I saw Burn After Reading today at lunch and I think I might have enjoyed the Australian Beef Pie I ate more - but that's because IT'S BEEF PIE. Yum. I need to learn how to make Beef Wellington. That might have been one of the best things I ate in New York. Anyway, about the movie, I was not prepared for how pointless it was and how jumpy it made me.
Yesterday I played Super Mario Galaxy ALL. DAY. LONG. It was embarrassing. I stopped when my arms hurt too much for me to play well.
I signed up to take the GRE on the 30th for some reason. Well, for the reason that it's required for graduate school, but I'm really scared that I'm going to put it off until I don't study for it at all. Should I study? I decided to take it this month so that I would have time to take it again if I bombed. And when I took the SAT, my best score came when I wasn't trying. I think I'm also terrifying because John told me that he had so much trouble with it...and John is smart! Kind of. Well, yes, but not as smart as I am (based on SAT scores, GPA, and the fact that I'm able-bodied).
It hurts me to admit this here, where people can read it, but I haven't done shit with thank you notes yet. Ughhhh. I wish there were a person I could hire to do this, like when Cartman hired some Mexican men to read The Old Man and the Sea for him in season 11. Season 11 of South Park is fucking amazing, by the by.
I just spoke with my parents - they're taking Kirby to the park for one more good run before the storm really begins. My dad told me about this really helpful website, stormpulse. I highly recommend it.
Oh, of course I forgot something. This may be totally common knowledge by now (cuz John was all like, "ohemgee, duh, you didn't know??") but they're making a (non-documentary) movie about Harvey Milk, which I'm really excited about. I really hope that turns out to be stellar, and hopefully more people will know about him and his legacy.

I blog less when I'm happy. A lot less. I think that's true of everyone,
really. You're too busy experiencing the moment and spend a lot less time
moaning ...

You didn't like Burn After Reading? I was looking forward to seeing it. Do you like Coen brothers movies? Sometimes if you don't like one, you don't like any.
Remind me to tell you the story of my literary criticism prof and Fargo. It's a good one!
I would have to say that I am a fan of the Coens, and I didn't say that I disliked the movie, just that my beef pie was more enticing.
John might have put it best when he said that there are some four or five Coen films that are better.
