairs editor for the upcoming news section (along with the lovely RxQueen, one of the new music editors.) What this...

Well done, well done!
"Look's like somebody's got a case of the Mondays" - God, that is the best line from Office Space. I'm feeling a tad run down, after only getting a few hours of sleep and having had a good time all weekend. I think I'm going to get to bed a bit early tonight, for a change.

Well, it's been a few days since I last updated my journal. Friday was a lot of fun, I had a slow day at work so I took everyone's suggestion and decided to apply for the editor position here. Here's the paragraph that I submitted:

Good luck on the position. I hear dinner is at six on Friday, I shall bring some pre show aroma therapy. I think it will be Hellen, Dave, and I for dinner. Her sister and boyfriend will only be going to the show. Why would anyone have a problem with drinking in the afternoon?
