Minka Kelly

I don't know who she is except for the fact that she isn't Leighton Meester.

Oh, and that she's super freaking hot.

Tacky post of the day goes to me :D

I’m reading about the "West Memphis 3." 3 guys convicted of murdering 3 8-year old Boy Scouts in 1994. Two got life in prison and one is on death row. The one on death row had an interview with CNN because he’s trying to get the Arkansas legal system to give him a retrial since there’s new DNA technology that could prove he’s innocent. Hopefully they will give him that because if he wants one, he must think he’s innocent and I’d hate to be the one saying no to him only to find out after he’s dead that he was innocent. There’s no harm in trying except time and money but saving a life outweighs both of those. Anyway, I’m not familiar with the murders cause the article doesn’t give much detail about it; more about the inmate. He got married in 1999 to someone who learned of his story and met him. He said she sees him weekly and calls when he can and that they drink water at the same time each day because it’s something they can both be doing at the same time so that it’s almost like they’re together. That’s really sad to me. The littlest things can bring joy to people.

Warning: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don't you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can't think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with authority that you give respect and credence to all that claim it? Do you read everything you're supposed to read? Do you think every thing you're supposed to think? Buy what you're told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you're alive. If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic. You have been warned.

Big Brother isn’t watching. He’s singing and dancing. He’s pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother’s busy holding your attention every moment you’re awake. He’s making sure you’re always distracted. He’s making sure you’re fully absorbed.

Because nothing is as good as you can imagine it. No one is as beautiful as she is in your head. Nothing is as exciting as your fantasy.

For the first time in longer than I can remember, I feel peaceful. Not happy. Not sad. Not anxious. Not horny. Just all the higher parts of my brain closing up shop. The cerebral cortex. The cerebellum. That's where my problem is. I'm now simplifying myself. Somewhere balanced in the perfect middle between happiness and sadness. Because sponges never have a bad day.

1.1.11-the tide pulls from the moon

I spent New Year's Eve at my dad's house. I enjoyed it much more than I would have going anywhere else. We had dinner, drank margaritas, and played games. First, we played Apples to Apples and then we played Random. Random consists of every player having a piece of paper that counts to 25. Seven cards are laid on the table with a fact written on each side. Each player takes turns choosing one fact out of the 14 possible facts they can choose from. The strategy is to pick a fact that you believe the rest of the players would agree with about themselves. It's kind of confusing at first but it's fun because you end up writing down which facts are true to yourself and then random facts. Whoever writes down 25 facts first wins the game. Then everyone takes turns saying their facts. About half will be facts that were on cards and half will be random things they've written down. It's neat to hear things about people you didn't previously know. If that didn't make sense, sorry, but I just needed to give a little overview of what I'm about to write about.

I picked a card that said "The solar system fascinates me." My answer was that everyone would find the solar system fascinating (Holden, Angela, Judi, Dad, Jill). When everyone revealed their answers, Jill and my dad said that the solar system doesn't fascinate them. Maybe I was unknowingly tipsy and on edge or maybe I'm just dumb..but I found that a little bit appalling. I honestly didn't know there were people who don't think the solar system is somewhat amazing. My dad said that when he looks at the sky at night, all he sees is "white dots." I love my dad but when he makes comments like that, I cringe at being related to him:).

On last night's evening news, ABC News was in Waikiki talking to upset vacationers on the beach because tons of box jellyfish were stinging people near the shore. The reasoning for the influx of jellies was because they come to the shore 10 days after every full moon. That. Is. Fascinating.
