Me talking about physics to most people: Particle physics is a branch of physics that studies the existence and interactions of particles that are the constituents of what is usually referred to as matter or radiation. In current understanding, particles are excitations of quantum fields and interact following their dynamics. Most of the interest in this area is in fundamental fields, each of which cannot be described as a bound state of other fields. The current set of fundamental fields and their dynamics are summarized in a theory called the Standard Model, therefore particle physics is largely the study of the Standard Model’s particle content and its possible extensions.
Me talking about physics with actual physicists: i think the earth is round but i could be wrong i have no idea what i'm talking about

Tick tick why have you forsaken me tick tick tick
I used to think the sound of ticking clocks was soothing.
But then I got one that ticked SO LOUDLY I had to move it into the bathroom
And sometimes in the dead of the night I can still hear it
ticking angrily at me.

People like me do not do well with choices.
I get so stressed out when I’m buying binders and notebooks
because I don’t know how many I need
or what size
or which style
or which colors
and it’s all just very overwhelming.

I've decided to call him Carlton.
I’m trying to make friends with the false wolf spider outside my window.
This morning I tried to look at it a bit
and I tapped on the window WHICH WAS A BAD IDEA BECAUSE IT MOVED

I cannot emphasize enough the fantastic and vital work Shark Angels are doing on behalf of sharks. Check out their website and get educated, and involved.

So I’ve been thinking this over for a while and I’ve decided I’m going to start posting at least three times a day instead of my usual two.
I hope you guys don’t mind. It’s just that it takes so long getting through all these drafts I have saved up. I know it’s kind of silly seeing as other blogs post whenever they feel like it. But I queue ahead of time...

Mom is convinced everyone is just as afraid of the...
Mom: Emily can you go downstairs and put the laundry in the dryer or are you too scared?
Me: Wh- It's not even dark yet, why-
Mom: Are you still scared?
Me: No, I'm not afraid of going downstairs, I never have been.
Mom: ...
Me:
Mom: Do you want me to go with you?
Me: NO.

I'll just... roll these back down.
I rolled up the window blinds for the first time all summer and was reminded of why I do not roll up the blinds.
A giant false wolf spider has made its web outside. And invited friends.
