My new journal name is les_cicatrices.

This journal may be updated from time to time, but les_cicatrices will be my primary journal.

Please friend me over there if you are interested.

I has them.

I'm also 98% sure that I'm going to create a new journal tomorrow (or very soon, as my paid account expires on the 11th). Not rename, but a whole new journal. I'm still taking name suggestions, haha.

This whole real world transition-y thing is kind of...um...hard, you know?

Happy New Year to all.

I have seen many strange things on the internets. But I think the most disturbing so far is a slash community where one member of the pairing is someone you performed and graduated with in high school. No?

It doesn't help that Lucas did, does, and always will look around 12 years old...

I got to ride on a motorcycle for the first time today! My dad recently got a Harley, so he took me out on it. I was very, very scared (and cold) at first, but after I got the hang of it and realized that no, I would not fly off at every turn, it was better. (Except the cold. It was cold the whole time :)).

Note to other drivers: it's not nice (and it is scary) to act as though you don't notice the rather sizable motorcycle traveling next to you. Back off!

Other highlights of the day: saw 11 deer while out walking with the 'rents, went out to the veteran's cemetery to see my grandpa's grave, went to church, made three pans of twice baked potatoes, rolls, gingerbread, and a huge bacon-cheesy-eggy-chilies-potato-casserole in the crockpot for the morning. Mmm.

I cannot wait until tomorrow, so I can give my gift to my little cousin. (Is that pathetic, or just a sign of maturity?)

Merry Christmas!

Hey! I can talk now.

Got home to Springfield yesterday, saw Sweeney Todd with randomslasher: I liked it, though she did not--shame! Only not. You like what you like. Saw Walk Hard with my mother today--a very different kind of movie than Sweeney Todd, lol, though I liked it as well. Tonight we went to a party with my mother's side of the family, who are ALWAYS interesting.

Tomorrow: church and making 40ish twice-baked potatoes. I hope to avoid my father's side of the family until Tuesday, but I imagine we'll get dragged out there no matter what.

Oh! There was one thing I didn't like about Sweeney Todd:

( cut for kinda spoilerish, but not really...don't click if you don't want to know even one single detail about the movie )

If I am not back on tomorrow, Merry Christmas to all.

I'm weird. And my mouth fucking hurts. (Also, who knew that nitrous oxide makes you have to piss like a motherfucker?)

“I just thought that everyone should know that this is what you sound like after four Saks in the mouth and refilling. I hope that everyone has a merry Christmas and also thank you to Dana, Ruby and Vladimir for the card you sent me. I'll talk to you guys later and I know it's not what I always sound like. Talk to you later. Bye.” Auto-Transcribed Voice Post - spoken through SpinVox

EDIT: LOL. Obviously I did not transcribe that. But I'm leaving it up. Vladimir!

This has got to be one of the dumbest--and I mean dumbest letters to the editor I've ever read in a newspaper. Not that I read the opinion section in order to read the incredibly well-informed observations of people who, like those sharks who have to keep moving lest they die, must bitch lest they die, but this is bad:

The letters yesterday complaining about "Xmas" were bad, but this...this topped it.

I think I just saw Dick Van Dyke at the grocery store.

Finally got to the dentist this morning...not good.

First of all, since I was a new patient, they took 16 X-rays. I don't like getting one, let alone 16, so I was gagging. A lot. After that, they looked through my mouth with a camera to see the state my teeth were in. I got to watch the inside of my mouth on the TV the camera was connected to...gross, but interesting.

There were some obvious bad spots, but the hygienist told me that they'd check to see if they were just stains before they would officially decide if they were cavities.

The dentist came in, scraped and scraped, and spotted three cavities. After that, they cleaned and flossed, and then scraped some more. Then, the dentist told me that I'm losing the enamel on one of my back teeth, and I'd better pay very special attention to it or I'll get a crown.

Ouch. :(

I don't get it...I didn't have a single cavity until I was 22. Since then, I've had SIX.

(I suppose I should be thankful that I have insurance and the money to go to the dentist, but I'm still mad.)

16 X-rays!!!! I probably have cancer now.

I think I'm dating someone?
