I’ve been meaning to go to bed for the past 15 minutes.
tumblr isn’t even that interesting right now, why am I still awake.
I have a problem. I have a serious problem.
TIME FOR BED.
Let it burst(and bloom)
Caitlin. 21. Illinois.
Music is my love. Writing is my passion. Books are my life.
I have the most wonderful fiance in the world.
I'm trying really hard to make this sound interesting
If you’re interested, this 1982 documentary has some great footage of Alex using English words to identify objects. Really cool stuff. Every time he gets one right, before she can even hand him his treat, he says “I want a nut” XDOh my god I’m crying.
Irene spent 30 years socializing Alex and he eventually became as smart as a 5 year old human. He could speak English and was able to convey ideas and coin new words. Like, he knew the words “yummy” and “bread” and when she made him a birthday cake he called it “yummy-bread” because he didn’t know the word for cake.
It took years and years of training him out of her own pocket before anyone would even give he grant money to study him “officially” and now she’s one of the most well-respected animal behavior scientists.
She had a routine with Alex where every night she’d say “Goodnight Alex, I love you!” and he’d say “I love you!” and then she’d turn off the light and go to bed. Recently, after going through their routine, she came by the next morning and he had passed away.
30 years.
;____;
When I read her book, I couldn’t make it through the first sentence on the dust jacket without crying.
That’s crazy!

Pride & Prejudice Mini Series Drinking Game
Take a drink when..
1. Somebody says “Mr. Darcy” (just “Darcy” doesn’t count)
2. Mrs. Bennett flutters her hankerchief.
3. Mr. Collins makes a backwards compliment.
4. Lizzy rolls her eyes.
5. Lydia giggles.
6. Jane or Bingley defend someone/thing.
7. Mr. Bennett insults Mrs. Bennett.
8. Miss Bingley and Mrs. Hurst laugh at another’s expense.
9. Darcy stares into the distance to avoid eye contact/confrontation.
WATERFALL during any Lizzy vs. Mr. Darcy moment.
KILL THE CUP when someone actually kisses.
These are not my rules. I found them on the internet.
But they are AWESOME.
Except I think #3 should be changed to “Whenever Mr. Collins mentions Lady Catherine DeBourgh” and/or “Whenever Mr. Collins wipes his sweaty forehead.”
No but seriously THIS IS HAPPENING.

Clementine: Joely?
Joel: Yeah Tangerine?
Clementine: Am I ugly?
Joel: Uh-uh.
Clementine: When I was a kid, I thought I was. I can’t believe I’m crying already. Sometimes I think people don’t understand how lonely it is to be a kid, like you don’t matter. So, I’m eight, and I have these toys, these dolls. My favorite is this ugly girl doll who I call Clementine, and I keep yelling at her, “You can’t be ugly! Be pretty!” It’s weird, like if I can transform her, I would magically change, too.
Joel: You’re pretty.
Clementine: Joely, don’t ever leave me.
Joel: You’re pretty… you’re pretty… pretty…

Posting this mostly because the 3rd panel made me think of Nella. I could definitely see her singing that song while she sewed something, haha.

O_o Jaime/Brienne?
No, I’m way too enraged at Jaime to ever want him to be happy, haha.
Its Dany and a certain someone who’s had his eye on her for a loong time.
