Be Mischievous; It Feels Good  
Hello people!

I'm exhausted. I've done nothing all day. Seriously, if anything, I was kinda lazy today, but I feel so lethargic, it hurts to move. *shakes head* I need, like, a week of sleep.

Photo was good, I developed some pics today! They look pretty cool, but I had to use 400 speed film, which makes the pics a little more grainy than if I'd used 100 speed film, so they're kinda...slightly fuzzy, actually. Still though. They're schaweet. XD Um, math was lame-ass'd, as usual. We took a quiz today and I think I prolly got an A- or around there. I think we have a quiz tomorrow, too. *guh*

AP Gov. was okay. We talked about federalism and Jen stopped in to give Messick some apple crisp. She stayed for the rest of class and it was quite fun, lol. Uh, forensics was boring, blah blah blah. But MindCandy was very fun. We had to bring in quotes, as I said yesterday, and I brought in "I Am America (And So Can You!)" from which to pick a quote. I ended up picking the first two paragraphs of the Atheist section of the Religion chapter. And I re-read the SEX chapter throughout the course of the day. X] It made me happy, lol.

One who knows nothing can understand nothing.
-Ansem (KH)

Oh, war. It’s just God’s way of teaching Americans geography.
-The Daily Show

I'm just an elected official! I can't make decisions on my own!
-the Mayor from Nightmare Before Christmas

If religion and the fear of punishment is the only thing keeping mankind moral we are a pathetic bunch indeed.
-Albert Einstein

Not living in fear is a great gift, because certainly these days we do it so much. And do you know what I like about comedy? You can’t laugh and be afraid at the same time - of anything. If you're laughing, I defy you to be afraid.
-Stephen Colbert

It upset me that, five days after the hurricane hit down in New Orleans, the President's plan was for a day of prayer. I would have thought a truck of food. Now, maybe I'm mistaken here, and I'm not a scientific expert, but isn't a hurricane officially an act of God? Isn't a day of prayer kind of redundant? Hasn't God already made up his mind on that sort of thing? So we do a day of prayer. Three days later, Hurricane Rita hits. Somebody must have said something...something like, "Is that all you got?”
-Jon Stewart

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-Macbeth (Act 5, Scene 5)

We read most of our quotes aloud, and Robbins really liked the Colbert and Stewart quotes, lol. <3 He pretty much RULES. Jen and I went to Panera for lunch (and OMF she's driving my mom's work car! not, like, mom's car, but the same model and such). I got a delicious sandwich and a cheese danish and another frozen caramel coffee. I really love Panera. They kick ass.

We talked and laughed and whatnot, lol, for about forty minutes, I would guess, and then Jen drove me home. But she kinda got lost for a minute, LOL! Love ya, Jen. ;] I got home at about...I think 1:30, 1:40? I don't even know. I wanted so much to sleep, but I'm not allowed to, so I got online instead, lol.

OH! Nick stayed home sick today. Ya know what's wrong with him? He has a sore throat. A month or so ago, when I was throwing up, I was forced to go to school. I feel like the fucking sister in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. It's ridiculous! And I glared at dad this morning when he told me why Nick was staying home, and he was like, "WHAT?! What's wrong with YOU?!" I just rolled my eyes and dropped it cuz no one in my house ever sees my POV. It really pisses me off, though. He's treated so fucking special. I hate it.

Anyway, Since I got home, I've felt so tired. I don't know why, but I swear, I could fall asleep right now and not get up til noon tomorrow. Unfortunately, there's no way I can stay home "sick" for a long time, cuz mom and dad will prolly think I'm faking, even if I'm not. *grrness* Um...that's it, I guess. Oh, the title of this post is from a Dove chocolate wrapper. Ya know how the small ones have messages on them? *points to title* That was one, lol.

The financial aid thing from last night was stupid. Sooooo boring. I might lose some computer/TV time (maybe even lose my computer altogether *tears*) when my rents see my grades on Friday. I dunno what I'm gonna do. And I feel like I'm being suffocated. I can't explain my existence right now, but I can tell you I'm not pleased with it. I wish it would just be fucking May already. I can haz diploma nao? *grabby hands*

I wanna write. Goddamn it. I wanna write.

Love y'all - Mira/Doc/Kat *meow*

Sorry you had such a crappy day. I've been there.

I hope you write more soon, too! The second part of my Halloween fic will be up soon. :)

Thanks. <3

:D GAH! I have to read it still, lol! I'm such a slacker. *headdesk*

We had a quiz in math today too. I failed. Lol. So kudos on your A-!

LOVE that quote about war teaching us geography and that Stephen one is luff, and that Jon one is hysterical! That is like, the personification of his brand of humor, that quote right there. Awesome.

Tsk - that is so not fair. If you're really not feeling well, you should be able to stay home. Gawd.

Ohhh. I hope you don't lose your computer just because of some stupid letters on a piece of paper!! And I understand about you feeling suffocated. Right about this time two years ago, I was ready for senior year to just BE OVER already. Hope the year ends quickly for you!
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 22nd, 2008 11:26 pm (UTC)
Aww! Thanks! MATH SUCKS.

Me too. Totally, LOL! XD

Thanks, lol. <333

You have no idea how much that means to me, lol. I feel kinda alone but that really made me feel less so. *hugs*
Mrs. Carell-Colbert-Stewart: Colbert/Stewart[info]shoebox_addict on October 22nd, 2008 11:53 pm (UTC)
You're welcome! Yes, it does. Gah.

Lol.

I'm glad I could help. -hugs- =)

Best Dove wrapper ever. Lol. I love being mischievous.

Those are great quotes too. OH! Maybe you can help me. I was looking for a quote earlier from Stephen but couldn't find it anywhere. Maybe you've seen it somewhere? It was something about when he lived in Chicago and was all depressed and it was something like "I would ask myself 'why are you so down? Oh that's right, you cold, hungry and you paid for the bus with pennies'".

Gah. I can't remember it fully and I can't remember where I heard/read it. It's driving me nuts.
The Indestructible Clairmanda: WickedElphaba[info]zeitgeist_10 on October 23rd, 2008 01:13 am (UTC)
"you're cold" not "you cold" lol. I can use proper grammar, I swear. XD
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 23rd, 2008 01:33 am (UTC)
LOL, totalleh.

Thanks, I concur! OH! I know what you're talking about! Um...hmm...okay, lemme see if I can find it. *scurries off to check*

I'll see what I can do! <3
The Indestructible Clairmanda[info]zeitgeist_10 on October 23rd, 2008 01:58 am (UTC)
Omigosh, If you find it I will love you forever! Not that I won't already love you forever or anything, but you know what I mean. :D

I tried using The Google, but it came up with mostly quotes from "Stephen" and after sifting through pages for like an hour and a half, I sadly gave up.
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 23rd, 2008 03:07 am (UTC)
LOL! Yes, I know whatcha mean. ;]

Okay, I tried to find it, but I can't seem to right now, LOL. I'll see if I can find it tomorrow (gotta go to bed), cuz I know exactly what you're talking about and I can see the interview in my head, I just have to remember what channel/website it was for. :}
The Indestructible Clairmanda[info]zeitgeist_10 on October 23rd, 2008 04:10 am (UTC)
No problem! Just keep an eye out for it for me. I'll keep looking too. :)
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 23rd, 2008 07:32 pm (UTC)
See post:
http://community.livejournal.com/tdstcr_ot/175101.html?view=1335549#t1335549

I don't think what apple_scruffer is entirely correct (I mean, from what I remember, Stephen said what you're looking for in a video, not an interview in a magazine), but yeah, lol.
The Indestructible Clairmanda: LMS OMG![info]zeitgeist_10 on October 23rd, 2008 07:48 pm (UTC)
AH Thank you! This is it. Though maybe he said in a video too, because I distinctly remember hearing him say it as well. Hmm...

Still though, it's the quote I was looking for!!!! YAY!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

(and OMFG I can't believe I didn't think of that Reader's Digest interview, because I was the one that found it and posted it on here and gave them the heads up at NFZ. XD I have the picture from the magazine up on my wall. FAIL.) lol.
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 23rd, 2008 08:04 pm (UTC)
LAWLZ, no probs! :DDD

Hehe, nice. ;] I totally spaced on it, too, and I think I posted about it, lol. *shrugs*

I love all your quotes, haha. There's a Stephen quote where he says "Cynicism is for the weak"...which is lovely. Anyway. Guess why you reread the SEX chapter? ;) No, I flatter myself.

The titles of your posts always make me smile, btw. I feel honored that I supplied you with a title. Once upon a time.
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 23rd, 2008 01:34 am (UTC)
Thanks! LOL, OMG, I've never heard that! That's AWEOSME! XD Haha, YOU KNOW IT! ;] <3

Awww, I'm glad! Hehe! If it wasn't utterly redundant, I'd take quotes from you all the time, lol! Goodness knows you say funny things, like, every second! XD
Parisology: the language of politics.[info]celli_puzzle on October 23rd, 2008 02:39 am (UTC)
It's a really lovely quote. :D Mwaha. Mantle cavity sexiness.

Aww. I love you too :) I'm quotable! Not really.
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 23rd, 2008 03:09 am (UTC)
It really is, lol. <3 HAHA YES. Pervertiness like whoa. X]

HEHE! <333 You really are, lol.
Parisology: the language of politics.[info]celli_puzzle on October 24th, 2008 12:59 am (UTC)
I know. Could anyone but Stephen make octopi slightly....sexy?

Thank you. I think random mindedness is a great asset in the world today.

Is it immature that the presence of the word ASS in ASSET amuses me to no end?
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 24th, 2008 01:04 am (UTC)
HAHA. No way, man, no way.

It really is. And it's not utilized enough.

In no way, lol. I still laugh at analyzing.
Parisology: the language of politics.[info]celli_puzzle on October 24th, 2008 01:07 am (UTC)
Okay. I just giggled out loud and people were TOTALLY LOOKING AT ME.

AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT.

Anal-ysis. lol. Yes, I am, actually, older than 6....
Living in the Age of Colbertius[info]colbertobsessed on October 24th, 2008 01:13 am (UTC)
LOL! XDDD WHOOT! It's fun being stared at in public. ;]

IT TOTALLEH IS. *headdesk* STOOPID MEE!

I don't believe it for a second. ;D In forensics, we're talking about analgesics (sp?), which is druggy stuff, lol, and everytime I see it I giggle. And then people glare at me.

Okay, well, not show him. But still! Not OJ!
