Somewhere Only We Know


I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting older and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're going to let me
I'm getting tired and I need someone to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?
I'm getting older and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're going to let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know

November =]

Thanksgiving, No-Shave-November, there are alot of things going on this month.
Including...

NaNoWriMo =]

So apparently November is National Write A Novel Month, who knew?
I found out just last week and decided to do it. The initial goal is to write 50,000 words, or 175 pages, before November 30th. Quantity, rather than quality, is the highest importance. The focus is just getting it done as a rough draft, and then December is the month of revising and editing.

http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/763881 <---My story is here, if you want to check it out.

I'm writing under a pen name, and have no intention of trying for publication, this is just for fun. I started a bit late though, so I'm four or five days behind. I'm hoping to catch up soon.
I figure this is better than No-Shave-November :p

I Have A Cold :|

I love this movie =]
...and the book and the author and...

I really want this cold to go away! I hope it does soon, it's not that I don't enjoy its company or anything, but I would like to resume my social life sometime soon.
On the plus side, I'm starting to get abs from coughing so much :D

Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.
Love,

Orange Juice and Bananna Nut Muffins

It's just one of those mornings when you turn on the news and they tell you everything but the weather.

Tomorrow is Thursday =]

Who wants to know the several factors that determine the biological effects of a particular source of radiation? :D

In other words, I don't want to do my chemisty so instead I'm procrasting
...with more chemisty... (This does not bode well for my future)

(The abridged version)

1. The energy of the radiation: radiation doses are measured in rads (short for radiation absorbed dose), the higher the energy content that more damage can be caused.

2. The penetrating ability of the radiation: The particles and rays produced in radioactive processes vary in their abilities to penetrate human tissue.

3. The ionizing ability of the radiation: Extraction of electrons from biomolecules to form ions is particularly detrimental to their functions. The ionizing ability of radiation varies dramatically.

4. The chemical properties of the radiation source: When a radioactive nucleotide is ingested into the body, its effectiveness in causing damage depends on its residence time.
