“‘Well…you see, sir? If we can use an H-bomb — and, as you said, it’s no checker game; it’s real, it’s war and nobody is fooling around — isn’t it sort of ridiculous to go crawling around in the weeds, throwing knives and maybe getting yourself killed…and even losing the war…when you’ve got a real weapon you can use to win?...

I am procrastinating so hard right now.
School is such a grind.

I hear “dig” from you, babe, and all I can think of is a shovel.

Simple Solution
I think a lot of drama and other problems could be solved if these teenage girls just had higher standards for boys.
Seriously.

I need a good birthday present for my dad. I’m sure he’d like a gun or something destructive and manly, but I don’t have the money for that. I have $40 to spend. Call me cheap, but I don’t want to spend ALL of it, as it’s
all that’s left of my funds (after I buy Fable 3 on Tuesday).
Maybe I’ll be able to find an NCR shirt. More likely, I’ll get him...

dreams
I have really weird, vivid ones a lot. It’s so crazy.
Like today when I was taking a nap (<3), I dreamed I had a pen that had a screen in it — the screen was wider than the pen, but not too much — and it was a dictionary and thesaurus. Which sounds like a great idea.
And then I dreamed about more symbolic things, like standing up for three of my friends really dramatically....
due to the copious amount of people at atherton...
the single people should just throw a party or something.
seriously, this is weird. was something put in the water lately?
It’s like in the great stories Mr. Frodo, the ones that really mattered....

if you’re a gamer, watch it.
it’s cute.
So many plans
getbuckmyfriends:
Should I go to Isaacs house with a bunch of people where there will be booze and weed and most likely 2 girls and a lot of dudes. Or. Go to homecoming even though I don’t know anybody who’s going and not get high and wasted. I’d prefer not to get high and wasted, especially since I have to work at 9 am the next day, but I don’t know who’s going to be at homecoming. Damn.

My room smells weird.
I think it might be from the piles of clothes scattered around.
I don’t like it.
LET'S GO HERE RIGHT FUCKING NOW. →
I don't understand
Why my family decided to use our smallest car for the road trip. There’s five of us crammed into this thing. Why in God’s name didn’t we use our Expedition?

“I think Fox … is part of the tradition that has a very clear, undeniable point of view. It’s a point of view that I disagree with. It’s a point of view that I think is ultimately destructive for the long-term growth of a country that has a vibrant middle class and is competitive in the world. But as an economic enterprise, it’s been wildly successful.”

Dear October,
Thanks for finally getting here. I can’t wait to play Fallout New Vegas in a couple weeks, and Fable 3 after that. Also I can’t wait to dress up and demand candy from my pretentious neighboors.
Love,
Catherine
