Ha Ha Freaking Ha

It is plain to see by the number of pageveiws of the last post that you readers prefer "asylum" to "fangirl". Also, my name is not Eunice Jesophat. The Other One is somewhat insane. Obviously. Anyway, she was right that I've been rather busy with school. I will try to post a more normal (in both content and length) post at a later date.

Introductions, part 2

A total of nineteen posts, including the non-published ones, since March. Well, that's just sad. I disapprove.

There's a maximum of 52 of you out there (highly unlikely) and in case you haven't noticed, this isn't your normal blogger. You can call me The Other One. I'm "E.J."'s annoying multiple personality, and at the moment she's too busy searching for truth and cookies to do a blog post. Which leaves me as the one screaming my thoughts to an unfeeling, ignorant internet.

E.J. and I will be returning to school in four days (five counting today) so who knows when you'll be hearing from either of us again.

E.J. is not her real name either, by the way. It stands for Eunice Jesophat. She probably doesn't want me blahging that for the whole internet to read but none the less it is the truth. Nobody cares about your secret identity, Eunice. I don't think "Eyez" is very high on anybody's hit list.

Since I'm not reviewing anything, or talking about school choirs and how they shouldn't cover Glee covers (Eunice's most-read post, ranking in at a pathetic 11 pageviews) there's a good chance no one will ever read this.

Good grief, Eunice, your self-pitying resignation to anonymity is rubbing off on me. Stop that now.

Goodbye, Italy, America, Canada, Germany, The United Kingdom, Denmark, Estonia and India!

Fear Me, For I Am Eyez: The Searcher of Truth And Cookies

I don't know if I should really be getting such a feeling of validation and general awesomeness simply because I received a nickname from someone who I only know based upon his blog posts and Tweets, and who only knows me based upon a thesis title I wrote in the comments section of one of the aforementioned blog posts.
A bit of background for those lucky few of my readers out there who don't live inside my head (it's crazycakes in here). Dan Bergstein is famous in some circles as the author of the Blogging Twilight and Blogging Harry Potter series. Serieses? Plural series on Sparknotes.com. He is a bit of a folk hero to some of us geeky girls who spend too much time on the internet.
Anyway, in a recent Blogging Harry Potter post, the readers were told that if we came up with a thesis title (not the actual paper, mind you, just the title) we would be rewarded with a nickname. I submitted mine ("The Llamasaur: What It Is, Where It's Been Hiding, And It's Potential Effects On The Theory Of Evolution") and was rewarded with the nickname Eyez: The Searcher of Truth and Cookies.
I can already feel this Eyez personality developing. She's everything I wish I could be in my more insane moments. She probably rides a Llamasaur. The Llamasaur probably has a funny/clever name, like Poncho or Tenniseir. She's self confident and she fights crime, and she's sarcastic and smart and a little insane. And, of course, she spends her days searching for the perfect truth and the perfect cookie.
Then again, I'm totally reading way too much into this. It's just a nickname. But nonetheless, I still feel pretty awesome.
Eyez out!

P.S. I've found out how to insert a link!!! It's not as complicated as I assumed it was. I feel quite proud of myself.
