I'm extremely blunt when it comes to talking about myself.
Listography gives me a sense of stability. A feeling of calmness, when everything else in my life is chaotic. I live for stuff like that.
I've started a new one for 2010 (and the majority of December 2009). I'll probably do this every year. I'm another one of those peop...

  • Today, our P.E class had finished swimming and were changing in the changing rooms. A girl went out of the changing room and switched off the lights of the girls changing room. No one screamed.

I love old people. MLIA
  • Today, I finished the last Harry Potter books. Curious as to what the spells sounded like because I had never watched the movies, I wrote "Lumos" in the narrator of my laptop.

  • Today, I was on facebook. My brother walked behind me, stopped, then walked back. He looked at the screen and said 'who is that? She's hot!'. I don't know whats worse, the fact that my brother called the girl hot, or the fact that the girl in the picture was me. MLIA.
  • Today for Thanksgiving I was playing Battle of the Sexes with my family and I got a question to read for the boys. "In the Kitchen, what do you beat until it gets stiff?" My 70 year old grandmother then fell to ground in laughter. Typical Thanksgiving. MLIA.

  • Today, I was listening to an overcompensating idiot go on about how large his penis was when he said "My dick is so long that if I laid it on a keyboard, it would reach from A to Z!"

As I had anticipated, he said I could and told me to write a pass. I wrote "Hey, pretend this is a note for the nurse, but I saw [name omitted] steal goggles and stuff out of the lab. Sign this so I can leave and not look like a snitch." He grinned, signed it, and I left class early. I have never felt so much like a secret agent in my life. MLIA.
  • Today I was riding the train to school and a large man in his late twenties walked on carrying the third Twilight book. About three people snickered as he sat down and started reading so he looked up and said "I'm only reading this so that my sister will read Harry Potter. We made a bet." I applaud his sacrifice.

The irony? His real name is James. MLIA.
  • A few days ago me and my brother were shooting his new ak-47 paint ball gun outside at cans lined up against the gate. We couldnt hit one.

MLIA
  • Today I while messing around with my cell phone I stumbled upon my list of "quick texts." There was the usual, like "Hello," or "I miss you," or "see you later." But second to last, there was a quick text that read, "Dude, I found your egg." Why I have this particular quick text logged onto my phone remains a mystery to me. MLIA
  • Today, I went to make a baked potato, but when I started cooking it in the microwave, it made a loud whistling noise. It then occured to me that the potato sounded like it was screaming, and I felt so bad for it that I took it out of the microwave. No baked potato tonight. MLIA.
