Awesome. I’m getting sick of pointing at things and hoarsely whispering. And I have no idea what I’m going to do for tomorrow’s lecture. Is there sign language for “heteronormative matrix”?
On the plus side, I think I finally finished my article today. I hope it’s done, anyway. I don’t know [...]

Cancelled classes and stayed home today. Sick as a dog with this viral infection. It’s completely brutal. I’m shaking and shivering one minute, sweating like crazy the next. At one point, I was in a hot bath WITH GOOSEBUMPS. How does that even happen? I thought I had a [...]

Ugh. Still sick. Mornings are definitely the worst, though. Dragging myself up and out of bed without a hot bath and a hot compress on my sinuses is basically impossible. Am I dreading Monday? Why yes, yes I am.

Dr Drew: Mostly he posts quotations, but they’re always good ones.
Christopher Walken: I’m told this one isn’t legit, but I don’t really care as the comedy I get from it is incredible. For example, “‘Secretary of Ironic Scarves.’ I don’t know if Obama read my letter but I hope so. Ashton Kutcher deserves this. So does [...]

I won’t complain any more. Honestly, today’s experience was really good. HLM’s only got a viral infection, it turns out, and the clinic staff was incredibly efficient and well-meaning. They have a system worked out where you go in when it opens, sign up for an appointment time, and come back at your timeslot. Way [...]

I may be the last person in the universe to have seen Milk, but holy hell it was amazing. I love based-on-a-true-story movies anyway, but everything about Harvey Milk’s story really got to me. I can’t believe how hostile people can be to change, and to anything that threatens their limiting, ignorant worldview. Watching that [...]
