I'm marijuanakills over at Dreamwidth.

So, yeah. That.

Damn you, Livejournal!

wow, i feel slow

Sean Astin (of The Goonies slash Rudy slash The Lord of the Rings trilogy fame) is Patty Duke's son.

Mind=blown. How did I not know this? I mean, they even resemble each other.

anonymous gifter, you've made my month

I don't know who you are (obviously), but thank you so much for the paid account time! Happy early birthday to me! <333

what are you doing here?

By the time I die, I'll have dreamt about every living being I've ever encountered.

because dying is funny?

To refer to death as someone having "kicked the bucket" amuses me way more than it should.

dry those tears and keep on moving

Some of the best advice I've ever received is, "Stop feeling sorry for yourself."

And it came from me.

I caught a moth in my hand.

I let it go.

We were both grateful.

I'm heartbroken.

mmkay, i feel stupid

I just learned from Hyperbole and a Half that the word 'meme' is pronounced "meem." I've been saying "mim" in my head this entire time. Not only do I feel extremely slow right now, but I also hate the word 'meme' just a little bit more than I did before.

God, the movie Juno is so obnoxious. I almost hate the fact that I like it.

satisfaction

I love push-ups so much. The calisthenic maneuver, not the bra. Or the childhood ice cream treat. Okay, the bra and the ice cream, too.

what i like about me, i really know how to dance

One thing that I like about me is that when I do something clumsy and really hurt myself, I'll just laugh and laugh. And if there's someone else there to witness it, I'll encourage them to laugh with me and we will, until the tears flow. And every now and then, as the years go by, I'll bring it up again and we'll laugh some more.

So...that's that story.

idle chatter

I somewhat want to see Iron Man 2 because I enjoyed the first one, but my distaste for Scarlett Johansson is making me a little less eager. Still, I might risk it. Who knows, maybe I'll freakishly like her acting in this role. At the very least, maybe her presence won't ruin the whole movie for me. ;P

And while my disdain for Scarlett Johansson is as present as ever, disdain points for Megan Fox are markedly lower than they have been in the past. She's not yet proven herself to be an actor worth her salt, but I've read some of her quotes and man, that chick is off. I kind of dig that.

does a coach potato eating potatoes count as cannibalism?

I've eaten an entire gigantic bag (255.1g) of barbecue flavored Baked Lay's chips by myself in three days. Thank god that averages out to only about 360 calories a day.

family non-drama

My mom will be in town for a while. This means good times will be had.

tumblr links?

Hand 'em over.

a voice too beautiful not to be shared

because this matters

"Like the dickens" is one of my all-time favorite sayings. I mean, it's almost an officially adopted phrase in my family. In our home you would frequently hear sentences like, "That hurt like the dickens!" or "It's hot like the dickens outside." We'd also say "that's the dickens" in the most sincerely somber of tones if someone delivered bad news. Back in those days, I might have said, "Dang...that's the dickens" if someone had told me that Heath Ledger died or something.

To me, "like the dickens" is so awesome that I don't even want to ruin it for myself by looking up its origins (if you tell me, I will hunt you down and tickle you to death with a feather). And I'm the type of person who is inclined to research the origins of damn near anything and everything. See? It's such a badass phrase that it makes me defy my very own nature.

Anyway, I think I need to bring the "dickens" back and spread the love. It's time.
