*giggles madly* I think this is my new favourite Bushism.

Man, it’s so great to have a Liberal roomie that shares so many of my interests. I love being able to share hilarious internet stuff with people IRL. *schnoogles Ko*

Glock drew River and Simon and Kaylee for me! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! My love for her and for them knows no bounds. [Note: You have to be a member of the glockart community to view the post, and if you’re not, I heartily recommend joining. She is so fabulous there are no words!]

Oh. My. Good. Gravy.

Mom and Ko just took me see “Hero.” This is easily one of the most amazing movies I have ever seen. Go see it. Now. I am rendered incoherent by beauty.

WOW. Wicked = SOAMAZINGLYAWESOME. Everyone must fly to New York this very minute and see it, or else this friendship is over.

Mum and I took the train to NYC yesterday morning and spent the day shopping and generally taking in the city. Then we went to dinner at Sardi’s and saw Wicked, which was wicked awesome. Even though it has absolutely nothing in common with the book, which was quite vexing at some points, but I learned to cope, and all was dandy. And let the record continue to show that Idina Menzel is beyond fabulous.

So now I’m back in Philly, waiting for my storage boxes to arrive. Mmm, modern conveniences! Is it really really nerdy that the thing I’m most eager to get back is my bookends? And they’re not even cool bookends, they’re just basic, functional, bent pieces of metal. But they will make my room orderly and nice, and for that I am grateful. Mmm, bookends. I so need a life.

I’m in Philly! I’ve unpacked all I can at the moment, until my boxes of stored stuff arrive on Saturday morning. Right now I’m hanging out in the computer lab with the ITAs, making sure my laptop is up to snuff security-wise. It’s so great to see Ari and Jing again, and my fantabulous roommates Ko and Deep. And M, of course, former roommate of Ko! Tonight we shall engage in zany hijinks, hurrah!

Clearly, today is “link to stuff Cyth links to” day. Ah, I love Nathan. :D Spread the Serenity love! Or if you haven’t experienced the fabulousness that is Firefly yet, go buy/rent the DVD! You won’t regret it.

1. Um, the writing is really good.

Cyth suggests starting potential Browncoats on “The Train Job,” and I concur. Though it’s tragic that one should miss out on the Rose-Tinted Glasses of Moral Ambiguity. Sigh. Hmm… I wonder if my roommates still have been unexposed… *cackles*

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I am so glad my classes end at 4:30 on Wednesdays. I must remember to bring my copy of GO that Neil autographed! Woo, doublesignage! Urgh, I wish I had more songs from MAA finished. Maybe if I spend the next week frantically working on “My Kind of Town” or “I, Comma” I could polish something half-decent… EEE!
