this might be my new mantra

true.

why wasn't i made aware of this before i spent several hours processing the things i learned during armageddon week on history channel?

one more cool thing

i love these flowcharts this site puts together - they're really funny if you go through them. here's a fave:

"lost" map on google maps

spoiler alert. i'm slowly working my way through the entire series (all before the season premiere next month). given that i'm only in season 2, this map is full of spoils i'm sure, but it's cool nonetheless. what people won't do with spare time and ample amounts of fandom.

sleep-less/full-ness

what an odd night. i didn't sleep at all until about 5 am, which is strange because i usually sleep just fine and at length quite easily (like 10 hours+). i just laid in bed pretty much all night and at some point around 3 gave up on the total silence and boredom and watched some tv on my ipod. then, after about 5, i slept pretty well until 10:30. not sure what's up - i didn't feel well when i went to bed, so maybe it was just that. but, i thought i'd post these two pictures about sleep, in honor of my confusion.

i'm a sucker for a LOLcat

i'm not that old, but...

seeing little kids talk about how life is for them makes me feel old. watching life evolve and things change is a very trippy experience, and i don't think i really understood that until a couple of years ago. i've almost been an adult for an entire decade - that's 10 years during which i've been able to make my own choices for the most part, self-direct, and be aware of my surroundings. it's very different from being 14. so, i see the world differently now with more perspective on how certain things fit into the context of the passing of time, and i notice that pretty often.

so, here's a link to some kids talking about what they think about growing up in the 2000's and demonstrating that the way kids prioritize and contextualize their memories - pretty interesting and entertaining.
