Everything and anything annoys the crap out of me lately, and I feel so restless it's really starting to get to me. I try to rise above it though, and keep trying to push myself harder. That's why I just sent an application to an internship in LA for next fall. I missed out on one that seemed perfect last winter because I was scared, but I need to stop pulling myself back.

Sidenote to CrazyTaraWitch: I know sweetsatinlover well, and she is indeed an amazing person she's helped me out when I needed someone to talk to (and the crazy part is that I knew her before I even registered here. The world is a much smaller place than we think...

Holy cow: both Neal Stephenson and Jane Espenson went to the same high school I did. (For college hoops fans, so did Harrison Barnes). Espenson confirmed that Riley's family is from near Huxley because it's right near Ames.

Woah.

Last night I began color-coding my June quotes. It's taking an absurd amount of time, but it's fun and it helps me know where I need to add in non-Doctor-Who quotes to keep to my at-least-one-non-Who-quote-between-each-Who-quote rule, and where I need to add Doctor Who quotes to keep things balanced (cause it looks quite silly if there are 3 or 4 non-blue quote between blue quotes some places but only 1 non-blue quote between blue quotes throughout most of the document).

In related facts, I am a geek.

I was five when my older half-sister got married. As she danced with my dad at the reception my great aunt sat naxt to me and said, "One day when you get married you'll be up there dancing with your daddy like that. Won't that be fun?"
I looked at her very seriously and told her, "Aunt Jannie, I'm not getting married. I have much too much to do!"
That was the way I felt until I got into about high school (though I still have much too much to do). I think it's one of the most-told stories in my family.
