You guys I am still coming down. Like, holy shit. Me and Layla saw it and were basically just babbling incoherent messes stumbling out of the theater. We were like the kids in Jesus Camp, except speaking in even MORE tongues. WORSHIP AT THE ALTAR OF MARVEL FOR IT WILL NOT ABANDON YOU.

LITERALLY A RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE )

You know, I'd forgotten that I've been looking forward to this movie for months. I'd forgotten that I cared when they cast it, I'd forgotten that each newly released publicity photo sent a pleasant little chill down my spine.

This isn't a review but I don't know what else to call it )

this needs to be a separate entry

omg also, because I can't think about positive things until I brain-dump all the negative ones:

I actually entered the Nickelodeon Writer's Fellowship thing this year. You have to submit a comedy spec of a show already on the air, so I actually found some time somehow to write a 36-page Parks & Rec script in this quagmire of a month. And I submitted it.

I spent $40 at Kinko's to print it because I'm a moron, but I'm OFFICIALLY doing something about starting a writing career.

So I just wanted to say that too, both to brag about how awesome I am and to remind myself that the only time I feel the pinch to be productive is when I literally have no time to be.

LOL MY CAR

YOU GUYS I LEGIT THINK MY CAR IS ON A LONG-CON QUEST TO KILL ME a la CHRISTINE.

This time, instead of my accelerator NOT WORKING suddenly, it WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN AND STAYED THERE!

ugh I hate this shit )

so last week I took my car into the shop because it's leaking power steering fluid. Whatever, this isn't about the shop.

Since my car was out of commission, I had to get around via other means, ie the bus. The bus in LA isn't bad, it's just sort of like "...but I have a car, why would I take the bus" American-white-middle-upper-class privilege going on. There's actually ONE BUS that runs straight from my corner to the mall in Burbank that I would never have known about had my car not broken down.

Anyway, I go to the B&N to hang out until my car is fixed and I figure I should get some cash so I can take the bus. I go to the Starbucks to get change for a five.

Oh, sorry, I can't open the register unless you buy something.

Okay, what's the cheapest thing--A BANANA.

So I bought a banana for a dollar and got four back. I stuck it in my purse and I swear to God I meant to eat it.

Last night, I feel some slimy liquid on my pants. "Great," I think, "another $1 lotion I can't not buy from Bath and Body works exploded."

I reach in my purse and pull out the blackest, most gelatinous banana I have ever seen.

It got over everything and I am still too scared to clean out my purse b/c I might have to throw it away. Which is actually okay, I bought a really cute purse over break and I've been meaning to sell the other one on ebay but I haven't got around to it.

Either way, I'm mad that something I was forced to do b/c of stupid rules actually impacted me more negatively than not doing it at all and I wanted to write a mid-length LJ entry for once :)

THINK POSITIVE

Did I even say I got that internship?

No I didn't say it.

I got that internship, I start tomorrow.

So I mean, ALL the sky isn't falling. Like 95% of it is, but there is a little ray of hope still up there somewhere.

bummed

So I guess it's time, once again, for my post-holiday-home-trip self-assessment and evaluation.

This is even more pathetic and self-pitying than usual )

Anyway, like I said, pretty bummer. I hope things turn around.

I want to share something with all of you that is very precious, and possibly personal, and may be hard to like, organize? Whatever.

Okay so, as with most recent entries because I am a dumbass tool, I have to start with reddit.

Fucking reddit.

somehow this entry goes from reddit retribution to religious ecstacy )

I love geology!

So my latest existential drama derives from GEOLOGY!

I always thought geology was that dumb chapter we never got to in the back of our junior high science textbooks, but it turns out volcanoes and earthquakes and tsunamis and shit are just as cool UNDER THE SURFACE as they are ON THE SURFACE. And cool's probably the wrong word to describe them but you get what I mean.

Okay I'm sorry I need to start this entry a little bit earlier. Like, last year.

WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE, but maybe that's okay )

I don't know. Those are my thoughts from the last week.

Update and stuff

Sorry that I haven't posted in like a geological era. I'm still a little sore from losing that post from two weeks ago or whatever, and thus a little nervous about trying to post again. I think if I spent more than a half hour on an LJ post and lost it twice in a row I would really lose it.

ANYWAY, the biggest news I would like to share with you is my new apartment!!

NAMELY: I'M FINALLY FUCKING HAPPY. )

I have one more box to unpack and figure out where to keep everything, and I am HERE. And hopefully I'll be here for a while :)
