My New Favorite Blog

It comes from the Dallas Observer's own, but I don't think I'm biased. I think I'm just a grammar nut with a good sense of humor.

So let's welcome Everybody Needs a Copy Editor to the roll.
Best part? Submissions are encouraged. And c'mon, you know you've seen a sign or something with an awesome typo in the last--what? five minutes? Send 'em in, peeps.

Because I Just Gotta

Trebek's drunk, and it's NSFW.


This one's safer:

infinite summer - who's in?

yes, i'll admit it. as an avid bibliophile (which my future movers will attest to, those poor box-carrying souls), i have picked up and put down infinite jest more times than i care to admit. i'm one of those people. i've ended up giving away 3 (i think) copies of the book to people who seemed more determined than myself (i'm pretty sure oliver was the only one who finished), but recently i bought yet another copy in anticipation of infinite summer, the online "really, this time we're going to finish the damn thing" reading group. reading is scheduled (loosely i assume) from june 21 through september 22, averaging an easy peasy 75ish pages a week.

so who's going to join me? and don't give me any of your dumb excuses - i have to move, construct, paint, take a mediation class and graduate during this time and i'm doing it.

nerver is still on the fence, but has her copy ready, just in case....

they is risen

kinda like jesus but not. it's been months since either of us have posted anything, but i swear, we totally have valid excuses..... does anyone still read this anymore?

you'll have to excuse us for our lack of updates - things have been pretty hectic in the trebek-hating camp, so we're sorry we've been neglectful.

here's some news items to catch you up:
* nerver relocated to a land far, far away (read: about a 10 minute drive), leaving me to curse most of my neighbors at glendale "melrose place" oaks
* she also had some travel adventures, of which i think she'll have to explain
* i'm one course away from finally getting my degree. my perfect gpa was marred by my inability to give a fuck about art appreciation/ a bastard ex messing with my head, but a 3.8 is good enough...
* said ex has been banished to the 9th circle of hell and i'm currently accepting applications for a replacement
* i'm buying a house - hopefully. (fingers crossed). inspection is tomorrow, so we are potentially on the verge of full-on adulthood
* cami has officially taken the position of best top golfer-female. you'll now be able to find us at top golf practicing at every available moment
* i have a sweet tea addiction that won't quit

and now we need to know what's up with everyone else....
