Hey, let's play a game!

It's called Things Alison Does Not Have, But Certainly Wishes She Had. You'll all love playing; I promise.

It goes like this.

Here's what I wish I had: One functional 14" G4 iBook with a working hard drive!

Here's what I do have: One not-so functional 14" G4 iBook, with a hard drive that decided it would be funny...

Your tireless dedication to the cause is noted and appreciated.

Buck up, young solider, we've all gone without the internet from time to time.

I honestly can't recall the last time my tongue felt so raw.

I spent a lot of time today drinking soy milk out of the carton.

A customer asked me a few days ago if I wanted to buy some crickets off of him. At first I assumed that this was some strange, hip new lingo for a drug I'm not well-versed in, and then I saw the plastic bag of live crickets in his left hand....

Once you've completed your degree, you should do **exactly and only** what you want for at LEAST five years.

She Blinded Me With Science

Italian status: Completed.

Vancouver: Rolled out of bed, as hungover as a loon from the demon combination of gin, juice, Batman, and a gentle, unexpected boy keeping me up until sunrise. Slaughtered my irrational fears of unknown transit routes by taking the ferry and bus by myself. Travelling alone is lonely, in a way, and perfectly fine in another. I...

huck:
thanks for voting! ol' laughing Lenny is sure kicking ass so far.

re: Slapstick - i really only went for this one because it was published around the same time as Slaughterhouse-Five and Breakfast Of Champions, though i only just got into Vonnegut and i reckon anything would please me. frankly i'm his little bitch at the moment. biggrin

have you read his Timequake? that is a mockery of the concept of a novel, in the best way of course.

which humbling moment of mine was it you liked? i totally relate to yours; corporeality can suck my balls. heh.
aeres:
Yes! I love that book and the others in the series as well.

My weekend was alot of sitting around the apartment and walking around the town. Nothing happened and nothing got done, really.

First, the somewhat trite stuff.

My Italian final exam is on Friday and I'm not ready for it. I've been studying a little, but I don't think it's enough.

I'm going to Vancouver this weekend. Science World, rock!

I enjoyed Batman. I want to do Cillian Murphy right in the face. He has such ridiculously beautiful eyes.

I bought strawberries today. And red &...

It's distressing how the scents of our memories can be so much stronger than the images that come to us. Touch is always the first to fade, then the taste of their lips and skin, then to sight and how we distort and change our vision of them as they disappear over the horizon of our lives.

Yet odours remain. Trinkets keep them, tokens for slot machine emotions that we never win.

Smelling CKOne on anyone still wrenches me...even though it's not quite the same because of what she added to it, it's enough.

The only thing we can do is make newer, stronger potions for our noses to cherish...

Summer is good for that.

There's something vaguely comforting- and at the same time, disconcerting- about elevators. Travelling up through the belly of a building, all of its innards splayed out a few inches from your body, your feet level on moving ground that appears to stand still. That whir of movement as you pass my romanticized versions of life in an apartment building: the elevator drowns out the loud...

Looks like you were inside looking out again.... surreal
I actually just saw Batman today and have to say that it does not dissapoint. the movie captures a pretty raw aspect of the character unlike the previous ones. I wouldn't even catergorize this one with the other Batman movies.

I don't find elevators comforting whatsoever.

So, there isn't much to say these days. My life is comprised of the same things it always is- meandering walks downtown, spending time with most of the people I love, reading, schooling, writing letters, watching movies, cooking, and shooting the shit with my roommate. Nothing ever changes, but nothing ever stays the same.

now the writers can say, "we were right all along

I have never been much of a caffeine fiend, so it takes about two cups of coffee to have my brain reeling and my body moving like a jitterbug on methamphetamines.

I could tell you about how I actually like it when men stop and take a few minutes out of their days to talk to an average-looking girl behind the cash register about the...
