FACT: I'm more royal than you.

According to this Wikipedia entry: "A clubbed thumb is a term used to describe the genetic clubbing of one or both thumbs. It is characterized by a particularly short thumb that is round in section and bulbous at the end. The thumb nail is very wide and short. The scientific term for clubbed thumb is Brachydactyly type D or "BDD". Clubbed thumbs are historically thought of as a sign of royalty. This rare condition was much more common in royal European blood-lines than in the general population and was used as a factor in determining the pureness of the blood."

In all their greatness:



This blog entry goes out to my lady, Rayne, who shares in my newfound royalty! Though I'm still more royal than her because both of my thumbs are clubbed, and she's only got one.

Cinderella Slippers?

I received the following email this morning from my guy friend:

monday night i was on 129th street in harlem looking for a taxi with my friend when we saw a pair of
orange stripper/hooker shoes in a dumpster.
i, of course, grabbed them and put them on(with socks, so as to avoid shoe-borne diseases).
i wore them in the taxi down to the bowery where i got tired of wearing them(they are kind
of painful, to be honest).
as the night progressed i, sadly, forgot about them.
then last night(4 days later) a random stranger/dj came up to me and said 'are these your shoes?' and handed
me aforementioned orange stripper/hooker shoes.
i said 'yes', and immediately put them on, having been reunited with said shoes.
so i ask you, what are the chances that:
a-i'd find a perfect pair of orange stripper hooker shoes at 2 a.m in a dumpster in harlem on a monday night?
and
b-that some random stranger would re-give them to me at 2 a.m on the bowery on a friday night?
i now believe that these shoes are my soulmate.

xxxxxxxxx

p.s-here are my soulmate shoes.



I would like to know if they actually FIT?! Funny how the only reason these are deemed hooker shoes is because of the silver spiked heel. if it were a regular heel, they'd just be lady's heels.

Blah/Yay!

I have been completely uninspired to post lately. Busy-ness does it, I think. Here's what I've been up to:

----------------------------------

I began that post last night when I was at a pretty low point. I think I just needed a good talk and some sleep. All better now!

I started school about two weeks ago. The classes this quarter are good. Abnormal psych, Sensation & Perception, and I'm doing another research assistantship for credit. Some days are much more interesting than others. Yesterday, for instance, I was pretty bored during Sensation & Perception, started organizing my compy's desktop and rediscovered some photos I'd neglected to post. Shortly after I returned from New York, Jeremy and I rented bikes at the beach and found swings.

We also had two amazing nights at The Greek. Thursday October 2, Cameron, Chelsea, Jeremy and I rode my scooter and Cam's motorcycle to see Sigur Ros. Cameron and I have waited months to see them - especially after our failed adventure to see them in Mexico due to the civil unrest that was happening there.

The following night, October 3, Jeremy, Stevel, and I saw David Byrne! It was an amazing performance. Dancers, music, dancing, BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE!! Here is a really great review from of the show.
