a little geezer in what was either a buick or a cadillac zipped around a blind corner about a block from where i was halfway out in the intersection and then didn't slow down. i kept going since it was too late to go back and he sort of swerved to go around in front of me but there already wasn't room. then he finally slams on the brakes say five feet from my driver's door, making this bitchy face, and honks. what-ever. was not fast enough to do any serious damage to the car had he not stopped, i don't think, but don't want to find out on the door which is right next to me, you know?
zipped around, transferred from money market account to the one i'm about to close--it overdrew because a debit transaction went through several months late. going to close that fucker next and open a more local one so i can use atms. >.> and meanwhile photocopied for big!gay!andy, who now owes me more than $90, in the science library and then the main one, where they store the overflow--made cute pudgy bearded desk clerk boy fetch me up an entire cartful of l'academie des sciences de paris comptes rendus hebdomadaires from as far back as the 1860s. am v/ exhausted now and SO glad i did not in fact go to the park earlier.

harry/snape lols
17 Apr 2003 07:07 pmi went back to read the 'three months ago today' entries (checking if some modifications to my custom style looked okay) and found this thread discussing this piece of snape/harry badfic. possibly i should write it after all!
silviakundera: I brain just keeps tee heeing and giving me stuff like,
"You Are A Big, Sexy Man
-Harry"
"Let's Have Sex
-Harry"
"I Am Gay. R U?
-Harry"
"Love You Long Time?
-Harry"
me: "Mr. Potter,
While I cannot condone either your puerile sentiments or your chosen method of expressing them, and certainly cannot abide your handwriting, I admit to a certain emotion upon receipt of your missive. Disgust, most likely. Nonetheless, if you wish to continue in this enterprise, far be it from me to stop you. Indeed, far be it from me to stop any of your lawless adolescent schemes, although you yourself may judge how far I am from such attempts.
-S.S."

news of the weirdish
17 Apr 2003 07:14 pmbetter than fanfic? a battle report of some fierce and fast confrontations between scale model tanks built on little red wagons. they fire paint balls.
no, i'm not joking! and i didn't get the link from news of the weird, either!
in OTHER wtf news, i just re-organized all of my bookmarks into folders and some of the folders are sadly bare. i need to go bookmark all those main fic archives and whatnot. sort of a complacent 'whoa.' like the placidly evil narcissa malfoy whom i <3 ever so much from that fic i read yesterday via a link from
camillafarfalla.
edit. hahah! but this is from news of the weird: Scientists at the University of Southern California will soon begin testing an artificial brain prosthesis (a silicon chip that mimics the hippocampus), which, if successful, can help people who cannot store future and recent memories of their experiences. One problem with the project (according to a March story in New Scientist): Subjects might not remember anything about the research or consenting to participate in it.

PENIS transplant?
In a three-hour operation in February at the Nil Ratan Sircar Medical College Hospital in Calcutta, India, doctors performed what they claimed was the world's first penis transplant. Dr. Ashok Ray, lead surgeon, had been in the process of removing a troublesome second penis on a 1-year-old boy when someone elsewhere in the hospital informed him that a baby boy had just been born without one.[Courier-Mail (Brisbane), 2-25-03]
