young lovers and they are not sleeping

[ishyface]

Every now and again I get the strongest urge to update my LJ. This usually happens when I am at work and have a line of twenty-seven customers, and so all I can do is sigh and hope that I remember it later. Usually by the time I get home I'll have forgotten whatever brilliant thing I was going to say about school or puppies or string cheese or whatever I was thinking about.

You are not really missing much, to be totally honest.

Today I got that urge and realized hey, I am sitting at my laptop! With a Notepad window open, even! And so I started to type a beautiful entry about what I am doing, where I feel my life is going, and what I am looking forward to in the months to come. It was pretty great.

Then I dropped my computer on the floor and had to restart it without getting the chance to save what I'd written. So it goes.*

I am graduating soon even though I thought I'd be an undergrad forever for some reason. My thoughts on that: Huh. I am going to take a year off to work so I can go to grad school in Halifax and become a foxy librarian.** My thoughts on that: Yay? I am currently working as a cashier in a grocery store. My thoughts on that: Eh. I no longer have blue hair and want to stretch my ears. My thoughts on that: Yay! I am going to get married in the near(ish) future. My thoughts on that: <333 I am pretty psyched about my life right now even if I don't have a pony yet. My thoughts on that: winning.

Here is what I look like now:



Startled hipster is startled.

Here is what I looked like in seventh grade, on picture day:



Resigned plump kid is resigned.

Aaaaaand here is a Mother Mother video:

I don't even know.

It was a lot more affecting the first time I wrote it. I hope.

What is up with everyone else?


* I believe Vonnegut meant the phrase to be used in instances such as these.

** In order to get into library school I will have to write an entrance essay. I am wondering if I should mention in mine that my desire to become a librarian is due nearly entirely to

a) the profession's sexy reputation;

b) books, books, all the time books; and

c) Rachel Weisz's character in The Mummy.
