Miniturization:A mark of technological superiority

About Me

Fucking hell.... *big sigh* This is under protest. Shut up, you. Some of the people I know don't have a LiveJournal, so I caved and got one of these. Plus my OC tendencies are my Anti-Drug, and it gives me something else to do while I'm at work. I'm interested to see if any old classmates or Athenians can manage to find me. I'll probably only post party announcements, so if you really are interested enough to give a rat's ass, or any other rodent body part, get a goddamned LiveJournal , bitches!
I did kung fu and I can legally marry people in the state of Ohio. Someday I hope to combine the two, and maybe add some pirates in the mix. I'm currently a grad student at Kent State for Library Science. I also want a pony.
A monologue Dave Espionage wrote for me:
"What, me? Oh, I was just reading a twenty volume dissertation on the theories of cross-referencing religions in Egypt with various recipes involving popcorn, what, oh you like me? Really? Are you sure? You didn't notice that all your clothes came off a bit ago, did you? Oh well, that happens now and then. Have you seen my collection of books? They're organized by levels of eroticism and effectiveness of language. Oh shit, you took my clothes off. Well, time to get the toy box."
I'm rotating my Top Whatever Friends, so everyone should get a chance for MySpace lovin's.

OU Nostalgia

Cary, my gay Jewish mother and friend down the hall, stopped by earlier, and somehow we got to talking about OU and about one of the art professors there, Aethelred Eldridge.  This then led to me...

In Memorium

Dear Kari, Since I didn't find this until too late, I can't leave a message on your page. Last time I saw you was at Jacob's more than a year ago where we chatted for a hot minute. Wish we could ...
