Dread Pirate Rachel

No-one would surrender to the Dread Pirate Westley.

About Me

"I am no-one to be trifled with. That is all you ever need know." Not really. I am everybody's favorite pirate. I have a not-so-secret ambition to one day rule the universe. I cherish a crush on Steve Carell, as long as he's not playing Michael Scott. I also have a well-publicized interest in Gerard Butler, but I liked him before "300," so the rest of you phans can bugger off! I also am a closet (HA!) Stargate fan, so don't go making any disparaging comments about Richard Dean Anderson..

My Interests

Pillage and plunder. That's why my income is so high! I like video editing. A lot. And archaelogy, English literature, American foreign policy, music, and chocolate.

I'd like to meet:

C. S. Lewis, Oscar Wilde, and the Tooth Fairy. Also Jason Momoa and Thor, Supreme Commander of the Asgard Fleet. BWAHAHA!!!

Music:

Whatever drowns out the voices in my head.

Movies:

Without a Clue, A Knight's Tale, and the original Pink Panther movies are the great influences in my life. And of course my theme movie (they made it just for me, you know) THE PRINCESS BRIDE!

Television:

I've given up on TV.

Books:

Mostly textbooks. Lots and lots of textbooks.

Heroes:

Bart Roberts, the other Dread Pirate. C. S. Lewis. Ansel Adams. My dad (the best!).

My Blog

I once believed that it was possible to escape a hideous wedding.

Then I saw a Thomas Kincaid painting, and all hope for beauty left me.

Ok, I'll post a real one this time

Have you ever noticed that you can smell everything better when it rains? You walk across the campus, starting at the library and going to the Science building. On the way, you smell bacon from t...

Well, I think it's about time to post another bloggie.

Or maybe not. I have class in five minutes. HA! Faked you out!

My hair is driving me nuts; it keeps getting caught in my backpack. The question is,  shall I  cut it all off and rid myself of the  annoyance? Or shall I leave it, wear it up all the t...

My psychotically screwed up week

I don't think I've ever posted this before. My week SUCKS! It all starts with Monday. Monday is detestable for the mere fact that it is Monday, and also, it follows the weekend, so not only am I not u...

A-haunting We Will Go...

Just in case I wasn't weird enough, I did something last night that is completely unique in our family history. I think I'll write it into my narrative paper when I turn in the final copy. Andy picked...

Owee, owee, owee!

ARGH! My wisdom teeth are killing me. Death to the fiends. Anyway, I'm just marauding around the library before World Lit, so any poor fool who happens upon my blog will feel the full force of my bore...

With hair like this, who needs enemies?

My hair is trying to kill me. When I woke up this& morning (I suppose it was still morning), my hair was securely wrapped around my throat, in what I can only assume was an attempt to exact revenge fo...
