There’s an interesting little chat going on over at Shafted about eternally platonic women friends who seemingly lead you on until they unsympathetically turn you off. And, you know, that’s pretty much the subject of this blog, so i thought i’d point it out. Plus, if i don’t link to Shafted at least once a week they send their goons after me. Anything but the goons!

Trio is in the can, and i am bleeding. Alot. But, the music was good. Ouch. Give, Like Mine, & Nothing To Say.

Interesting dilemma: What to do for New Year’s Eve. Last year at this point i was deeply sunk into the Drexel Player’s scene, and the folks in the Player’s House decided that they all wanted to get dressed up, have dinner, and then watch the ball drop. I actually forgot about this until shortly after christmas, when i phoned them up to see if i was still invited. I wound up attending, and had some of the best fun of my life, beyond compare. It was simply wonderful to spend a manic historic night locked in a house with 14 of my newest and best friends. We woke up the next morning and had eggs and then watched the house of yes while still sleepily lounging around. As for this year, i’m not entirely sure … i’m on much different terms with the Players as a whole this year as compared to last year, and i’m not sure that they’re even having a party. And, now that i’m a Sophomore, more of my friends have houses, and those houses intend to celebrate heartily. And it’s December and i don’t even know what i want to do. I suppose i’ll just keep my options open

Wow, way to go Re! She answered my longstanding Ben Folds question (see below) very succinctly and even points me towards further support for my theory. The sickness in the following weeks would most likely be a sort of post-mortem depression, and the narrator would be the only person in the position to tell the truth about what happened and get help for his girl. But, her depression is drowning him as well, and their both going under without anyone else around to notice.

I finally got a mention on BeautifulFreak-Cam! The crowds rejoice! That’s the first time (to my knowledge) that i’ve been explicitly mentioned on a cam, though my page has appeared on Jehan‘s screen once or twice, and once i made her laugh via IM. That’s in the archives somewhere. Good luck.
