A Little Cup of Cyanide

First off, I just have to say I have an awesome new layout ready to put up. Just as soon as I remember how I did it about two years ago. So yeah, it might be a while. And if anything looks way off in the meanwhile, that's me messing it up, probably beyond repair. Ignore it. I will be. Ignorance is sometimes good for blood pressure.

Now. I'm in a good mood. Like, Super Spectacular Dancing on the Ceiling good. If that was physically possibly. And if I wasn't terrified of heights. Only a few things could make me happy as I am right now. Moving to Florida or any equally hot place, winning the lottery, getting a Hershey's special dark chocolate bar, and the first new episode of Supernatural in. six. weeks. Narrow that down? I'm in Nowhere West Virginia where I almost fell on ice patches twice today, I only have enough money to do two loads of laundry, and sadly, no chocolate of any kind. Sigh. I'd even settle for a Milky Way.

If you’re not a total spoiler-phobe, you should check THIS out. Even if you have no idea what the hell I’m talking about. Do it. Now. I mean it. Does this sound funny to you?

Now, the name. Malleus Maleficarum. It keeps bugging me. Like I’ve heard it somewhere before. So, I looked it up, and found this site. Nifty. I would totally read it if I wasn't already procrastinating on reading Rameau's Nephew. Of course the site doesn't tell me where I've heard the word before. But then I saw the "witch hammer" thing, which just bugged me even more, because I KNOW I've heard that somewhere. So, I’m searching for god only knows what.

I ended up looking up The Crucible for some reason. It just reminded me of it, so I thought maybe looking it up would help me out or something. Of course, I kept looking up The Constable, because seriously? You really expect me to remember the name of a play I read in junior high? So I asked Jess. And I’m all, "There was this book, or maybe a play, where this girl is accused of witchcraft, but her friend was the one doing it, and there was something about a bluebird and dancing naked in the woods, and I think it was named after a bowl?" Yeah, the man is a genius. And, it didn’t help me any.

In conclusion, be prepared for me several page squee on the new episode on Thursday of Friday. It’s coming. It’ll probably be longer that this post, if the clips are anything to judge by. And, if anyone out there is super cool and could tell me how to do a cut? I’ll give you that Milky Way when I get it.

OK. So. I talked to Sarah yesterday. We don't talk much since we moved to separate suites. I miss talking to all my old suitemates.

Anyway, we stood out there in the cold by the steps and talked for over an hour. I'm not sure how much over an hour, but I do know that I had about twenty minutes to get to my next class after I got back to my room. I was supposed to have a two hour break there, where I would have been taking my early morning nap. I need my early morning nap. Eight o'clock classes are hell.

So, among the talk, we somehow started talking about how neither of us is very photogenic. Which is ridiculous, by the way, because she can so take a good picture. Me, on the other hand. Just be glad I'm not forcing my pictures on you. So I'm telling her about how the only good pictures of me are ones I take. Keep in mind that I HATE those Myspce cam whores that take at least fifty pictures of themselves a day. It must be the angle of something. I'm willing to take pictures of myself if they come out like that. Then she says how she has this one picture of her puckering her lips that is really good. So I'm like "Well, maybe you should just pucker up every time you take a picture."

This one suggestion creates a monster. A hilarious, strange, pucker-lipped (That is, if "pucker-lipped" was a word. I'm betting it's not.) monster. How many pictures could you possibly take while puckering your lips? A lot. I lost count at making snow angels while puckering.

So, I haven't been around here in a long, long time. Last September to be exact. Well, I plan on starting this up again. I haven't been writing nearly as much as I would like to since I switched my major. Which is ridiculous, I know. Just because I'm not a creative writing major anymore doesn't mean I shouldn't still write. I love writing, but after I switched, it started seeming like a chore or something. I think I lost my style from not using it enough. So my goal is to write in this thing at least once a day starting February first. Even if it's some random nothing that'
s going on in my life at th time, I'll be writing something. Yeah, I got this idea from the lovely people in fandom.

Also coming from the lovely people in fandom, I'm thinking about starting another blog to write a bit of a story every day. I'm not sure if I'm actually going to do it, but it's something I'm contemplating.
