*thinks*

This post got me thinking. I want to be on the next house series. Really. Now, whenever I get a stupid idea like this, I run it by my sister.

Me: So, Jenn? I've got something I want to do...
Jenn: Okay.
Me: No, this is kinda stupid....
Jenn: You do lots of stupid things.
Me: Yeah, but... I wanna be on the next PBS house series.
Jenn: You'd never make it.
Me: I'd never make it on, or I'd never survive?
Jenn: You'd never survive.

Now, is it just me, or does that sound like a challenge? Perhaps even a dare? Way to talk me out of it, Jenn, now I really REALLY want to do this just to prove you wrong. I just need to become an interesting person in under a year. I can do that.

Wow.

I want to see this documentary. Just to see it.

The following are the most popular interests. See the numbers? In the tens of thousands. But you can only see 500 people with those interests. You might as well not even bother adding them to your list, nobody is ever going to find you based on those interests.

Why, oh why, can't one search by more than one interest at a time? I know there's another community out there based on book icons, specifically those that have been made into movies, but with this system, the odds of finding a needle in a bottle of hay are infinitely better.

I've turned obsessive. And I should be studying. Sue me.

Hm. So, my thoughts have drifted to this question:

How many books, exactly, have been made into movies?

*thinks*

( Books )

( Fairy Tales )

I know I'm missing several. Help?

*squeels*

It's so cuuuuute! I want to love it and hug it and give it candy and read to it and hug it because it's the cutest thing ever!

Most of this is people being hypocritical. One of them, though, really bothered me.

"I have done several abortions on women who have regularly picketed my clinics, including a 16 year old schoolgirl who came back to picket the day after her abortion, about three years ago. During her whole stay at the clinic, we felt that she was not quite right, but there were no real warning bells. She insisted that the abortion was her idea and assured us that all was OK. She went through the procedure very smoothly and was discharged with no problems. A quite routine operation. Next morning she was with her mother and several school mates in front of the clinic with the usual anti posters and chants. It appears that she got the abortion she needed and still displayed the appropriate anti views expected of her by her parents, teachers, and peers."

It's possible, even probable that she's really anti-abortion (just choosing to pretend hers doesn't count) but I keep thinking how sad it must be to have your family and friends implicitly telling you that you're evil, and wrong, and not to be able to speak up and say that they don't know what they're talking about.

So, we're eating Chinese food.

None of it is spicy enough. I knew I should've put in a request for rainbow chicken before my family went to the store. *munches on a fortune cookie* Ooh! Look! It has a little piece of paper inside! Sometimes, I get the ones without fortunes.

Relax and enjoy yourself

Hm. Now how does that game go? Relax and enjoy yourself... in bed.

*blinkblinkblink* You don't even need a dirty mind to understand this one. Sometimes, I think they're not even trying. Of course, Mommy got "Good news will be brought to you by mail", and there's no way to make this work. Even if you misspell mail as male, it still isn't that good.
