Michael: You're stoned and you're late. You were supposed to arrive at this location at eight thirty dash nine o'clock.

Harold: What I am, Michael, is a 32 year-old, ugly, pock marked Jew fairy, and if it takes me a little while to pull myself together, and if I smoke a little grass before I get up the nerve to show my face to the world, it's nobody's god damned business but my own. And how are you this evening?

Is it too early in the morning for Sly & the Family Stone?

It's currently 7:50, I have been up since about 6:30, and get this, I don't have class until 9:30. That's right, I have become a morning person. This is something Jodi and I always talked ...

When I blow my nose I get dizzy.

Thanks for nothing, head cold. But seriously, on my way to class this afternoon, I was jamming to the Cranberries as is often the case. I parked my car and turned the engine off mid-Ode to My ...

I don't pop my cork for every guy I see.

My 21st birthday is tomorrow. I am trying not to be very excited, but the truth is...I really, really am; not that I have any major plans for going out to bars at midnight and doing power hour,...

No one's getting fat, except Mama Cass...and me, apparently.

I always mean to post in here, I really do, but the truth is, I could not figure it out. I just couldn't remember how I did it back in February of '05. The reason I am posting is that yesterday ...

Let's give it a try...

Well...I'm still getting used to this whole "My Space" thing. It is fun, but I can't decide if it is for me yet. I am really set in my ol' Jive Journal ways. Let's see...what to talk about... ...
