once again, i’m feeling lazy, so this entry will be mostly pictures and un-ordered lists (remember that from mgs351? -, etc). ok i lied, these are mostly little blurbs rather than lists. and the one list is ordered… its numbered. and no pictures. whatever. i should have just deleted and re-written the first sentence, but instead i just keep writing. wow.

IN OTHER NEWS
my contacts are really messed up so i often have to take one out in the middle of the day (usually while on campus). this has resulted in much one-eyed driving and many more headaches than necessary. i don’t really know what to do since… well i just don’t know what to do. i guess i could call my optometrist. nah.

i am performing tomorrow night (well tonight since its now 1am) at the CFA in a poetry collaboration project. thing. with dancers. and poetry. and weirdness. at least our dance has music… some of the pieces are just people reading a poem and dancers dancing. i’m not autistic artistic enough for those type of performances. i would probably just giggle. i guess i’m not mature enough.

PODCASTS I HAVE BEEN ENJOYING LATELY
i have recently discovered the majesty of podcasts. i have always detested them based on their name alone, i thought they were stupid because they were another corny mutation of iGhey slash Apple/Mac lingo. but now i have fully embraced their corniness (and free of chargeness) and am now a believer. i have seen the light.

so for all of you (equal: no one) who also enjoy podcasts, i will list the ones that i have found particularly interesting. they are all based around my driving habits since that is when i listen to them. because i’m a huge dork and like to listen to audiobook-ish things. apparently the parental-o-meter from last entry didn’t gauge horrible interests because then i would totally be kenzilla. audiobooks and all. (oooh unordered list!!! see i didnt lie)

  • Grammar Girl – because haven’t you ever wondered if the past tense of hang is hanged or hung?? (see episode 34) her episodes are short and sweet, meaning i can listen to a whole one from the CFA to Hadley (about 4-5 minutes)
  • NPR: Selected Shorts – because i like stories. each episode generally has two to three short stories, usually one contemporary and one not-so much. i usually like the first story better, but maybe it has something to do with my attention span. i listen to these from my aparment to north campus (about 15-20 minutes per story).
  • Savage Lovecast – because dan savage cuts through the bullshit and tells a-holes when they’re being a-holes, etc. and i enjoy listening to him cut people down. i am evil. these usually take two trips (to north and back, or to pilates and then to north)

those are three that i’m sold on for now. i will let you know when i like a new one. cause i know you’re waiting with baited breath. ooh podcast. so sexy. and now a random cat picture because i said i didn’t have pictures and now aren’t you surprised?
