EDIT: I tried to do songs that I was actually listening to for each time. Like, I know I could think of a better song than the Korn one, but it's high school for me, so there you go.

Your body regenerates itself every 90 days. All of the internal cells that it's through with come out via your pee or poo. I didn't realize that I shit out my liver every 90 days, but there you go.

My experience with Audis is that if you don't pour money into them to keep them maintained (or don't know that someone else has), they can easily fall to crap and become money pits. That's what happened with my boyfriend. I like them better than Volvos though. Those things are crazy ugly!

I know I'll be kicked out of the comic book club for saying so, but I checked out the graphic novel from the library and got bored enough with it that I returned it less than a quarter of the way through.

As an aside, are those new characters outside the regular superhero world, or recycled from other comics?

Did you guys notice the bulletproof glass around Jon's desk for the Musharrif interview?

My birthday was pretty good. No parties (unless you count me and my two "diet buddies" pigging out on cheesecake and Reese pumpkins tonight).

Okay I'm lying. My actual birthday day kind of blew because I was sick so I was miserable and I couldn't go out drinking because I had to work today and I hurt my elbow and work sucked. But my boyfriend got me a Treo, and that was awesome.

Now I feel ill from too much cheesecake.

I won't be having a party because honestly my friends aren't reliable enough that I could depend on a large group of people showing up, and plus it's awkward because they don't mingle very well with each other (because I'm in a couple of different groups).

I am friends with lots and lots and lots of art majors and dancers. They insist on having a theme party EVERY SINGLE TIME. And it's not something easy and stupid like Hawaiian shirt or grunge. It's like "Dress like your favorite Disney character" or "dress like a negative racial stereotype" or "cancer party". Note that the Disney character one included my friend painting his ENTIRE BODY in blue costume paint to be the Genie. It's amusing, but I can't keep up. And so I get sick of just wanting to hang out and see my friends, but instead they all chide me all night because I'm not in costume. I don't want to make an effort to stand around and get drunk with people.

DOWN WITH THEME PARTIES!!

I finally saw the Science of Sleep last night. I hate it when I feel too stupid to "get" a movie. It was pretty though.

Hah. Mo watches Regis.

That's a really tough situation. I went through it, but my advice is no good because I had a wonderful out. I was stuck in a class that I was absolutely not going to be able to pass. When I was on my way home from studying at 2am, the car I was in got hit by a drunk driver. I went to the hospital and everything and was already planning on suing the guy's insurance to get my medical bills covered. So, I said that because of the physical pain that I was in, I was no longer able to carry my heavy bags for class to campus each day. When I dropped out, I added the money I owed back to student loans into the total amount I was suing him for, and we got most of it, so I was covered.

Anyway, I would go and talk to your financial aid office. You're certainly not the only person who has been in this situation before and I'm sure they can tell you how to handle it.

My hair isn't curly, but it's thick as all get out. (So I get all of the annoying thickness without even having anything attractive about it - like being able to be curly if I am motivated to do so.)

I'm trying to grow my hair out right now and it's going horribly. I'm to the point where it's too long to look right when I put all my random goopy sticky products from the salon in, because I used to be having a messy spikey look. Now I just want it to lie down. When I just blow dry it, the crown is still static-y and cow-licky that it stand straight up and waves around (but only random strands, not all of it, so that it might be cute). So I have no idea what to put in it to make it calm the hell down.
