Jennifer is smelly and blogs about music a lot. She is to the guitar as Tommy Wiseau is to film.
This blog is full of poop and butts.

RAT UPDATE
He’s a lot better and might actually pull through.
Pet stores are still hell holes.
That is all.

[W]hat would be really interesting for people to see, is how beautiful things grow out of shit. Because nobody ever believes that. You know, everybody thinks that Beethoven had his string quartets completely in his head. They’d somehow appeared there and formed in his head. Before he—and all he had to do was write them down and they would kind of be manifest to the world. But I think what’s, what’s so interesting and what would really be a lesson that everybody should learn is that things come out of nothing. Things evolve out of nothing. You know, the, the tiniest seed in the right situation turns into the most beautiful forest. And then the most promising seed in the wrong situation turns into nothing. And I think this would be important for people to understand, because it gives people confidence in their own lives to know that that’s how things work. If you walk around with the idea that there are some people who are so gifted, they have these wonderful things in their head, but you’re not one of them, you’re sort of a normal person, you could never do anything like that, then you live a different kind of life, you know. You, you could have another kind of life where you can say, where you say, well, I know that things come from nothing very much and start from unpromising beginnings, and I’m an unpromising beginning, and I could start something.

missvoltairine replied to your post: My poor rat is seriously ill. Again. I’m so angry…
i feel that way about all rodent pets. I had a guinea pig for a few years and when she died I swore off anything smaller than a cat forever.
I want another rabbit. They live ~10 years and very rarely get sick. The rabbit I used to have was loose in the house like a cat or dog and didn’t even need to be litter trained.

My poor rat is seriously ill. Again. I’m so angry at the pet store I got them from - they were fucking born sick. What kind of shit is that? They were already showing symptoms when I got them and I would have noticed if I’d known anything about rats.
He’s got an ear infection that’s totally destroyed his ability to balance so he rolls around. He can’t even get over to the water I’ve put next to him so I have to feed him it with an eyedropper. I’m leaving for Europe in a week so I really can’t afford to take him to a vet (plus he’d probably only live another six months anyway, rats don’t live long). I feel so terrible for him and I wish I could do more but it’s really not possible. I’ve been feeding him bits of human antibiotics but it doesn’t seem to be doing anything. The eye on the infected side of his head is cloudy and awful and I suspect he’s going blind.
I’m done with rats. They’re too stressful.

We noticed our cat-themed word magnets had the word “pussy” in them.
Hours later…

Canadians, as portrayed by Japanese textbooks.
Accurate.
Never have I seen anything so true.

Roman good luck wind chime (tintinnabulum). 1st Century CE.
Placed in gardens, these sorts of wind chimes were thought to bring good luck, as well as ward off evil spirits.
I am going to make a flock of these and decorate my whole front yard with them.
Yes.

I watched the second-last episode of House last night and - wow - the only character who even resembles what I remember is Wilson. The guy who plays him is easily the most effective actor on the show. He was actually making me feel things even though his lines were like watching him vomit up garbage. I hope he breaks it big after this because my god does he ever deserve it. Hugh Laurie is still a really good actor but the dialogue they give him is so inhuman I don’t think Mr. Spock could have sold it. It was almost like watching a parody of itself. What happened to the snappy back-and-forths?
When did House turn into House fanfiction?

- Me: Wow... this is getting incredibly gay.
- Jay: That's the only reason I'd tell you to watch House.
- House: Foreman's trying to date me.
