Hosting a party with my roommates (don’t worry, I’m not in charge of anything food-related)
January 2009
GUESS WHO JUST ELIMINATED A WHOLE BOX FROM HER PILE OF UNPACKED BOXES FROM MOVING IN SEPTEMBER? YES IT WAS ME.
Dear Parents,
Please don’t take passing jokes in reference to a movie as evidence that I am snorting cocaine.
Love,
Eliza
PS - I miss you! I’ll come visit next month, probably!
gifparty:
YES YOU ARE.
Choices for tonight:
Watch some episodes of Mad Men that I’ve seen twice already
Read The Road and have nightmares again
Watch Twilight for the third time
Clean apartment in preparation for Jen’s party on Saturday
DECISIONS DECISIONS.
Cara and Eliza love Fmylife.com
Cara: this site is amazing
Cara: bringing people with horrible misfortunate together
Cara: to bask in eachothers pain
Eliza: i'm so basking
Cara: ditto
Eliza: i want to put their pain in a hot tub and turn on the rotating colored lights and the jets and sit in the corner seat that everyone else always wants
Cara: that is a very good way to describe how this website feels

Man, if I have to watch another movie or TV show where something sad happens to Callum Blue, I’m going to have permanent damage to my heart.
There is a small chance that I’ve been watching kitty cam for 3 hours. http://tinyurl.com/8kcjgd
Thumbsucker
Just finished Thumbsucker. Halfway through the movie I found myself thinking, “I don’t get it.” By the end, I figured out that there was just nothing to get. It’s a terribly pretentious documentation of a terribly pretentious batch of characters. From the soundtrack to the purposefully ironic stunt casting to the fucking slow motion shots, Thumbsucker is just absolutely...
Skins season 3
I APPROVE THUS FAR.
Just watched The Wackness. It’s my new 3rd-favorite movie. Sorry, Batman, but I’ve never cried at a movie’s awesomeness before. I think I’m in love. With a movie. I want to give it a hug. I want to glue some fur on it and stuff it with cotton balls and cuddle with it while I’m reading. I want to knit it into some socks and wear them until they fall off. I want to...
Mmm, baby smell is the best of smells. →

Q: Why are Brookline and Brooklyn spelled so similarly? Are they really the same place, but when it moved to N.Y., it had to change its name to something cooler? — Posted by Elisabeth John Hodgman: Brookline is an English compound word that evolved from the town’s original name, “Muddy River.” Brooklyn is an Anglicization of its namesake, the Dutch town of Breukelen. Brooklin is a town in Maine,...
Another Cinderella Story...
…WAS SO GOOD.
YES I WATCHED IT. YES I ENJOYED IT. YES I WILL PROBABLY BUY IT ON DVD.

mlkj day
purplepotato:
On Monday/Tuesday, I wonder if anyone is going to talk about what MLKj would say about Obama’s inauguration…
Oh man! It would be so neat if they did, though.
So I guess Waxbama just isn’t the same →
Quick plug for a real-life project (in Boston) →
Someone just updated YWCHB. It couldn’t have been me, but I guess y’all should maybe check it out. http://yeswecanholdbabies.wordpress.com

Who’s excited for Tuesday? →
What a difference 4 years makes… →
Excuse me, young one? →
Hey remember that time that it was 19 degrees...
AND MY APARTMENT STILL DIDN’T HAVE HEAT???
Oh this is so awesome. I have to get off the computer before my hands turn purple (they’re currently blue, but it’s only a matter of time).
Looks like I’ll be watching Mad Men in bed under 4 blankets until call time for ARTiculation. …Okay I guess this isn’t that bad.
