I am not Liz Lemon

During the summer between my sophomore and junior year of high school, I found some old sheets cut up into squares at my grammy's house. My aunt had initially planned something for them and never put it together. I started sewing the squares together that summer, and now, four summers later, I finished the quilt. It's not perfect by any means, but it's done. Unlike Liz Lemon, I finish the quilts that I start in the summer. Even if it is four summers later.

are you part of the 2% of Americans playing sports right now?

This is a fascinating graph showing how people spend their time. At approximately 2:44 PM, I, a white female between the ages of 15 and 24 seeking a bachelor's degree and employed, was engaged in computer use. I think it's striking how little time the unemployed spend volunteering and that whites and hispanics eat at traditional meal times, whereas blacks tend not to. I'm not sure what to take from that, but it sure is interesting =)

is the space pope reptillian?

I've recently discovered Futurama. A solid show that ended before it could be dragged into the ground like The Simpsons (even though there are going to be 26 new episodes sometime soon). It's full of witty one-liners and thoroughly shallow (but highly entertaining) characters. Who could ever tire of Bender's thieving ways?

I know my life is [insert disparaging adjective] when . . .

. . . I don't have a lint-roller, so I use painter's tape to remove the lint and fuzz from my black pants.

Update: Mumsy and I went to Costco tonight, and the lint-rollers eluded us there. I guess my dream of fuzz-free pants is just not meant to be.

for all my bros

I thought this was pretty funny. Sorry Mumsy and Matt, I already spoiled the fun for you.

half-way there

I am officially done with my sophomore year of college. This last semester has been the busiest, best time of my life. I'm exhausted, but I'm going to miss it. Goodbye KHvR, you've been a great place to live the last two years.

golden joy

The sun paid Michigan a visit today, and so to take advantage of it, I took a long walk with a friend. Today was a busy day, but the sunshine was a reminder that spring is coming. I get so energized by nice weather--I love it! March is almost here. February was a good but hard month and I'm not sad to be on the other side of it.
