Punk rock, Ivy League, MS, uninspired text formatting

"Blogs" tend to suck. Usually, it's someone you don't know blathering about some drivel you could care less about. "D00d, the Canucks are gonna win the Stanley Cup this year!"

Please let me know if I fall prey to that...

My favorite diaries:

sksmith profile - diary
comments: How I discovered Diaryland. She still rocks. Who knew?
rachelliz profile - diary
comments: My editor. She even went to Brown and was my original year of 1996!
ursulabear profile - diary
comments: She's going back to sk00l as an older person; I endorse this. College is wasted on the young.

comments: Who needs a shrink when you have a pen?
stellarose profile - diary

update April 6, 2020: Sorry, we just had 8+ hours downtime due to a server problem. Restoring from backups took soooo long, but everything is back and no data was lost. Ay yay yay! Anyhow, hope everyone is well with the virus stuff.
