I have no problem admitting this: I cried when I heard Prop 8 had passed. Because, if someone like me - atheist, borderline pagan - can get married, why not them? I have a lot of gay/bi/lesbian friends, and just the thought that the world can tell them who they can and cannot be with makes me angry. I will never understand how so much ignorance and bigotry can still survive in the world.

1. Put your music player on random. 2. Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing the song. 3. Let everyone guess what song and artist (or musical) the lines come from. 4. Embolden the songs when someone guesses correctly.
( Do you really wanna know? )
No one did this last time. I wonder if it's because no one gives a shit or if the songs were too obscure... Someone at least give this one a try?

I looked at fish tanks today, and I'm going to be getting a 10 gallon and setting it up next week. I'll be getting at least two black moors. I even have names picked out for them; Zetsubo and Billy. Yes, I know I'm a dork.

But not really. Last night was miserable. My toothache progressed into a migrane, which kept me awake until well after 2am. My alarm clock wakes me up at 4:20am. I decided to call off work, as I knew I'd be of no use to anyone with a migrane/toothache and no sleep.
Slept until noon-thirty or so, decided to do something around the house to assuage my guilt over not going to work today. Started some much needed cleaning of my room. Threw out a bunch of stuff I never wear (and, subsequently, that the cats have pissed all over). There is now more than just a trail from my bed to the door - and even that usually had a boot or two blocking the way.
Allergies have kicked in, so I'm taking a bit of a break as the latest load of laundry finishes in the washing-machine, then it's off to the kitchen to do some cleaning up before I start the cupcakes for the pot-luck tomorrow. It's a UofM vs. MSU theme. Mom is doing green-and-white frosting, and I'm doing blue-and-gold. That's the plan, anyway. I'll probably end up doing all of it.
Need more hot cocoa - well... lukewarm, anyway. Fucking hell, I feel like shit...
*shuffles off in pajamas and slippers to finish laundry*

You Are a Cat

You are very independent and reclusive. No one really understands you, and you like it that way!
You are quite clever and ingenious. You can get yourself out of any sticky situation.
You are confident and cool tempered. You know you have many advantages and resources to draw from.
No matter what life throws at you, things always seem to work out your way.

My sister is going to the hospital tomorrow. They're going to induce labor, so, whether this baby wants to or not, she's getting born. September 13th, 2008 will be Reagan Rose Miller's birthday.
As this seems like a large bit of news on the personal front, I thought my flist would like to know.

Slept shittily last night. This does not bode well for my first day back at work. Also, went to the store yesterday and forgot to pick up something for my lunch, and I also only have one single dollar bill.
*zombie*
Hope everyone else had a better start to their work-week.

LJ is screwing up my layout again, so I've gone back to the bare-bones Generator theme. Does anyone know where I can find a decent layout? I just want the coding, I'll make the layout graphics myself.

Fandom-tagged because it's actually almost relevant to FMA.
Your result for What Mage Are You?... Biochemist"The world is clay and we are artists." 
Biochemists are people of their word, intent on preserving social and family values. At home and at work, they reliably examine the people and products that fall under their responsibility—unobtrusively ensuring uniform quality and demanding that certain standards of conduct are maintained. In both their professional and personal lives, individuals of this type are rather quiet and serious. Biochemists are extraordinarily persevering and dependable. The thought of dishonoring a contract would appall a person of this type. When they give their word, they give their honor. They perform their duties without flourish or fanfare; therefore, the dedication they bring to their work can go unnoticed and unappreciated. While not directly seeking leadership positions, Biochemists are often placed in such roles. They build a reputation for reliable, stable, and consistent performance that causes others to select them to lead. They use their past experience and their factual knowledge in their decision making. With knowledge comes understanding, and with understanding comes mastery. The Biochemist's knowledge of science has reached the saturation point, leading to a mastery over the laws of nature. The potions they brew can bring someone from the edge of death and eat away at the armor of the body and soul. Their alchemical knowledge allows for the creation of homonculi. Now their only goal is the magnum opus: the Philosopher's Stone. Take What Mage Are You? at HelloQuizzy
