The Final Hours

So. In 12 hours, I will be in the car on the way to the airport (theoretically).

I am not ready, but I am going.

To those of you who are curious, we are leaving tomorrow and will land in Catania, Sicily at 4:40pm their time. We will be 6 hours ahead.

We're family-hopping for the first week, up in the mountains.
The first few days we'll be staying with family that lives at the foot of Mount Etna. Funsies!

Then an eight hour train ride to Rome.

Then chilling in Rome the 26th-30th when we leave.
However, the hotel we're staying in is within walking distance from the Trevi Fountain!

We return around 9pm on June 30th.

Making the best of things, making the best of things, making the best of things...


But yes, I am definitely stressed as fuck right now. It took me over 5 hours to do my translation today. And I have 2 assignments to do for my poli sci class. Oh shit and I have to rent a textbook. OH FAIL. Anywayy.... HERE WE GO.

IN CLOSING! Please do not text me after 5pm tomorrow and don't start again until 4pm on June 30. I'm sure I will text twitter and facebook when I land. Photos will soon follow!


BOOKS I AM BRINGING WITH ME ON THE PLANE:

• Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace
• A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson
• The Little Stranger by Sarah Waters
• A Child Called It by Dave Pelzer
• The Five People You Meet In Heaven by Mitch Albom
• Various Italian phrase- and grammarbooks

I can't remember what else was in my suitcase, but that's all the reading I'm bringing for my 24+ hours of traveling!

Will you melt my Big Butter Jesus?

I will melt anything named Jesus.

Is your favorite movie of all time Norbit? If not then what?

Not a fan of Norbit. I prefer not to be able to predict every second of a movie.

My favorite movie of all time is The Fountain. Absolutely brilliant and emotional. And I LOVE Mayan mythology. Darren Aronofsky is a fucking genius. He's never done anything I don't like. I bawl throughout the entire damn film. So beautiful.

A Quick Thought: Cunt

I was thinking this afternoon (while making mac n cheese).

Cunt is one of my favorite words.

You can say it around children because:
1) parents don't teach that one to them and
2) even if they ask "What does that mean?" how many kids will know what you're talking about when you say "Oh, it means 'vagina'"?

That is all. :)

All Over the Place

My mood is all over the place.
Perhaps it's because I haven't taken my pills for days now.
Oh, that reminds me. I've gotta remember to pack those. Well, damn.

I mean, I'm really not looking horribly forward to this vacation, but I talked to my mom on the phone today, and she simply reassured me that she and Amanda and I are all on the same boat. I said something about not knowing how many books to bring, and she was like "Amanda and I were just trying to figure that out, too!"

So yes. That's making me feel much better.

I'm just going to try to look at the "vacation" as an adventure and some quality time with my sister. And with Beckie Cousin and Matt! That'll be swell! :)


I've had a pretty good day. Last night was tough, but today has been better. I've baked 2 cakes in 4 days, so I'm certainly gaining weight. But I figure once the novelty of cooking and actually having a kitchen wears off (and my Easter candy finally runs out!), I'll resume my typical eating habits. :-P

It's so nice to have Molly here. She's an absolute joy and hilarious to live with.

Like I said, today has been fantastic. We just finished watching Boogie Nights, which followed a couple hours of Scrubs and baking/eating a Funfetti cake with chocolate fudge frosting! And before that, Chipotle! (for the first time in QUITE awhile!) And before that, we watched Jesus camp (naturally a beer was necessary to get us through it.) And during the Scrubs episodes, I sewed 2 belts! I just have 1 to go!

So why don't I stop confusing you by going backwards, shall I?

Anyway, I've had a very productive and enjoyable day. Haven't had a chance to touch my guitar or flute yet, but I hope to in July. And I haven't finished the book I'm currently reading, which I wanted to finish before going home Monday, but I probably won't. I'll just be sure to finish it before I leave for Italy.

Tomorrow (today?), I need to pack, tidy up the apartment a little bit, and THE NEW PORNOGRAPHERS SHOW IN THE EVENING!!!!
I will probably make myself mac n cheese for breakfast, haha. Love it!

Anyway, I need to go wash my feet, get ready for bed, and do some reading. Hopefully kitten cuddles will follow.

Goodnight, my dear (and few) readers! <3

do you like lady gaga?!

YOU CAN BET LIAM NEESON'S ASS ON IT!

Hahaha all I can think of is "Dude looks like a laaadaaaayyy!"
And no, haha.

So you like piercings and you like corsets. What about corset piercings?

I think corset piercings are absolutely beautiful.

However, I cannot get past the impracticably of the piercing. Some piercings are only mildly invasive and/or take little adjustment, but I am far too clumsy to be able to wear clothing without tearing them out. Plus, it would hard-core bother me that I cannot see them well enough to take care of them while they heal.

So those who can have them and can take care of them correctly, I respect their dedication. And I love their body art.

I have a documentary called Modify, directed by Jason Gary, on my Netflix, actually. Can't wait to watch it! I watched one called A Jihad for Love last night. It's about the quest for gay Muslims to rectify Islam and their sexual orientation. I definitely recommend it.

Anyway, I hope I answered your question! Feel free to ask me more questions about piercings and body modification! It's a passion of mine, in theory if at not in practice. I wish I could, though!
