This is so weird.  I always read these descriptions of Capricorns, about how they're practical and patient and whatnot, and I always think there's no way I can be a Capricorn.  So I decided to take a test to find out what Zodiac sign fits my personality, based on things like what colors I like, how I spend my free time, and what kind of gifts I like to receive.  Lo and behold, I got this:

Discover your Zodiac Personality @ Quiz Me

Maybe there's something to this astrology crap after all. ;)

Tony Blair came out against Saddam Hussein's sentence, stating that he opposed the death penalty "whether it's Saddam or anyone else."

Funny how he opposes the death penalty for this very guilty Iraqi, yet had no problem with it for thousands of innocent ones.

I wrote the last essay in only a few hours and it's just as good as the other two.  Funny ha ha.

*Squee!*

Now I don't have to hate myself.

How on earth do the Republicans expect to get any votes with candidates like Dick Mountjoy and Michael Jackson?   Fureelz, guys.

Okay, so now Richard Burger tells me this:  "I would not apply to Harvard if you really want to return to California. I am sure that you will get into either UCLA and UCSanta Barbara, and with any luck, both of them."

WHY are you sure?  Do Stanish and Scrhreiber owe you some blood debt?  Am I a mere pawn in your clandestine schemings? Whence comes this creepy confidence?

If he's wrong, McDonald's patties aren't the only Burgers I'm going to be flipping next year.

I just had an epiphany.

 I shouldn't stress myself out over my grad school applications, because if I don't get it, it solves my why-didin't-I-take-time off problem.

I also had a flu shot.

 I had the bird book memorized at five too.

What is up with "Scarborough Fair" and "Girl From the North Country?"  Why are the lyrics so similar?  "Remember me to one who lives there; she once was a true love of mine?" Who copied whom?  It's been bothering me for a few years now and I just had to get it out.

Speaking of music...I haven't listened to a Beatles album all the way through in a long time.  They're still the best.  I just overdid it last spring or something. I am rediscovering Nine Inch Nails again, and not just because I'm feeling angsty.  It's absolutely brilliant music-making. Their early work is so pure. But who I've really gotten into is Tori Amos. She is probably my favorite muscian right now and has something for every single mood of mine.  Plus, she's female, and somehow right now that makes a difference.

I also absolutely adore Ryan Adams' album Gold.  It's so beautiful.  I should check out the rest of his stuff.
