A little while ago, I pulled up to the pump and it read "$70.22." I let out a long gleeful internal cackle and walked away having paid only $6.50 or so. I pay this about three or four times a month; I get 60 mpg with city riding (other people who do mostly highway on my model of bike get 70 mpg). …

How I made it through this time
http://www.moronosphere.com/hiromi/2008/04/how_i_made_it_through_this_time.phpI inhabited darkness for so long. I want something else. I want a warm glowy feeling. I want to be a force for good. In recent weeks, I lost my "Everything Will Be Okay" feeling -- possibly due to stress -- and have been slithering around in a pit again (hence the "Craving" post of last Friday). …

Let’s Go To The Movies
http://charleyana.wordpress.com/2008/04/20/lets-go-to-the-mo...9.-Larry, just between you and me, we got a very serious problem with the people taking care of the place. They turned out to be completely unreliable assholes. Another hint: “Heeeeeerrrre’s Johnny!” #9 is The Shining (guessed before hint) says Hiromi. Good on ya, H. Most people can get the heeeere’s johnny quote but I like Scatman’s “unreliable assholes” quote best. 10.-You know, I’ve been good all my adult life.

http://gradstudentmadness.blogspot.com/2008/04/banorexia.htm...I first heard this story about a month ago on the morning news show in Marseille; I figured it was too early in the morning and I had heard it wrong. Nope: the French parliament really is considering making it a crime to endorse anorexia, aiming at banning super-thin models

"I'm FIRST in line! And if you don't like it, you can put it where the monkey puts the nuts!"
http://sexeteria.net/2008/03/im_first_in_line_and_if_you_don...4. "Too many guys think I'm a concept, or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. But I'm just a fucked-up girl who's lookin' for my own peace of mind; don't assign me yours." Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind -- guessed by Hiromi. See it uttered in context here (at around 2:50). 5. "I had a bad day. I had to subvert my principles and kowtow to an idiot. Television makes these daily sacrifices possible. Deadens the inner core of my being." "Let's move away then." "They have

http://newpackage.wordpress.com/2008/03/07/somcnulty/My fellow recovering dope fiend Hiromi and I are thinking a McNulty suicide watch is in order. Not sure it would work from a dramatic standpoint with only one episode left to go, but if I was McNulty’s real life friend, I’d be worried.
