"Down in the Valley Lives the Former Talk-Show Host..."
About to leave for class, but I survived my first weekend at college! By which I mean I think I had fun and did some stuff, but I still got all my homework done, which is gratifying. There were some points when that seemed a little overwhelming. But, as I say, completion.
College is definitely messing with my ability to articulate online. I am not sure how to explain this, except I know that I am using words differently and setting up sentences differently, not in ways that are wrong, actually in ways that I think are more formal, but it really annoys me that it's getting harder to speak colloquially. Speaking colloquially is a part of me. I usually turn it off, yes, but then I can usually turn it back on when I want to. This appears to be happening online and IRL, actually. I just know it's going to drive me crazy every time I make an LJ post, which is why I haven't been making many.
On a semi-related note, I still don't like Stephen King's fiction. But having read his memoir, I think it would be really cool to meet him.
