I LOVE BONES
the show. not the tissue. anyway, i love that robert englund was in the latest episode and they referred to him as “freddy creepy.” you know… because he played freddy krueger in “nightmare on elm street.” you know. robert englund. freddy kreu… never mind.

It’s because its not a peroxide based dye. it is meant to be absorbed into light hair, like bleached hair. it’s still pretty though! caseyrae: Wouldn’t it have been cooler in “Cupcake Pink?” Do they still make that? This is not as bright as I wished for.

casting spells
i threw a wadded up piece of paper at a student today (not in anger, just because we were messing around) and he actually pointed his pencil like a a wand and yelled “protego!”…  it was an immediate reaction, like it came totally natural. this student is now my most favourite student OF ALL TIME.

pee pee!
um, we showed maeve some episodes of “Pee Wee’s Playhouse” and now she is running around the house yelling “pee pee!” (which means “Pee Wee”)! and singing “la la la, connect the dots!” i’m very VERY proud.

children and bunsen burners...
apparently the instruction: “hold test tube in bunsen burner just until the chemical barely melts and then remove immediately”, actually means: “hold the test tube in the bunsen burner until the chemical melts completely, boils, turns black, burns, smokes and blows the bottom of the test tube out.” and the instruction: “Hold the penny in the bunsen burner just until...

rap for casey
caseyrae: You know how rap songs always talk in creepy details about girls’ outfits? Will someone rap about my pirate boots & Hello Kitty earmuffs? here you go: she’s got hot a hot booty in her pirate booties as she’s getting jiggy with her hello kitty (earmuffs) um. that’s why i’m NOT a rapper, but a chemistry teacher.

that headline actually makes no sense. “Twilight’ fans can get happily get lost in corn” must have been written by someone who reads novels written at a 4th grade level. rmiriam12: “‘Twilight’ fans can get happily get lost in corn” I know this is from last week, but ugh. Just dreadful. via Deseret News

Photographing Diversity
what you don’t know and might be surprised to know about me, crystal, is that i USED to be an african american lesbian. that was before the surgery. don’t tell ryan. he doesn’t know. solysombra: The assignment this week in my photography class is meant to force us out of our comfort zone, get us to step into another person’s shoes etc… We did a writing assignment today where...

Like 4 stars and shit. i cannot believe i’m defending the DMB. OMG. ...

I discovered this fact while watching Saturday Night Live with Erin and Carolyn. It had been a REALLY long day/week/quarter/year, and we were tearing through the wine with a bit of abandon. All of a sudden, a...
