Grandmother, stepmother charged with running girl... →
Two Alabama women were accused of murder on Wednesday for allegedly killing a young girl by forcing her to run for three hours without stopping, authorities said.
The running was apparently a punishment for Savannah Hardin, 9, who died on Monday at Children’s Hospital in Birmingham from dehydration and low sodium, a condition common in marathon runners, according to Natalie Barton, Etowah...

But NOPE! (Chuck Testa) I’ve got to work on ten pages of my thesis due Tuesday. On a Friday.
It’s also raining, which doesn’t lessen this desire at all.

I'll say this here and then never say it again.
I wish I could say that I was doing this for me and only me, but I’m not.
I wish I could say that it didn’t really matter, but it does.
I wish I could say that I often just nod my head and say, “OK,” but I don’t.
I’m selfish, I’m greedy, and I want things. Everybody wants things, even if they refuse to admit how much they want them.
But it’s...

The beginnings of the American Revolution,...
BRITISH EMPIRE: All right, fine, your stupid embargo worked. We won’t levy any more taxes-
AMERICAN COLONIES: Huzzah! Time to get drunk!
BRITISH EMPIRE: Except on tea.
AMERICAN COLONIES: What?
BRITISH EMPIRE: Get over it, it’s just tea. Seriously, where do you get this idea that you’re special and should never have to pay taxes? We hope that idea doesn’t go on to infect your political discourse centuries from now.
AMERICAN COLONIES: We’re not buying your stupid tea.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Are you being serious right now? What are you going to do, just stop drinking tea?
AMERICAN COLONIES: Yes. We’ll drink coffee.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Do you even know what that is?
AMERICAN COLONIES: No, but we’ve heard it’s good and we’re feeling surly.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Fine, whatever, we don’t even care what you do anymore.
BRITISH EAST INDIA COMPANY: Actually, we are pretty much bankrupt, so you need to make them drink the tea.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Oh, for—just drink the tea.
AMERICAN COLONIES: No.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Do it.
AMERICAN COLONIES: NO.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Drink it.
AMERICAN COLONIES: Fuck you.
BRITISH EMPIRE: Drink it or we’ll punch you in the face.
AMERICAN COLONIES: *Boston Tea Party*
BRITISH EMPIRE: What the hell?
AMERICAN COLONIES: We heard it was Indians.
BRITISH EMPIRE: That’s interesting, because we heard it was a bunch of colonists wearing paint and dressed in costumes that were remarkably similar to what a crowd of drunks who wanted to look like Indians would assemble if the only supplies they had were found in an alley behind a bar.
AMERICAN COLONIES: You get all types in Boston.
BRITISH EMPIRE: …*Coercive Acts*
AMERICAN COLONIES: Oh, it is ON.
I love when I can think about or watch a video of something funny that happened a while ago and still laugh my head off about it.
Life is good that way sometimes.

Did I miss something? As stupid as I’m allowing myself to sound right now, would someone care to enlighten me?

My life is not normal.
And I’m completely OK with it.
It seems like every weekend recently has brought some crazy chain of events. Drunken phone calls, awkward kisses, skinned knees, trips to the emergency room, restaurant fires, after-midnight trips to McDonald’s to pick up a friend. I’m pretty sure that these are what define your college years.
I don’t think I knew what it was like to be able...

Two times yesterday on two separate occasions, people told me that I had perfect handwriting.
I was sitting at work at the desk when Carolyn* looked at my notebook, opened it, and said, “Is that your normal handwriting?” Another person agreed, saying that to write that nicely would take a lot of effort. About 30 minutes later, I was in a meeting with one of my professors when I went...
I'm beginning to think this wound will never heal.
I’m literally talking about a wound. On my knee. Hurts like Hell and doesn’t want to scab.
Be like a good dog and HEAL ALREADY, KNEE. HEAL.

On this holiday of Valentine's Day.
I don’t like to measure worth on whether or not one is in a relationship or how successful or unsuccessful one’s love life has been, how many relationships they’ve had, or how many times they’ve been kissed. It doesn’t mean anything to do so; loving someone is only supplementary to life, even though it can immerse you once it happens. Besides, if I were to measure...
