A poor consumptive wretch

[fellmama]

Back in good ol' M-town, where it is EVEN COLDER than Walla Walla. Life is not fair.
In other news, I am a genius. Seriously. For Christmas, I brought my brother a wireless router. Result? We can be online at the same time, which means a very happy holiday for everyone. Also, I no longer have to sit in the freezing basement. My room is pretty cold, too, but at least I can feel my toes.

Five of my quirks:
1. I write down every book I read for fun: title, author, date finished. But never school books--I don't know why.
2. I always scroll to the bottom of my friends page; I never read the newest entries first.
3. I normally won't let Aspen tear the page off my daily calendar. Sometimes I'll let her do it as a treat.
4. Whenever I have dead time--walking somewhere, taking a shower, etc.--I tell myself these elaborate stories, like I'm writing a novel aloud. They're usually genre fiction: history, mystery, fantasy . . . even a romance novel, but that one didn't last because I got impatient with the heroine.
5. I can't sit still and talk to somebody. I like it when people come over because then my room gets cleaned.

For the non-hobo contingent:

Gary Trudeau is the wind beneath my wings.

So really you gave him a bowling ball that says "Homer" on it?

Excellent.

Essentially, yes. He noted himself that it was kind of a selfish present, so I told him I'd be happy to return it. I believe the exact response was "nonononononononoNONONO!"

Every year the majority of presents I get are books other people want to read. Gah.

My mother always gives me things she wants to read and is then hurt when I'm not enthusiastic.

Yay Gary Trudeau! I think that one should go on my door with the intelligent falling article.

I agree.
