Debaser--yeah, that's actually happened at my house before. Found it dead (thank god) in the toilet bowl.
When you lift the lid first thing in the morning, that is not what you want to see. Especially when it's a bathroom on the second floor.
I'm looking at $60-70k in student loans when I get out of school. Compared to that, dropping $200 on a new camera doesn't seem so bad. Rainy day fund? Hah!
I wanted to be a mermaid. Then a doctor. (I used to read medical books for fun. No, seriously.)
Now I just want to not be a hack when I get out of college.
I love small-town America, New England-style with town commons and parades and fireworks. I love the highways and byways. I love the warm and fuzzy patriotic feeling that I get on the Fourth of July.
And apple pie. I really, really love apple pie.
Pumpkin, too.
Another vote for Vermont. They're all dirty hippies over there. And it's not illegal to be naked in public. (That's one of the first things they teach you at my streak-happy college in NH.)
Also check out western Massachusetts, especially the Amherst area. (Dunno about the cost of living, though.)
Heh. I've always had trouble following directions (turning left instead of right, etc.) but I never made the correlation that it was due to my being lefthanded.
And I can't tie my shoes the same way everyone else does.
But I have no problem doing any righthanded thing backward without thinking about it. However, whenever someone mentions that I'm doing it "weird", then I stumble and have trouble.
Oh man. I'm totally using that next time I need to inflict a little guilt trip on my brother.

Yeah, that's an amazing song (especially for the clip at the beginning). Hip-Hopera on the whole is really good. I dig their other albums, too.

I saw them tonight (in NH). It was amazing. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me, but they looked something similar to this.

You think Worcester sucks? Try Fitchburg. Sweet Jesus, that city is a cesspool.

Nicely done... wish it was longer, though.
