I am
feeling g-d RANTY today, scratch that, actually been feeling it the last WEEK or maybe MONTH I don't know I am disgruntled about some things.



(Disgruntle face.)
You always know when I'm unhappy cause I get all quiet and my jaw starts to workin and then five minutes later I'm like BAM HERE ARE FIVE WELL-THOUGHT-OUT REASONS WHY I AM RIGHT.

Anyway, whatevs, went to Junot Diaz tonight at UCLA (OMG NERDGASM) and now I'm disgruntled about how my FORMER PEERS ignore me and I go to say hi and I am like this lonely puppy with a paw outstretched, flapping in the wind and nobody wants to pet my head. I would have gone up to Dennis and been like "WHOOOOOO HUGS!" but by that point I was totally crushed and felt awkward enough to die.

"Friends of English" more like "Not Friends of English."

Then this 13-year-old asked an awesome question and I wanted to devour him whole. Then some other people asked dumbass questions about "do you consider yourself a Dominican writer? Caribbean writer? writer of African descent?" and "were you afraid the Spanglish of your novel would turn off a certain part of your audience?" but Diaz rocked the shit out of the answers and it made you feel good because he Just. Owns. It. and you know he's that guy that would totally be down for doing a j and watching, like, the extended version of Fellowship.

Oh hai remember guys I have a Tumblr account, all the cool kids are doing it, trust me, heard it here first.

yumwatch.tumblr.com

I MEAN come on look at that Penguin theme I've got going on, you know you're jeals.

Now K. has an iPhone so our lives are totally ruled by technology and for our next purchase instead of a leather or fabric couch I think we will get one entirely made up of laserbeams.

Hi carrie, it's vivian! Can you explain tumblr to me? I tried it out (http://thundermustard.tumblr.com/), but I'm not sure I understand what's going on. Is it like a blog lite? -v

yeah, it's like blogging lite, exactly. what you gotta do is just look around for interesting looking Tumblrs, add them...and then the magic begins! It's cool cause it can be as anonymous or as personal as you like.
