My momma hurt her knee. She can’t walk on it, so i’m the proxy for her. She keeps telling me things to bring her one at a time so i have to mimic her way of flitting through the house, too. All the while she keeps insisting that she is falling apart. I have to keep telling her, “no, no, you’re not. You aren’t even that old.” And because of this magazine article...

My mother sneezed so violently that her sunglasses flew off her face.

There are sticks of gum in the right pocket of every jacket i own.

My dad turned on Boston Legal, a show that i know nothing about, an hour or so ago. I sat down to watch, and was really surprised and happy to see that actress Kay Panabaker (Disney Channel star and sister of other Disney Channel star Danielle Panabaker) playing a girl with HIV suing her school for their abstinence-only program, which taught that condoms don’t work. It was pretty sweet. If...
Everyone on Secret Life of an American Teenager is such a dickwad. Everything is bad about that show.

As soon as i can get a ride, i’ll be heading over to Laëtitia’s. We haven’t really hung out in a long time- just us. I only see her at school or at parties, so i’m pretty happy. But, more awesome is that we’re gonna rent Saved! and watch that. Neither one of us has seen it, though i’ve heard just amazing things. I’m so psyched. My sister said that...

I’ve got the theme of 30Rock stuck in my head. And i keep walking all slouched and sighing a lot, so that i can go along with it.

Just a lil' suggestion:
Don’t watch Bones while you’re eating. Those two activities do not mix well.

Woah woah, guy. You are walking way too close. I can hear you crunching your apple with my headphones on. That is a sign that you need to back off.

I’m going to wear my most billowy jacket to the midterm today. If you’re going to fuck something up, you might as well fuck it up comfortably.
Wish me luck, anyway.

I'M A GENIUS
In Latin we did a practice vocab test. We were gonna see how many words we knew out of 185 vocab words. Domina said that if we got above a hundred, we were good. I was only shaky on 22. Hurray for me!
So, yeah, i’m probably not going to study.

Hurray! (cont.)
Don’t know if i posted this before, but last week i went to my friend’s lunch and she was sitting with a boy. So when i got there i was like, “HEY i know you!” and he didn’t know me, so i described in great detail the moment that we met. Down to what i was wearing and where we were standing exactly. I felt like such a creeper afterward- and he probably thought i was,...
Hurray!
Found out that all my friends talk about me during their lunch period, in a good way, though, so i’m really happy. People like me!

Tumblr is teasing me!
That little red speech bubble that pops up when you should reload your dashboard because there’s a new post keeps showing himself to me, but when i clickity-click it there’s no new post.
My room might as well be in space, it is so cold. I mean, the space that’s far away from stars and other sources of heat. You get it.
I should be sleeping and getting a full night’s sleep before my midterm tomorrow, but instead i’m watching the Office and drinking glass upon glass of water and jingling my jingly earrings that jingle. They make little ping-ping noises that really accents Dwight’s shouting.

Lenore’s post made me want to download more Nellie McKay songs and the torrent is going super super slow. I just want to sing!

i figured i’d change my tumblr name.

Yeah so this afternoon i changed my tumblr name to Moon-faced Sinope. Because in Greek, Sinope translates to moon-face and because i’m very pale and have a round face. But out of curiosity, i looked up moon-face on Urban Dictionary and it came up with various things:
Moonface usually occurs when an individual has been smoking weed.
someone whose face looks like they little mental...

My sister brought home a stethoscope
so i snatched it and tried to hear my heartbeat. I stood really still for a minute or so, but i couldn’t hear my heart. At first i thought i just didn’t have one, but it turns out i was only holding the stethoscope wrong.

I just saw an ad that had a picture of a curled up and not fully-formed fetus and the text next to it read in all caps: “IS THIS REAL?”
Dude, i wish fetuses weren’t real.

Yummy yummy bagel in my tummy!
Cinnamon flavor. I bet you’re so envious right now.

The new “in” thing is apparently those little rubber bands shaped like animals. Most people are sporting at least three on their wrists, and every time a person pulls out a package, kids swarm around her/him to get a better look.
I’ll care when those animals start to move on their own. Like in that SpyKids movie, where they were real animals, just shrunken to an adorable...

Tomorrow is the first day of midterms. I’m both excited and a little nervous. Nervous because, well, it’s just a series of big tests. I just gotta remember to relax, cuz they don’t count that much in the long run and everyone does better when they aren’t stressed. Maybe i should do yoga.
But i’m excited because i get half-days! WOOOOOOOO SCHOOL’S OUT.

Just watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding with my mother. I never really liked Toula, but i do love her house. At the beginning of the movie she complains that her house was “modeled after the Parthenon,” but what the hell, girl? You’re house looks just how i want my house to look. When i get my own apartment, i’m going to buy all kinds of statues like that, because Greek...

Had a weird dream last night (not unusual). I don’t remember most of it, but i do remember three things about it:
It was a really angry dream. I went from angsty in the beginning to full out irate at the end. And then when i woke up i was angry still.
For most of the time i spent talking in the dream, i was like a walking ad for this actress’ career. I even made up a movie, and...

Earlier today we bought some fresh green beans for dinner, and after i finished cutting the ends off, i thought “well, my puppy likes green beans, so why waste these ends when i can give ‘em to her?- save the earth, amirite?” So i dumped the uncooked ends into her bowl, and she came running. She’s never had uncooked green beans before, but i didn’t consider that. She...

I have to write two papers this weekend. Blegh, i really don’t want to. They aren’t really due until wednesday, but i know that if i don’t do them this weekend, they’ll never get done. I love to procrastinate. I just can’t on these papers, because the semester ends on wednesday.
I gotta psych myself up- like a boxer before a fight. I’ll play peppy music and...

I'm a pretty terrible story-teller.
As a kid, i had a big problem communicating. Specifically, telling stories.
I’d tell people whatever story popped into my head, regardless of relevance to the current conversation and/or importance (“today in school, a kid was wearing a red jacket and i was writing with a red pen! Ha-ha!”). In addition, i frequently left out key details (“i was in class today, when a kid...

Out of the eight choices of Supreme Court cases Lenore gave me, i think i’ma go with Church of Lukumi Babalu Aye v. City of Hialeah for my paper, in case anyone’s interested.

I don’t like pepper. It is a food-ruiner.
And you don’t like peanut butter and chocolate either. Are you real?
I have a weird palate. I love venison and asparagus and broccoli and all kinds of cheese and fruity candy and strawberries and pheasant and tomatoes and garlic. I can’t stand duck (I had to eat it all the time when I was little and...
Supreme Court case wanted
I have to write a short paper (only 2-3 pages) for my final on any Supreme Court case.
Recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Any suggestions?

Hey rosasparks,
I want you to know that i started following you because of that Falco video you posted. I was looking at your page, and i was probably going to follow you anyway, but that Der Kommissar really sealed the deal.
That’s not even mentioning the Big Audio Dynamite video that followed.
