open forum version 2.0 [12 May 2008|02:52pm]
so about four and a half years ago, i did an experiment in this journal with anonymous commenting. the results were pretty interesting so i thought i'd try it again. i realize that now there are websites devoted specifically to this sort of thing, like grouphug, but i'd like to do a little one here if y'all will indulge me. here are the copied instructions from the last time:

"basically, i want you to comment anonymously here and say anything you want. to me, to someone else, to yourself, about something in your life, something big or small, anything that's going on that you want to get out, existance in general, regrets, random minutiae, whatever. other people have done this and have gotten really interesting responses, so i want to open the forum to my extremely creative friends list."

ip logging is off. get anonymous!

so the all girls misfits choir video shoot was on monday night.

so fucking awesome.

[edit: i'm really sorry, i made the photos private for the moment out of consideration for deedee's project, but you can still see them if we are friends on flickr or i can email them to you if you'd like to see!]

[ mood | acknowledgment can't be helped ]

not to be all vague dramatic internet blog about this, but it is seriously a lot of work to be the only adult in this situation in general, and i'm not perfect. it's taking every fiber of my being to simply type this vague thing rather than stoop to the level where the bar now rests. you know? i'm really done. i could shout my most personal business from the public internet rooftops pointedly knowing who'd read it if i wanted to, but i happen to have an ounce of consideration, myself. i realize that the lack thereof in others signifies yet another symptom of times gone wrong and the expiration of my energy reserves.

my life is really good right now, i am happy. i don't feel the need to prove it to anybody, either, and that's how i know it's true.

and superficially speaking, [16 Apr 2008|11:54pm]
i now find myself in the (jen) dilemma of having to buy business casual clothes and be presentable, ugh. button up shirts give me the boob gappiest gaps, and i've never met a work pant i could be friends with. some ladies have given me helpful suggestions though, so i have to go on a SHOPPING MISSION. yuck. i know that i will end up with 1 useful piece of work attire and 20 cute polka dotted summer skirts and shirts with v-necks so deep you can see my bellybutton and other completely inappropriate things.

old navy has this "dressing for the workplace 101, you dumbass" section on their website full of button up shirts and work pants, haha. but i do want this suggested cute dress from there, and a tank top to go underneath:

other than that it'll probably be luck of the draw with some cardigans to cover my tattoo and some tights to cover my hairy legs.

in cooler news, i had all-female misfits choir rehearsal tonight with jenny and that shit ruled. YOU BEEN PISSIN!

the definition of "completely inappropriate" (as well as the definitions of "amazing" and "priceless") can be seen in this 30 second video clip i took of miguel's brother mario last night at the bucket:

i cannot stop watching this and cracking up.

and as an added bonus, here's this short but sweet gem from a majority rule show 5 years ago:

make your own and show me!

warmer weather and discussion all over the place has got me thinkin about the things i am looking forward to in the warming months! despite my hatred of sticky molasses heat and being unable to wear winter tights, i am all about:

-cold and/or frozen beverages, including: rita's, iced coffee every day, bubble tea every day [henceforth known as 'bubz' due to an exciting joint business venture with diana that i can't disclose right now], cucumber and mango margaritas from frijoles, milkshakes, and delicious chilly water.
-TUBING WEATHER!
-doing everyday activites outside on the front or back porch, like reading and eating dinner and writing and thinking and chatting
-grilling out. well, we'll see about that one
-katie visiting!!!
-roller coasters
-sun and beachdom
-camping (hopefully in western maryland at least once)
-driving with the windows down/biking/walking while pumping upbeat jamz and singing so loud
-things being in season at the farmers market

it's curtains for you, pal... unless you're me. [22 Mar 2008|02:08pm]
my new duvet cover brings out the green in mama cat's eyes! she's been hanging out in my room a ton lately, snoozing in open drawers and looking out my window. i am glad i get to be friends with her because she is an amazing lady who wears fuzzy pantaloons.

the other day i was watching a short lived scifi series from the mid 90s and noticed that a guest star had also been on stargate sg-1, so i immediately called my mom to tell her about it and she was as excited as i was.

i realize that cats and nerdiness being my top journal updating points says a few things about my life currently, but i am pretty into it.

here are some pictures! there are even more on my flickr that i won't post to clog up your friends page.

free ritas day is one of the best holidays EVER.


lenore at the yabba pot sharing the most amazing dessert ever with me. they take a frozen banana and put it through a machine, and it comes out the consistency of ice cream. nothing else added. JUST A BANANA. i am in love.

let's do it right under the streetlight [14 Dec 2007|12:34am]
[ music | alkaline trio ]

here are a couple of things i am really into at the moment:

let's start with the band cake, which i took joe to as his christmas present on monday (yes, i saw cake in the year 2007). i still think they're a good ass band and it was super enjoyable. they opened with FRANK SINATRA! and finished the night with a black sabbath cover...??. too bad the tour was called "UNLIMITED SUNSHINE TOUR" and it was at daughters of the american revolution constitution hall, which is where my high school graduation was! hahahahahaha.


okay now let's talk about jim halpert.

i just got into the office like a week ago and i'm only partway into season two but jim seriously floors me. every time he looks at the camera it's like i am looking into a basilisk's eyes through nearly headless nick, d'ya feel me?!?!?!?!!! so endearing. i already heard the spoiler* that him and pam do get together eventually but i'm glad because my heart has been hurting watching their junk unfold so far.

*not really a spoiler because it already happened, i am just way late.

LASTLY, IN STAR TREK/BATTLESTAR GALACTICA NEWS, nana visitor is gonna be a recurring character in season 4 of BSG! best freakin' newssssss. she was one of my favorite characters on my favorite trek series.

hello friends, please help me by posting your useful grad school-finding websites! i'm tryin'a be a M.A. lady up in this wintry piece.

also post any schools you're aware of that have good grad programs related to the following:
-cult film studies, like this: click
-cinema studies, like this: click
-pop culture/communications
-critical studies related to women's studies and communications, like this: click
-anything theory-based (not practical) related to television, film, and radio studies
-image preservation, like this: click

at this point i don't care where they are as long as i can find some i like, BUT if you somehow have a whole trove and want to narrow it down, i'd prefer in a large city, and probably in the USA for funding purposes.

THANKSSSSSSSS!
