Quotes that get me through Winter

It snowed today. I thought winter was ending, but today was freezing and snowy. The snow didn't stick, but still. Also, as my previous post showed, I have lost all will to do work. I occupy by time doing stupid, random things that are probably aiding me in becoming obese. But I know Spring will be here soon. And then Summer and hopefully I'll be in London this summer, though that's looking increasingly unlikely with my financial situation. Blergh.

Anyways.

In people's eyes, in the wing, tramp, and trudge; in the bellow and the uproar; the carriages, motor cars, omnibuses, vans, sandwich men shuffling and swinging; brass bands; barrel organs; in the triumph and the jingle and the strange high singing of some aeroplane overhead as what she said; life; London; this moment in June. - Virginia Woolf Mrs. Dalloway

I can't wait for June.

Whoopi is such a lucky woman.

Wow

Wow I'm really glad next week is reading week because for the past few days the only things I have been able to productively do are:

- Eat a variety of foods including new recipes such as: Hayley's Trail Mix Cookies version 2 aka Dark Chocolate Banana Oatmeal cookies (which I made again today, but this time with more sugar!) and Grilled Cheese Baggette with mustard. I don't have a fancy name for that one.

-Facebook stalk everyone I have ever known.

-Stare out the window.

-Think constantly about food.

-Hit refresh over and over on my fav blogs.

-Think about Star Trek.

- Worry about money.

-Invent a new Astronaut Mike Dexter (I will never describe these because they're pitiful and truly exhibit why I'm single).

-Check my email every 3 seconds.

Things I have not been able to do- anything that will further my knowledge/degree, make me slimmer or improve my chances with men. OH WELL.

Daily Mail story of the mornin'

Another Laugh of the Morning

God I'm sad I missed the Super Bowl commercials

Laugh of the Morning

WIN or FAIL?

On Friday I went to an "International Potluck Dinner." IE- you were supposed to bring dishes that represented your homeland. I was going to make peanut butter cookies, but in the end I decided to go with a healthier alternative. A twist on "Hayley's Super Trail Mix Cookies" that I used to make last year. Essentially they were almost vegan dark chocolate banana oatmeal cookies. They were pretty good, but kind of bland. I didn't have any measuring cups so I had to do everything by guestimate and in the end I don't think I put enough sugar in them ughhh. But now I know! I think I'll make them soon for when Lianne visits.

Also, while cooking them I think I ate 1/3 of the raw dough. And that started a weekend of constant poor food choices. FML... or Win?

Literary Lol of the Day

McSweeney's funny with famous authors "predictions" of the Super Bowl results.

"James Joyce:

Thusly and thricely slaked he uptrod the spiral staircase and fancied for himself only a briny frieze.

— Give out, Jesuit, or forever in peace may you lie.

Sardonic, sardonic was the smile then adopted. It can twist forever (if the vicars will allow, if the oxen pull the plow).

— Dearly beloved, he quipped through shut mouth, did not Rapunzel cry from on high?

She skipped with a slow whistle to the first stone slab. As at Young Colin's, on the eve of Fata Morgana, all rose quietly. How could it be remiss?

Thanatopsis. Requiescat In Pace.

Prediction: Unclear"

Hahahahahahahahahahah
