Almost bed-time.

well, my friends, I have bought a bed. It's a big step for me - floor-sleeping has been getting old, though.

This last weekend I went home! thus my relative internet-silence. I got to see my sister, who is now 21! Yay! and my parents, who are awesome! and my three dogs, who were glad to see me. Also Rosie and some other random people from Kings' - catching up after four-ish years of college, and a year of other-stuff, all in one lunchtime, was rather difficult. But I think we did it. :-)

And, I got introduced to some funny shows on TV, thanks to my sister - Monk, Psych, and House, to be specific. I think "Psych" was my favorite - this guy pretends to be psychic, but really he's just above-average at noticing details - the reason for pretending is that he has to get the police to listen to him somehow. It's hilarious. His ego is great, too - he's a show-off, and his friend is like, "you were just showing off for that girl!" and he replies, "What was I supposed to do, NOT impress her?" He pulls a ton of crazy stuff and somehow gets away with it, and it's very entertaining.

But alas, I'm back in LA, and it's hot, and it's another normal work-week. This weekend, though, Claremont-types will be back at school! I'm looking forward to that, tormenting them once more with my lack of homework and witty ripostes that leave them speechless. Okay, well, at least being weird and nerdy with them. Most are past needing my help with homework, but maybe I could be a character reference... maybe. :-)

Anyhow, as per usual, if any claremont folks read this and need a ride from ONT this weekend, just let me know.

One of my friends and I were discussing the follies of the English language (there are many), and so I'll leave you with this memorable exchange:
her: "Though should be pronounced 'thuff,' like 'rough'"
me: "Ah, as in 'being thoruff'?"
her: "right, 'cough' would be 'cuff' and 'bough' would be 'buff'"
me: "those are taken already"
her: "hm... problems"
me: "well, we'll just have to accept English for what it is, quirks and all."
her: "you're right, enough is enuff. ;)"

I'm good at being a stooge, what can I say. :-)
