raven: [hello my name is] and a silhouette image of a raven (photo negative)

"God, you thought we'd be like them homophobic weirdoes. As if."

Quote for the day, though I can't remember exactly who said it. The great thing is, it could have been any of a dozen people. I am having such a positive coming-out experience.

Other than that, I'm back at school and this is a bad thing. I still hate school as much as I did in kindergarten, and it doesn't seem like the same place any more. [livejournal.com profile] quackaquacka has complained it's like walking through a giant banana, and she has a point. Painting the entire place yellow and blue continues. Our "corporate colours", apparently. Since when were we corporate, I wanted to know.

Since always, yes, but public school or not, it's still a school. You can't treat it like an ordinary business. The library has thus far been left alone. I'm glad, although it dawned on me today that it's unlikely to be touched for a while; the amount of bookshelves, computers and assorted bits of assorted furniture that would have to be removed is too much to be practical.

We have, as yet, no snow. It started in the morning but didn't stick, much to my chagrin. I seem to have missed all the snow this year. It snowed when I was in India, I remember, and I think it snowed in Oxford not long after I'd come home.

Anyway. I got more birthday presents today (I don't think I object to this celebrating-it-for-a-month thing) from Sarah. A notebook from the Science Museum, rainbow-coloured (I loved it, so appropriate) and a t-shirt with the caffiene molecule on the front! Unfortunately it didn't give the full structural formula, but you can see it's based around a benzene ring with possibly two alkyl groups, with a weak base group attached, too.

I'm a geek. It is of the cool.

It was Miranda's birthday yesterday, which is also of the cool. She wouldn't let us sing.

Um. There were things of importance I had to say, but I can't really remember. I watched Letters From Pegasus (finally!) which I will review later, and I'll do the commentaries later as well (so far you want Love Story, Walking Barefoot..., and Like Dead Flowers), and blah, blah, I'm boring.

I'm also bored, and I shouldn't be. My to-do list has multiplied and spawned three child-lists. Instead of looking at them, I want to make smoothies. Banana ones with honey. And sort out my userpics. Anonymous person who bought me extra userpics, thank you again. It was terribly sweet of you. I did think of renewing it now it's expiring, but I've decided against it. I'm so picky that I still have twenty spaces left, and really, fifteen is quite enough for me (I have trouble filling even them sometimes).

Maybe smoothies can replace food? Or maybe coffee can? My parents are out and I so cannot be bothered to cook anything, and that includes putting stuff in the microwave to congeal.

It IS like walking through a banana. I never thought about that before.
A banana that smells like paint and has half painted blue doors throughout-what is with painting HALF A DOOR???

1. I saw it as more of 1/8 of a door, personally...

2. She wouldn't let us sing.

If any of you sing like I do, that's a good thing.

3. ...Yum. Congealed foodstuffs.

This is me not singing! See me not sing!

I would just like to randomly say thank you for getting me utterly addicted to Pegasus B. Although that could be a bad thing when this week-long break is over, but at the moment, there's nothing more appropriate for a rainy day that your version of Rodney/Daniel. Really.

Thank you! It's the good crack, isn't it? I hereby apologise in advance for the loss of all your time.

Thinking of birthday presents, did you ever send anything of that nature in my direction? I'm just wondering if I should be berating you for going to India where pretty things come from and not getting me anything, or Royal Mail for being pathetic wastes of space. 'Cos, you know, I could use a late birthday present this week, having just returned to My Doom school. Usually I like school, but not when it's this dull.

You're kidding. You never got it? *stares* Fuck.

No, I'm not kidding. Now I'm sorry I didn't ask sooner. *looks at Royal Mail site* You know when it was sent, so I think it's you who should fill in this (http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/customerservices;jsessionid=GNGD3QAPF33B0CRAZRLUOSQKEDGFQQ2K?catId=400144&pageId=cs_filter&csd=late&gear=customerservices) form. (Assuming, and I think it's unlikely, but just check it didn't meet one of these (http://www.royalmail.com/portal/rm/jump3?catId=400144&mediaId=15500181) problems-- it could, I guess, and without my knowing about it, have contain something they're not allowed to carry.)
