And so we come to it at last: the setting sun of summer


I've lived through 20 summers now, and this one was the greatest. Without a doubt in my mind. These past two summers have been absolutely miserable, which made this one all the better. I've done things I never expected to do. I drove to South Carolina twice and found someone I care about deeply. I saw my first concert. I went to Busch Gardens and rode every roller coaster. I watched anime and enjoyed it. I got Jessica to watch Doctor Who! I played DnD and really liked it! I sat and read books! I relaxed and became more comfortable with myself and my life. I got fucking high! I challenged everything I knew and had adventures. Honest to God adventures.

It's hard to think that tomorrow I'll be back in real life. I don't intend to dread or suffer through the semester. I mean to kick its ass like last time, get amazing grades, and totally succeed. I aim to enjoy every day, even the really stressful ones. I will find light in the darkness. I will not let anything bring me down. I will have an amazing semester.

In which Jessica FINALLY finishes all of Eleven's episodes


We did it. The major goal of our summer, to get Jessica to watch all of Eleven's episodes of Doctor Who, has been completed. It is very rewarding and fantastic that we could do it.

I had an extremely awesome day with her, teaching her what bears, cubs, and otters are, showing off my pizza-making technique, giving her the excellent Totoro shirt and ThinkGeek surprise shirt, and general shenanigans. I'm glad to have spent so much time with her and Ashley this summer, it's helped make it the best one ever.

Also, Ashley, this video is amazingly well-fitting for Avatar. Shockingly so.

Playing Fable III all the time forever

I know this is small potatoes... but I got a hairpiece in the game that I've been wanting for ages that doesn't make my character look derpy and I finally got it! #Personalvictory

And now, a haiku


Thursday was busy
I went to Costco today
It rained on me... shit.

Malaise


Today, as I've mentioned elsewhere (Tumblr) was a day where I just felt out-of-sorts. Jesse being gone and the last week of summer going by, I've just felt very down. I really hate this feeling. I don't want to go back next week.

My mood has picked up as the day ended, but, all the same, I'm not so happy-go-lucky as I have been all summer long. I wish I could time leap and experience this whole summer again. It's been the best one ever.

Jessica, you will hate this song. Not only is it about gingers, you'll hate sound.

Meh

'Twas a very meh day. I got my books, but I just don't want to go back. At all.
