Summer Mode

Well, finals are over.

Another day at 104*F.

I've finally started reading Nan Dibble's fanfiction. Currently addicted.

Summer quarter starts next week.

Philosophy.
Poli-Sci.
History 1900 - present.

The rents have left for a week long vacation on the boat in the delta.

They took all the food. They did leave money though. I'm going to join them from next Thursday to Saturday.

If I'm lucky it'll be 5-10 degrees cooler in the delta than here.

I'm going to spend the whole time swimming, eating, reading, and playing cards. I think I'll enjoy it very much.

Was watching this "1988" special on VH1 for a while. They talked about Depeche Mode. They were all "What does depeche mode mean, any? It's a mode. Like, I'm feeling depeche now."

Stupid bints. Couldn't bother to pick up a bloody French dictionary.

rhyme

I went all morning trying to remember this. The third line was all I knew.


Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye;
Four and twenty blackbirds,
Baked in a pie.

When the pie was opened,
The birds began to sing;
Was not that a dainty dish,
To set before the king?

The king was in his counting-house,
Counting out his money;
The queen was in the parlour,
Eating bread and honey.

The maid was in the garden,
Hanging out the clothes;
When down came a blackbird,
And pecked off her nose.



Hm... I bet that's an English nursery rhyme. It sounds more English than American.

question for the LJ pool of collective knowledge

What does "mensch" mean?

Take this example:

"I’d try to help anyway, because we have history. Not all of it good, but history. And I guess I’m in no position: glass house, kettle, stones, sin? And I have to admit, he’s become a mensch. Not a man, but a mensch."
-from Old Blood

It's past 11pm.

It's too hot to sleep.

I'm bored of reading fic.

There's no anime on adult swim.

I can't write any more of my new CB fic until Netflix sends me the Session 5 DVD I want, so I can see the two episodes I missed of the series.

I have no new movies to watch.

I'm bored.

Neat.

Sig Sauer P226. Greatest gun ever! Feel special.
Beautiful and reliable but can still scare the
living bejesus outta anyone.
