Saw Thor tonight, and finished Magnificent Ambersons.  Busy night.

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day.

Grandma was up from NC for the weekend.  She was leaving early Sunday morning, so I went to church in order to spend some time with her before she left.  Her phone went off during some very solemn prayer.  Full volume.  She couldn't find it, and I couldn't stop laughing.  An elderly woman came up to me after the service and asked me why I didn't turn my phone off.

I'm trying to take a 20 minute power nap everyday.  They're supposed to energize you, but when I lay down and fall asleep I can't wake back up.  20 minutes turns into an hour and now I'm full of fettuccine carbonara and cianti and feel pretty sluggish.

Today was the first time I wore a button-down since I shaved my head: I think I look like a serial killer.

Watching The Real Housewives of...New York I think.  Someone once called it an interesting dissection of the postmodern American human condition.  Bull.  Such a difference between these housewives and the REAL housewives of Victorian times.  Those women couldn't manage to feed their kids, meanwhile in this clip, two six-year-olds got a grand piano for their birthday and were serenaded by a Juilliard graduate.  These kids are named Francois and Johann.  I think the mom's name is Karen or something.  Ridiculous.  

Spell checker changed "serenaded" to "marinated."  Should've left it that way.

Sorry for the inane post, but I've got nothing really to talk about.  Trying to wake up from a power nap.

Hiatus Briefing and "Invisible Cities"

Hey all, been a while.  Took a bit of a break as the spring semester started to get hectic really quickly.  Shakespeare, Advanced Composition, just needed to focus.  Sat my final exam today: Shakespeare.  Think I'm coming out with a 3.9 this time around, oh well.  Heading to London in two weeks for a summer study abroad, hopefully I'll be able to keep up with this blog and the London vlog at the same time.  Check in for updates.  Anyway, here's what I'm reading now.
