too sober too sober too sober too sober

Yeah and its sad too...

Because this is a great blog!

echo echo echo echo

well this thing has been deserted for a while.

Lflynn/ Bike injuries

Yeah, Lflynn.... you should have gone to the hospital when you bloodied your leg this last time. You could have internal leg bleeding.

getting attention from guys is weird.

i almost fell off my bike this morning in the middle of clarendon. ooops. now i have a bloody leg. mysteriously, no blood got on my pants. sweet!

So it's been a while...

I had a lot of catching up to do on the blog. I feel so out of everything...sad day. But this, this I thought needed to be said:
Pledge,
I feel my tongue is too big for my mouth when I'm, you know...on a different plane of existence. I agree it is a crazy feeling but have never really thought about it in my day to day life--pledge, you are a freak! However, I think my late grandmother must have felt that way all the time. Her tongue would have rivaled that of the epic gene simmons. Once, when she was in the hospital, I saw it and have been scarred ever since. She was trying to get her straw (for those juice things with the foil tops, you know, the ones you get in elem. school and the hospital?!) and she stretched it out just trying her damnedest to get that straw and it was like a frickin giraffe's tongue. Ridiculously creepy. I have never recovered. Oh, also, she didn't have her teeth in at the time thus multiplying the creepy factor by about five thousand.
Also, on a completely unrelated note,is there still an eight second delay for live TV? Because, if so, someone was sleeping on the job during this past week's SNL. Did anyone else notice the f bomb in the biker chit chat sketch? Epic. She can now join the ranks of the amazing daron malakian.

That's all for now!

~Sco Sco

also, I dont know what I want to do with my life but im glad i picked design.

Whoa it is 1:20. isnt it crazy how time flies when you are pdubbing? Its prob one of my favorite past times. I feel like this year is different. I wonder how next year and then the next and the next and next are going to be.

me: we got a new house boy right?
iesha: yah, his name is derek i think. he might be perfect for you, he's sweet
me: that's alright, i'm taken. but thanks
iesha: oh i'm sorry
me: no worries, thanks. you're practically my pimp, iesha
iesha: naw, i ain't getting paid for that

Pledge: Just the tongue thing? Not like his penis?
Mallory: Hahahaha! Yes, just tongue. I am literally cracking up.
Pledge: Haha.
Mallory:"Well, if you didn't give a blow job, it didn't count." --Pledge's thought

i sure hope this is all in my head, cause then i could get it out. but i don't know how to get it out. why would i make this up? this is a weird thing to make up.

-pledge's reflections on her previous quote

PLEDGE! QUOTE!

do you ever feel like your tongue is too big for your mouth? Cause thats how i feel right now.

Its like pressing against my teeth.

I guess maybe my teeth could have moved. But that would be weird. why would my teeth move backwards.

i'm serious! i tried to look in the mirror to see, but it's hard to look at your tongue in a normal place in your mouth when it's open.

I wonder if this is how Gene Simmons feels.

most amazing conversation ever:
me: "yea, dons guns is on 38th and lafayette, where pledge works."
mom: "why don't you take over pledge's job for the summer?"

pledgie and peggy

talking about aim screen names

peggy: and the story behind yours...
peggy: ?
pledge: longview is a greenday song that was one of my favs when i made it in hs and 203 is my area code
pledge: well done
Breakaway Zzz: what is the song about?
pledge: masterbation



here is a bonus quote:
jenna: on your fb it says you are interested in men. ???
pledge: why?
jenna: i just didnt know you swung that way
pledge: there was no "black men" button
jenna: HAHAHAHA

pledge talk

once again...more hilarious pledge quotes.
for the record: we were talking on the phone and she was completely sober.

"shes's an idiot. i cant wait to see her"

"come riley. do you want an ice cube? youd better give me a kiss, or else i wont give you an ice cube"

"oh my gosh. i had a really good thought today, and i hope it comes true."

"where did my cereal go??...maybe i ate it....Oh here it is!!!!!!"

on the same note, i found this convo on my phone between me and el bin (el bin and i) that we had on aim, and it is great. i am describing pledge's private plane.

daronsgirl81505: omg it is crazy. she has male black flight attendants for...well you know. it also has a bar for tequila, a king size bed that is hella comfy, and a sweet sound system for blasting green day.

chatting with pledge

longview203: i can't believe they did christie raod
longview203: and f.o.d.
longview203: ahhhh
daronsgirl81505: hey could you do me a favor
daronsgirl81505: could you fuck off and die
daronsgirl81505: thanks
longview203: lol
daronsgirl81505: wait dont
daronsgirl81505: stop!
daronsgirl81505: dont really do that!
longview203: too late
daronsgirl81505: fuck
daronsgirl81505: are you dead?
longview203: this is the ghost of pledge
daronsgirl81505: well fly your ass to indy
longview203: okayyy
daronsgirl81505: hurry, it should take like 2 seconds since you are dead
daronsgirl81505: lets get wasted when you get here
longview203: ghosts don't drink
longview203: shit
daronsgirl81505: ghosts can do whatever they want dammit!
longview203: okayyy

This just in...

Yeah the other Lauren Binning is from another country. So suck it.

Here's the thing lFlynn

Facebook is worldwide.... So basically All those other LBins could be from other countries.

that's all cool and stuff but...it's based on statistics. and so it can be wrong. which it is. go to facebook and type your name in.

suckerrrr.

but your name is baller, because our nicknames rhyme. and i don't know why no one gave you a nickname before me.

Whoa!! My name is BALLER!

I should just keep going with this I guess

I for some reason thought I was turning 21 a lot sooner than I really am.

I like baking

I dont like stepping in puddles with bare feet when you dont know how the puddle got there and you have a dog.

Its weird how things change. I cant explain really what I mean. But if someone could figure out how to see inside my head they would understand really what I am saying.

it really pisses me off when my toes crack open on the crease on the bottom when I wear not real shoes. It hurts.

My dad thinks I cuss to much. I think I need to cuss more.

There are tons of fucking annoying people in this world... and a lot of crazies too. Sometimes I wonder where all the normal people are hiding.

Apple is baller.

I had this dream where I needed a huge dog to save me and everyone kept bringing me little shit dogs and I was like no!!! I need a huge dog. It was really frustrating. Anyway, I want a mastiff puppy now. Too bad things cost money.

Basically every day it seems people become more obsessed with money. What the fuck people.

My computer and the lamp are making this freaky rainbow thing. But like in squares instead.

Also...

Stop stealing my identity. Its rude.

L Flynn...

Some people like to have two forms o birth control f just to be safe. So I mean like if you told her about the condoms thats cool but its better if she had the pill as well. Just saying.

Also, insurance is fucked.

and I have been in this weird mood lately where I am scared of a lot of things. Its not a good mood to be in. I think I might be stressed I dont know... that doesnt make sense.

I am also like really sad lately because pledge keeps blowing off our p-dubs and I miss her like a sandwich misses cheese or something like that that goes together really well. You know?

i miss my swangers too.

connecticut (my house, not little flynn's rich southern homestead) is farther than flordia. but it is sad that you are all alone.

people are dumb about their birth control. this girl last night at work couldn't get hers because her insurance didn't cover it and when i told her this she was like "so what am i supposed to do, just not have it?" and i said that she could pay the entire price or drive to a pharmacy in massachusetts where her insurance would work. and i wanted to tell her that the condoms were in aisle 13b but i didn't. she had a lot of 'tude. i should have told her that pledge has more sex than anyone and gets along fine with no birth control.

also...i went the the bar the other night just for a few beers with lily. and i saw a million people from high school, but i thought it was pretty dumb that i'm this old and haven't been out in my hometown so we went. anyway, then i locked my keys in the car and my dad had to come get me. hahahaha...i suck. it was hilarious and awful.

i miss my swangers.
if my calculations are correct, i am technically supposed to be the furthest from naptown in the summer, yet i am the only one left in naptown. what gives? haha

You know those baby beauty pageants?

Where they dress up the little 3 year olds and they look super creepy? 

I was just thinking we should enter pledge in those. If she wins we could make a lot of money. 

She will have to learn a dance or something though. 

today, i helped gut a 39 inch fish. it was awesome. i identified the guts, assuming fish anatomy isn't too different from mammal anatomy. minus the gills and stuff.

i miss you truckers. i'm going to moon you all so bad!

I have a sister (and I'm not talking about you guys)

Okay, so last night I had a dream that my mom had a baby. It was so weird. I was like "What?! Mom, there is a 21 year age difference, don't you think that's weird?!" And she was like "ehh, no, I mean not really." and I was like "This is nuts! You're nuts!!" But then I saw the baby and it was soo cute. Her name was Michelle. Like the little sister in full house.

well...

well when stuff goes down and you are trying to cope with it and get over it, it is a lot easier when things make sense. trust me.

i think we find reason so that we can make sense of things. cause it's human nature to make sense of stuffff.


today at work, i rang out this guy who bought his perscription, which was $3 or so, and $200 in best buy gift cards. he paid with nine cvs gift cards of $25 each. apparently, he does this frequently. this is crazy! he is clearly scamming cvs, but i don't know how. maybe he just stole a pack of gift cards and figured out how to activate them somehow and make them all $25. anyway, i think i would be more okay with it if he was ripping off cvs to pay for prescriptions or if he was smart about it and didn't go to the same store every time or used it to buy toliet paper and the things people need that cvs sells. but no. this is all very intriguing to me. i mean, stealing is bad, and this guy is not good at acting like he knows what he is doing cause he gets all twitchy and nervous and stuff, but the whole thing is interesting/crazy.

Reason

Things don't happen for a reason; we examine our lives, what has happened, etc. and extract reason from it. It's how we learn and grow. We find reason where reason does not exist in order to change, adapt, and become the people we are--otherwise we'd always stay the people we were.

i don't really think that things happen for a reason. i think people want to think that way and use it as a coping mechanism and stuff but i think life is pretty...uncontrollable. and definitely how things work in life is incomprehensible.

i don't really like the thought that i could have gone to any university and eventually met people i love as much as my dinos, but maybe. i think if i went somewhere else i would have been shaped in a completely different way. but i didn't really go to butler for any reason. i didn't even want to go.

i don't think big, catastrophic bad things like almost dying in a motorcycle accident happen so things like your family driving more carefully can occur. i mean, that is a byproduct but not reason enough in my mind for the accident to occur in the first place.

i think there are a million different paths our lives can take and all the decisions we make, big and small, determine which way our life goes. i could have made the decision to go to another college, but i would be a different person and my life would be on another path.

this was all more eloquent in my head.

dinos!!!!

just like pledgie said on twitter, i also miss my core. its great having 2 of them here, but its not the same without everyone being together! i miss the other half of the core!!!! boosh:-(

So...

No one ever responded with their thoughts on things happening for a reason. Im just curious about what you guys think.

all blacks game?

so i am on the phone with pledge and i tell her about this "all blacks game" post and she looks it up on the blog and all of a sudden she goes "ooooooo..." she was very excited. it was awesome. but i dont think it means what she thinks it means.

I Hazed Pledge!

Pledge: this guy at work on fri was like "i'm going to call you quiet katie cause you never talk"

El Bin: omg

Pledge: and i do! he's just never aroudn

El Bin: god that is like my least favorite joke EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE DO THAT

because then i get even quieter

Pledge: i know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah like what do you say to that?

El Bin: yeah

Pledge: i was just like "i do, but you're on the other side of the office" and he was just like (jokingly) "well speak up"

El Bin: god

im just want to be like i would talk but you are so annoying and i can never get any words in

Pledge: hahahaha

El Bin: but i never think of that when it actually happens

Pledge: haha

yeah

i just hate it when ppl who dont even know me peg me as quiet

like you dont even know that we never had a chance to have a real convo

plus maybe i just don't have anythign to say to you

El Bin: yeah

im like who cares if i am quiet anyway

does it bother you?

because that doesnt make any sense

Pledge: right

exactly

El Bin: god!!!!!!!

Pledge: what

El Bin: i was just being pissed about stupid people who make me want to be quieter

Pledge: oh haha

yes

Pledge: so when she called you 10 min later was she at home or something?

El Bin: no she was at work

Pledge: wait

so this was before she went?

El Bin: no after

Pledge: she went to work after?

El Bin: yeah a few hours later

Pledge: oh they wen t to lunch?

El Bin: yeah i think so

haha actually i have no idea what you are talking about

Pledge: omg

hahahaha

i'm totally typing in the wrong aim box

El Bin: i know

that was fucking amazing

Pledge: hahah

i'm seriously laughing out loud now

El Bin: haha i cant believe that went on for so long

do it again i was having fun

Pledge: lol

El Bin: im still laughing

Pledge: omg me too

El Bin: i just hazed the shit out of you

Pledge: omg

you sooo did

save that to show jenna

Funny!

Releasing roosters onto the rugby field periodically during an All Blacks game = funny.

FUCKING CAT!

The cat just climbed up my face...

you may be asking yourself: "wait El Bin how does a cat climb up a persons face"?

The answer: With its claws. 

Don't worry ice made the bleeding stop and the swelling go down a little. 

Oh and for future reference I would have to say the worst place to have cuts on your face would have to be on your lips. 

mocha battled with a full grown cow. mocha lost, but i still love her.

Awesome ..

My flat mates spent the last week planning and drinking lots of tea so that they could hide the tea bags all over my room while I was gone. My favorite so far has to be the smiley face of tea bags I found when I pulled back my duvet.... or maybe the one tacked to the ceiling so I cant reach it. 

did you know that all of china is in one time zone? time zones are so weird. necessary, but poorly laid out, or so it seems. i guess it is up to individual states/countries and there is no international time zone authority, but it doesn't make sense that you can drive north in india to nepal and go back in time.

the other day this guy came through the drive-thru at work and i couldn't give him the information he wanted and he was pissed and he said "thanks for nothing" and drove away. i had his twenty bucks and his medication. whoooops. he had fingerless leather driving gloves. these are not terribly uncommon in my experience of giving people drugs directly to their car.

i haven't listened to music much at all since i've been home, it's very weird. i just haven't felt like it. not that i am opposed to it, i just never put it on. but...i have never been that person! so weird.

today i went with my parents out to look at cars, because they are probably going to buy one, but not for me. i don't want a car of my very own to pay insurance on and maintain. anyway, it's weird that since i was there the car sales people would always ask if they were buying a car for me. ha. can't a girl just go out with her parents?? at one dealership, i said no, and the salesman asked me what kind of car i drove. i said a bike. he did not understand this. my dad thought he was an asshole. then we went out to dinner. then we went to other car dealerships after they were closed. this is better because you don't have to talk to anyone, but you can see what cars they have on the lot. crafty, no?

my grandpa's calf got stolen. who steals a cow? he was really upset. this whole calf debacle prompted me to wonder how my grandpa got his cows pregnant, because he hasn't had any bulls in a long time. turns out they sell cow sperm and he injects it into his cows when he wants more cows. he drove to vermont to go get another calf and it's handfed. i haven't met this new calf yet, but i am pumped. i'm going to take mocha to meet him soon.

you people would like Duff...

"you're right..how else would we pick up 16 year olds that look like they have down syndrome? we need her."

-Duff

i wonder...

i wonder if i'm still one of the favorite blogs of the 'what would sarah ida do' blog. haha.

What are your thoughts on "things happen for a reason"?

38th street.

i feel really out of place when i roll up to the 38th st rally's drive thru with cracka music on.

quote of the day

i first heard it on SNL...it is from a judge judy skit...cheri o'teri is one of the greatest snl cast members ever

"DON'T PEE ON MY LEG AND TELL ME IT'S RAINING!"

also, this is the title of one of judge judy's real books. haha.

i just think that this is such a great quote, and it should be integrated into society and be just as popular as twitter.

At work I had to fill out this form. One section was to fill out your ethnicity. The only choices were "Hispanic/Latino" or "Not Hispanic/Latino." Is this normal?

daronsgirl81505: YOU ARENT A PLEDGE.
daronsgirl81505: YOU CAN DO IT
lbinning1321: i did
daronsgirl81505: i knew you would

side note: conan just said 'tom hanks is coming out here soon!' and 90% of the audience cheered. then he said 'and green day is coming out later!' and like 10% of the audience cheered. haha.

sometimes i always think about taking a nap, especially during class. but when i get home from class, i always get distracted from taking one...hell, i even read a book today! wth

sometimes, i wonder what a swanger is. sometimes i think a swanger is a swinger, but then i realize it is spelled differently.

i think that everyone should try really hard to fall in love with someone of a different race and then someday the world will be all the same race. but people will still try to have races cause...people are weird. but more people have inter-racial marriages now than before, so eventually there will be only one race if we keep on going this way. but it will take a long time. i wish i could travel in time to that time just to see what it is like.

sometimes when i type in naptown swangers, i think about being a swanger. 

sometimes when i type in naptown swangers, i think about taking a nap.

"Oh, so you're rich"

So, I emailed this to Jenna after it happened but Laura just told me I should blog it. I always forget about this thing. So here it is:

"I have a funny story to tell you. Actually, first, someone just said awl. hahaha. Okay, the story: Yesterday at work someone who was giving an orientation presentation to us was asking where we were from. When I said Monroe, he goes, 'Oh, so you're rich.'"

haha

boho is funny...or maybe i'm the only one that thinks this is funny...w/e
"I need a head count of those who live within reasonable driving range of Indy to plan some cookout/planning sessions for the summer (cookout? you say. Ha! You think I wouldnt hold out a carrot or a po-boy to get you to stay current and prepared?)"
boho's labbies like food...and he is a REALLY good cook. lol

to mlk:

i just posted a comment on your blog from january. i had a feeling that you would never find it, so here it is. haha
http://naptownswangers.blogspot.com/2009/01/snow-day.html?showComment=1243660638108#c8442172453539023575

How I found out I have no friends...

Jenna: youre el bin!

LBin: you forgot my name is lauren

Jenna: what?

LBin:you forgot my name

Jenna: haha whatever

stop being lame i was kidding

haha

I think quality should almost always win over quantity. 

I want to be in  a secret society. 

i recently purchased a pair of designer skinny jeans at a stellar price. they came in the mail today. before mallory goes nuts, i don't know how i feel about them. when i see people wear skinny jeans i think ooh, nice. like...most of the time i actually like how they look on the other person. but i don't know man...they are weird. it is weird for my calves to be restricted. also they are a little long.

i don't know when i became a person insecure about my own style. somewhere around freshman year, but then i was cured in ireland, and it came back last year. weird. so days it's fine, but usually not when i am going on a date or buying something considered stylish. otherwise, i'm happy left at my own devices.

also, my hair is now the length of j'little's. i put it in a ponytail today and it was so bouncy. usually i hate this length on me, but it is easy to put in a bun and will be easier to straighten (cause i do that so often?). and...yah. whatever. many less dreads will form. hahaha. i celebrated the bounciness by moving my head back and forth and saying bouncy bouncy bouncy. my mom did not appreciate this.

i'm felt like myself for the first time since i got home. it came in flashes...but better than nothing.

Nancy

If Nancy were sneakers o'toole the only way she would take her sneakers off is if EO told her to do it. Then she'd take her sneakers off and call them back asking if was okay to keep her socks on.

So, guess what?

I ate avocado on Sunday and I didn't get sick!!!

Okay, but actually it was this 7-layer burrito from Taco Bell, so who knows how real that avocado stuff was. I am now open to experimentation, though.

classic el bin part 2

daronsgirl81505: omg american history x is such a good mooooviiieeee
lbinning1321: yeah it is
lbinning1321: isnt there a part when the guy gets the shit fucked out of his face on the curb?

daronsgirl81505: haha yes
daronsgirl81505: the nazi
lbinning1321: yeah i dont like that part

texas, dallas...whatever you'd like to call it

i think this is perfect.

So...

its always fun when your flat mate decides to follow you on twitter and you have to go back and delete everything you wrote about her and her stupid cat. 

Jenna

Write this down. 'You're the balls and the tits'

Someone in my lab just said that to bohannon

www.mylifeisaverage.com

amazing. i am going to start staying average my life instead of fuck my life. pickle and i will battle.

drog quote

my first title!

drog went to the speedway today with malface. this is what he had to say.

"i had some guy ask me where something was in the speedway. i laughed inside, like i know where shit is! he had a gold tooth. also some guy put his arm around me. i was not pleased. i indicated such by calling him "buddy" multiple times"

i don't know why this was so funny to me.

Why, yes I am...

They call me BK Mal.

el bin is awesome.

and pledge is not. the end.

p.s. i wonder if mallory is related to the great 'burger king'

girl...we post! whatev.

elizabeth edwards on the daily show is being cool. i still will probably not read her book, but...props anyway.

i get acne at the weirdest times.

mocha is so good at telling time! she has been waiting for my mom to come home for like...four hours. at the door. my mom is not coming home until sunday. i wonder when mocha will figure this out.

i haven't been streaking in a long long time.

i should find a way to virtually moon you all. that would be awesome.

Thoughtsish

I think I need to get rid of twitter because no one has posted on this in a long time and that makes me sad. 

Fish and chips are good.

Its nice when it is rainy and you dont have anything to do and you can just sit in bed. 

Im making toast right now.

I just took a quiz to find out what american accent I have.... apparently I am from Connecticut or NY. If I were from Connecticut I would be from the richest part like Pledge. 

Also, according to the quiz I just took... I could be a pirate... duh didnt need a quiz to tell me that. 

P.S. its 10am and raining outside and I dont have class... and I am in bed taking online quizzes... dont make fun of me you wish you were doing the same.

I'm more masculine than feminine. 

I feel like this is about the point you all will stop reading this post... if you havent already.. but I am going to keep writing. 

I would be vanilla ice cream .... bull shit... boring

I think I know the answer to this one....

I scored a 74% on a spelling test... not bad... for me

I dont know why the internet thinks I am such a nice fun person... cuz i'm not:

I bet pledges aura would be brown... mal would be like rainbow... Laura would be green... jenna would be like blue... duh! and Scolesies would be yellow green and orange all mixed together to make one sweet ultimate crazy color that no one else could ever be... or red. 

My flat mates just told me I look like a crack whore... awesome

Lauren: Streakers are funny.

Scolesies: Did Laura run by?

yesh yesh yesh yesh

so mlk's thought about mike and that movie is so legit. i am slowly embracing this crazy situation i have been going through and just saying, 'well, i have grown a lot from this.' now i know whats important. i learned that i should stop trusting people who are idiots. i learned not to devote myself so much to something because there is always a potential of getting hurt. i learned who my real sisters were. i learned to knit, haha. i learned how much more mature i am in situations than the people who think they are being mature and making the right choices. i learned how unfair life can be sometimes, and i learned how unbelievably unprofessional certain national organizations are. i learned how much i actually loved music, and i also learned how to live in a living room. haha. i learned what dino love is, that is the real 'DL.' :-)

YESH!

Okay, now that's love. With lots of hearts. Right there. An L. Bin and an L. Flynn reply SO QUICKLY! AWWW! Pledgey got in on the action too. She just didn't know it. Is it possible to blog-haze her? I think we might have just blog-hazed her.

JFK, Sco, Drog and I crashed Spreadies and Casey's party tonight. We were being loud with gin on a Thursday. Tell me what is wrong with this picture, someone.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button made me think of Mike. I think I decided I need to stop trying to change whatever the heck we were, stop trying to dislike him over it and start to embrace him as shaping who I am. He did. I wish he wouldn't be so... distant, but there is little that can be done about this.

Green Day is not a good band. East Jesus Nowhere is a great song, though. Actually, now that I think of it (stop me if it's too heinous), I think I might actually LIKE Green Day. (YIKES!)

Is it weird that I find comfort in my foot smell? I don't like it. It's just comforting. Like, "Oh yea. Things are still normal. My feet still smell like dog shit."

Oh yea, the real world does not exist!

"drog is tweeting about you"

YES!

Mallory!!! 

I think you are right. We should use the dino family model in choosing a relationship person. Pledge and I were talking about relationships yesterday and we decided (you know how like sometimes your like I dont want a relationship right now because I need to focus on myself) well like thats not a good relationship then. We think that like you should be able to grow as a person while in a relationship and be able to talk to them about legit stuff and they can help you grow by making you think and shit. So basically if you cant focus on yourself while in a relationship then it is a shitty wrong one anyway. So I think Mal is super right. They should be able to fit in the dino's because that is the ultimate form of friendship and love and we are all super baller. 

Hokay, so...

I think the real reason I haven't posted lately is because I, unlike yourselves, did not have very much procrastinating to participate in at the end of the school year.

There was this love discussion earlier that I totally missed out on. However, I (as always) have my own two cents to add. Even though Sco spurred the discussion based on the intangible qualities of love, I think that the love we dinos have is the most tangible sort of love on the market. I always wonder why romantic love relationships can't be more like friendships. We put up with a lot more shit, expect a whole lot less and are more willing to compromise when it comes to our friends. I guess it's "just not that deep". Perhaps, however, this love model is better than whatever it is we think of when we think of romantic love. All the best relationships (and I mean moms & dads and such) seem to extract this friend-love in order to sustain success, don't you think? Perhaps this romantic love thing is all just infatuation, chemical transaction and a general figment of the imagination. Maybe dino love is the only real sort of love. If this is the case, I hope that we can all someday find another dino to add to the family. If he's not dino material, ladies, something's missing!

I miss Laura. I keep thinking it is her coming down the stairs, but it's not! It's slowly settling in that she is gone. But, L. Flynn, you would be proud of how clean our house is! Haha.

Jenna and I had 1/2 of the Pinstripes over last night. They were legit. I drove one to the bus stop at 4AM when it was pouring down rain. I think it maybe messed up my car. So much street flooding.

One word: BALLER.

I think I am the best Billie Joe this Pink House has ever seen.

I promise not to be so lame in the future. AKA I will blog more often.

pt 2

also, BJ would be a dino pledge, but he would never get into the dino fam.

dui

so me and mlk decided that if tre cool was around, he would be in the dino fam. and billie joe would be a dino pledge.

Bin Thoughts

Candles are nice.

I really want to hug you all right now. Like a big group hug. 

I like vests. I dont know if they are cool or not... but I like them. 

I think my eyelashes grew. I dont know if that is possible but I really think they got longer. 

OMG

I want to see people I see in airports too!!!

One time I legit saw Pledge in an airport in like NY or something. BALLER!! But I didnt really know her back then... must have been a sign of things to come. ahhhh. I love Pledge. 

i hate airports that don't have free wireless. get with the program!

my itouch is awesome. i downloaded a podcast this morning that was video and i watched it on my flight to baltimore. woord.

i wonder if grades have been sent home yet.

on my first flight (i'm flying southwest so there is no assigned seating) i was the last person to get on the plane cause i was e-mailing. and there were three seats on both sides of the isle, so everyone just leaves the middle seat open because in our culture we have a phobia of other people for some reason. anyway, i was like poo i'm going to have to sit in the back! lame. i shouldn't have e-mailed so much!! but there was a seat in the forth row (a window seat even!! my favorite) next to this older dude and i don't know why no one sat next to him cause he was cool. he was doing a crossword and that prompted me to do one too! yesh. and he even let me go out of the plane before him. all those people that walked by him really didn't know what was up.

i hate it when people have my alarm as their ringtone cause it just makes me hella jump every time.

baltimore is sunny right now. the sweet thing about airporsts is they have a lot of windows. i would like a room that is windows on three sides. although, my room with windows on two sides was cool. i don't understand people who keep the blinds closed all the time. i really really like natural light.

why are those half-sneakers still on the market? clog seakers. what the truck.

i just called my house to make sure someone would pick me up when i land and both my parents answered the phone. i love/hate when they do that cause it is hilarious but also corny/weird.

i have had onion breath for like...many moons.

i had a bunch of celery at buffalo wild wings the other day...i think i might be over my problem with that.

i can see someone with ryan's sneakers! aieeee! (why are those still allowed to be sold?)

what did people do in airports before cell phones?

i always want to see people i know in airports, but it hardly ever happens. only once. ooh...actually twice. once time was pamela in detroit and the other time was this kid from my high school on a flight to indianapolis (he goes to iu).

it's always so sweet to see people with red sox hats on. feels like home.

thin mints are my favorite girl scout cookie.

i don't think airplane neck pillows look very comfortable.

Anyone who says baller that many times deserves a baller trophy in honor of their baller-ness.

Scolesies

Of course you were mistaken/ sarcastic or whatever you said. Duh i'm not really turning into pickle... because as you said I have a baller amount of street cred. Im so baller I can say baller more than three times in one post and it still sounds baller. I can even, baller, insert baller into a sentence that doesn't even belong with a baller.... and its baller. Also, when people (like scolsies) say redic things about me. I have to defend my rep. Its what happens when you are this baller. 

p.s. Pledge is funny ALL the time. You are right about that. 

Also, Jenna is super legit. I wish I could be that cool too. I wish that a lot. I also wish I could be as cool as you (Scolesies). And the bullet point was sweet!! Made me laugh a lot.... and that is one of my favorite things. Baller. 

To Clarify

Goddammit L-Bin, i was exaggerating and being sarcastic. No, I do not think you're actually turning into pickle. That would be impossible bc she is zero percent baller and has absolutely no street cred and loves disney princesses and pink. You, obviously, are none of those things. And for anyone else who thought that post was mean i'm sorry, lighten up, and know that i do not think LB is at all, and i mean AT ALL, like pickle.

Yo Pledge and Scolesies...

I AM NOT FUCKING PICLKE!!!! GOD... and by "fucking pickle" I do not mean "sex with Pickle". I mean just because we both have one thing in common does not mean we are the same person!!! PLEDGE AND SCOLSIES!!!! ERRRRRRRRRRRR. Besides I am the orig. abrever. fuckers. So shut up!!!!!!!!!! And I already say def.... and I would never say awk because I hate that word. Im like actually really pissed right now. 

WHY would I turn into my little... I am older and cooler.... that is just silly. And I am PISSED for you even saying it will happen... ERRR

A Couple of Repsonses

-L-bin: No...just...no. You cannot love abbreviations because then you're pickle and pickle is a dipshit. Next thing we know you come back from the NZ saying shit like awk. and def. and ungod knows what else and you turn into your crazy ass little. So no. You have to renig that statement about abbreviations. Pronto.
-Jenna: I can appreciate your love of music as my love for music, from the minute details of composition to the way the bass beats in my sternum, to the way the words seem to say things that can change you...music is the shit
-Also to Jenna: i think it's good to have a mix of serious and retarded. you can't be either all the time because if you had one but not the other you could never appreciate either one of them
-Katie: You are hilarious all the time. Why are you not here. I miss you
-To all: I love and would do anything for all of you, no questions asked. I'd defend you until I was blue in the face, which hasn't ever happened to me before, but I'm assuming it takes a really, really long time to turn blue.
-Also, I have multiple bullets points for multiple comments which is so not as cool as having an arbitrary one bullet point for one comment, but oh well, I never tried to be as cool as Jenner because that's just unreasonable and altogether unattainable for me :)

pledge is effing hilarious

daronsgirl81505: ill tell you if you friggin answer meeeee
longview203: oh hi
longview203: sorry i was in the shower
longview203: i know, not something you're familiar with
longview203: let me explain, there is a giant tub and next to it is is a spout with rushing hot water out onto whoever is standing under it
longview203: most people use this bar thing called SOAP, somep people use shower gel though, i know, it can get pretty complicated
longview203: let me know if you need me to slow down

I love...

Laughing... Its prob my favorite thing in the world to do.... for sure it is my favorite thing to do ever. 

side note: Even though I told my flat mates that they would like pledge because she is tiny (and yes that is the reason I told them they would like her)... they wouldnt like her if they ever found out she likes green day. 

I also love side notes! Its like you are talking about something and then you stop for a sec and talk about something else... then you go back to the orig. convo. 

I also like abrevs.

i love..

music
...esp green day right now.
i hate you pledge for making me like gd
you know i love you for it tho...haha

I know one thing I for sure love

Talking to Jenna and Scolesies when they are super drunk and telling me about the hot guy I should look up... the one on the Australian quadriplegic rugby team.... 

yeah thats love

god knows what

im glad my comp remembered my passwd cuz i wouldnt have.

-i know nothing of love...at least not btwn me and some guy. however, i know what general love is. and i love everyone on this blog to death legit. like, i would take a bullet for any of my dinos. i love you guys so much. my mom is like, so happy i have such good friends, and i love love love how my friends will defend me, even to my mom. love it. i actually was like blah to whatever love posts were written cuz i was like 'ok this shit is too serious.' haha...ok. basically, i love my sisters...my dinos. period. i pretty much love music more than anything right now. i want to lock myself in a room and listen to it all the time. no shit. im so weird about music that i feel like i would lose friends if i told ppl the extent of how much i loved it. ok im done. night.

i love how that was a bullet point...but it was only one bullet point. yesh.

ryan just farted on me in his sleep. what the truck.

Something funny

Woahshhh. Feelin' the love. Hahaha. Okay, it wasn't that funny. Anyway, I agree with all of you basically, except Scolesies. Actually, I don't remember what you said anymore but I remember I didn't agree with all of it. Like, just because you fall out of love with someone doesn't mean you never loved them. I think you can love someone at one point in your life and then move on later and not love them. Idk, you'd probably know better than me. Also, I think you just know when you love someone. Most of the time anyway. I mean I guess I've never been "in love" but even from a friend/family standpoint. Like, I know that I love my dad. I don't think there is anything he could do short of killing someone that could change that. And we fight A LOT. I mean he didn't abuse me or anything hahah but, we have definitely gotten in some bad fights. I just feel like there is hardly anything he could ever do that I couldn't not forgive him for you know? Also, I love you! Yes, you! Reading this right now!! Haha, unless of course someone let Peggy on this blog (that was a joke Laura, and anyone else who pretends to like that girl). Anyway, really, P-gig and I get along better now. Weird. I don't hate her or dislike her. Just the things she says. So, back to the love. I feel like I love all of you for different reasons in different ways. Idk. Okay, I can't talk about this anymore. I don't know what else to say and now I feel weird. Someone say something funny. Lauren....

l bin, everyone loves when you post, no one is annoyed. the point of this blog was to stay in touch and write out whatever thought you were thinking. and so...if you don't write out whatever thoughts you are thinking, you are not using the blog appropriately.

i like being serious and funny at the same time too. i was the first person my best friend from home really confided in. and she says that's because we could have a serious conversation but be laughing the whole time. and that is pretty sweet. and that is mostly how it is with you kids. when we went through shit this semester, we laughed too. t's like...you can make serious funny, but still not take away from ther serious. i have to have a serious conversation with my parents when i get home and i wish it could be funny too, but i know it won't.

i thought i was in love once, but now that i fell in love again, i don't think it was love the first time. i really feel that it was pseudolove. it was just the strongest i ever felt about someone at that point. but i think different people have different levels of love. like, what i feel is love it not necessarily what someone else feels is love. one time when i was little i asked my mom how i knew what a cramp felt like and how everyone knew that everyone felt the same pain when they said they had a cramp. and i think it's like that.

maybe there should be symptoms for love? like...that's how you tell someone is depressed, no? you have x of the amount of symptoms. i suppose no one feels the need to make love that objective, and i don't think it should be, but i'm just saying.

if someone falls out of love with you, but you still love them, how do you fall out of love? like, is it just because they hurt you, and so then you're just done?

i don't really like that bible quote from first corinthians because it is so overused, but i do appreciate it. i believe that love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preserves. i don't know if love never fails. maybe not - marriages and relationships just end when people fall out of love? is falling out of love the same as love failing? iiiii don't know.

there is this john denver song (haha...i know john denver is just funny). anyway, the first time i heard it this dude was playing it acoustic on a guitar and it was sweet, one of those perfect moments you look back on. but the really version is like...opera style. anyway, i really like some of the lyrics for some reason.

"perhaps love is like the ocean
full of conflict, full of pain
like a fire when it's cold outside
or thunder when it rains"

i don't know. that makes it sound so...harsh. but i think love isn't this fluffy thing, i think it requires work and patience and...other things. selflessness and stuff.

i think i have more to say, but i can't find it in my brain.

thought

Sometimes I think .... oh does it get annoying that I post shit all the time. That would suck for you people. Sorry. But at the same time its like I like doing it so I dont care if it is boring for you. Also, im like I hope you people dont judge me ... then I remember its you people. 

Hello

We should have a code name for that substance Jenna and scolesies got in trouble for. I dont know why I think that. 

Scolesies

Basically I agree completely 

If love is not measurable do we even know if it exists. Is it something we make up in our minds because it sounds like it would be great and we want to experience but we cant. 

I dont know. Its weird how we know people who love someone so much that they stay together for so long and are still happy together. Yet we know people who love each other but one cheats on the other one. Do most people just settle for what they think is love and that is why they are willing to cheat and that is why they realize they dont love the other person even after being together for so long?

Yet at the same time I know I love my family and my friends because when I think about loosing them I get so upset. I would do almost anything for the people I love in a friendship/family way. Even when my family makes me mad I know I love them. And this is a more concrete love for me. Like I cant describe how it feels but I know it exists. 

Love in a romantic form is completely different though! It has to be. I dont know what it is like because I have never experienced it... but I have felt glimpses of it and I can tell it is baller. 

You would think though that love between two people would be equal. Like if one person loves another that person loves them back. It doesnt always work that way though. I know lots of times when one person "loves" another person but the person they love does not love them back. Why would that ever happen???? It does not make sense!! It does not make sense in a psychological or societal sense either. Like why would that happen. There is no benefit of it at all. 

Also, why do people love each other but their relationship doesnt work out? That doesnt make sense either. There is no benefit in that either. I know a few people who love someone for a while and then they decide its not going to work or its not working anymore and they break up. So why would this happen? is it a continuum and they realized that there are people they love more? Thats shitty. I dont want to love someone and have them realize i'm not good enough. That would suck! I dont want to be a 10 in someones love scale when I could be a 100. But why would the love scale not be equal? 

And how come some people find someone they lobe when they are 60! Other find someone they love when they are 16. That doesnt make sense either. I dont want to wait much longer. Its a long wait. 

I have a fucking cat scratch on my arm mother fucker. That is a side note. 

But yeah. I dont know. What does everyone else think? Love as a whole does not make sense. It is different for everyone. I want to know what it is like though. I mean it is wonderful having wonderful friends and I love you all, but I want so bad for someone to really love me and for me to love them. 

Oh man this shit is like serious and I dont like being all serious a lot. Most of the time I like joking around but really I like being serious. Its kind of nice sometimes. Its like I realllllly like having deep conversations. I think people are legit when they can talk for real with me and like really think about things. And being sensitive is baller. I hate black and white. I like people who can be for real sensitive and at the same time joke the fuck out of things. I like to never take anything seriously but at the same time take everything seriously. That does not make sense but to me it makes a lot of sense. 

I can't sleep and was being all contemplative

I hate that there are things in life which cannot be quantified, measured, or even described: abstract phenomena occurring every day to every one but which possess no central qualification, no exact definition. Water can be quantified. Air can be measured. A chair can be described. Love, however, provides humanity no such luxury. How do we know if we love someone? If we think we love someone and we believe we love someone, does it make it so? When you say “I love you” how do you know if you are telling the truth? It is easy to know if you’re lying and you say it, but what if you believe you love someone but have no proof? I used to say, “I love you” to a boy I thought I loved, and, for all I know, may have actually loved. Either way, I awoke one winter morning, sat straight up in my bed, and knew, with great certainty that I did not love him any longer, that is if I ever really did. The suddenness of the change threw me, how can something so seemingly powerful—albeit intangible—be so inconsistent? If I could fall out of love so quickly, was I ever in love in the first place? Did I persuade myself into thinking I was in love and when my self-made delusion ended so did my pseudo-love for him? Or maybe I really loved him. Maybe my whole heart and self did love him—how is one supposed to know, especially when it ends. If it ends at all does it mean that it wasn’t really the love which you once thought? If you don’t really know what love is, and you don’t know if it was, how can you know when it is again? If you can’t define something, how can it be real? I would like to think I am in love, but there is a part of me that is unsure. There is a part of me holding back; reserving some of what I feel is my love for fear that if I give it away and the “love” ends, I won’t be able to get it back, and thusly shouldn’t have given it in the first place because if it ended, it wasn’t love…or was it? And did it end because I couldn’t spare the last corner of my heart for fear it wasn’t the love I thought it might be? Things which cannot be quantified, calculated, measured, described, or defined should not be allowed to exist; they quite simply make my quite simple life rather complicated.

Funnel Vision

So i just used the beer bong funnel to help blow up my air mattress. Then i played with it in spreads' room. I put it on my head and did a little dance step like the tin man in the wizard of oz. I made awesome noises that sounded kinda nasty through it. Then i looked through it, i looked at people's heads through the little round end and it was cool, 'cause all i could see were their heads! Crazy! Then i looked at spreads' pictures on her wall and i was like, woah, this is amazing bc when i try and look at the wall just normally i get distracted and can't look at any one picture---BUT WHEN I LOOK THROUGH THIS IT"S AMAZING; LIKE I HAVE TUNNEL VISION OR SOMETHING!

After which spreads said, "no, you have funnel vision"

After which much laughter and merriment ensued.

PS I am straight sober and have been all day. Hard to believe, I know, especially with how stupid this post is, but I swear to ungod that I am completely one hundred percent for real legit not drunk! Haha

Peg...the fish

How can fish be assholes? Fish don't do anything.
If a fish were an asshole to me, I'd drown it...with air...
