And now for some 18th century romance

How scandalous!

No bohemian for me.

Well, I couldn't find the place to get them, but here are some more people who adopted characters:

Adopt-a-Collins

Someone went hog-wild and adopted them all (though they're rather neglected--none of them has a shrine to speak of). Scroll down to see what I mean.

Boo-urns!

My avatar's T-shirt is supposed to say "Celebrate Black History Month," but it only appears as a green blob. I tried to zoom up on the face and shirt so people could read it, but for whatever reason that formatting didn't carry over to the blog. So once again, it's an unreadable green block. Boo, yahoo.

Adopt a Bohemian?

Those of you familiar with RENT will get this, but still, huh??

Maybe I'll mosey on over to http://www.wildeggplant.com/ and see if I can get my own...

Happy Valentine's Day

Conversation hearts and sparkly stickers for all! I've been in a generous and festive mood all day--I think the morning instant coffee had more of a kick than I anticipated. Or maybe I just like an excuse to wear red and pink.

Tonight I'm taking Misha out to dinner, but he doesn't know where. Hee.

In other news:


P.S. Doesn't the cop in this card remind you of Homestar Runner?

Correction

According to Himi, a friend who just emailed me, a better translation of Eid Al Kbeer is not "Big Holiday" but "Greater Bairam." Thanks, Himi.

Fafblog!

This has MORE THAN earned the privilege of appearing on my sidebar: http://fafblog.blogspot.com/

Read the one about prophets appearing in tapioca.

February Resolutions

I promise myself I will not, for at least one month, buy food out of a vending machine on campus. No exceptions. If I am hungry, I will just have to walk a little further.

[Inspiration? A candy bar at the library was half the price of an entire box of cereal, and that's just ref***ing-diculus]

Dumbek

The instrument of the day (just because I found a cool sound clip):
