I’m really over seeing or hearing about the Kardashians.
They are so self promoting it’s ridiculous. Money, fame & themselves is all they really care about. I don’t know why girls idolise them.
A Mad Tea Party
In the chapter “A Mad Tea Party”, the Hatter asks a notable riddle: “Why is a raven like a writing desk?” When Alice gives up, the Hatter admits he does not have an answer himself. Lewis Carroll originally intended the riddle to be just a riddle without an answer, but after many requests from readers, he and others, including puzzle expert Sam Loyd, thought up possible answers to the riddle. In the preface to the 1896 edition, Carroll wrote:
Enquiries have been so often addressed to me, as to whether any answer to the Hatter’s Riddle can be imagined, that I may as well put on record here what seems to me to be a fairly appropriate answer,: “Because it can produce a few notes, though they are very flat; and it is nevar put with the wrong end in front!”. This, however, is merely an afterthought; the riddle as originally invented, had no answer at all”.[4]
Note that “nevar” is “raven” “with the wrong end in front” (backwards). Loyd proposed a number of alternative solutions to the riddle, including “Because Poe wrote on both” and “because the notes for which they are noted are not noted for being musical notes”.[5]
The Mayan Calendar and Other Crap
Did you hear?
The world isn’t going to end! We found more Mayan calendars to prove that the world is going to continue! The end of the 2012 calendar is actually just the end of a cycle. The world is going to continue for a long time. There ya go ya “prophets” and nimble minded movie execs. Get it together.
In the government they’re trying to make it so that you have to obtain an ID to vote in the Presidential election. This makes it hard for the elderly, minorities, and students to vote. I know that some elders do not have their birth certificates and even though they’ve been voting for this long, now they could lose their voting privileges because they can’t obtain an ID? They are also trying to make it so that college students can’t vote in their college town unless that is their residential town as well. This means if your HOME is Charlotte, NC and you go to UNC Greensboro and you want to vote in Greensboro, you can’t. You have to vote in Charlotte.
Lastly, a Metrosexual Black Abe Lincoln, did you hear?

Coastal Lovers
Lying here on the phone with my boyfriend and we’re talking about how and when we’ll see each other. He’s always talking about how much he has to save up to get me out there and how long I’ll stay…
He’s a whole country away from me. We aren’t close to the coasts that we live on, we are ON the coasts that we live on. California to North Carolina. We are “Transcontinental Lovers” as I like to say.
Being wishful and hopeful about when we will see each other is one way to keep smiles on our faces but eventually we’re going to get frustrated with waiting, so it’s just best that we stay real with each other.
This is not a break in our relationship. This is not a vacation. We will not be seeing each other soon. We are living our lives for the sole benefit of ourselves right now. He is out there to do what he needs to do to get on his feet. I am doing what I need to do out here to do the same. After we have accomplished at least a SIGNIFICANT part of our goals should we even look at the possibilities of flying me out there and having me stay for a while.
Until then we should just focus on ourselves and pushing each other to do what we have to do. Being honest with ourselves will save a lot of frustration and stress.
I miss him to death and if I saw him tomorrow it wouldn’t be soon enough
