Today has been loads of fun! I've called about a million numbers because I lost my speeding ticket from a few weeks back, and today is the last day I have to get in touch with the court to arrange payment. I didn't even know I'd lost my ticket until this morning. I have to study for my damn final in between calls to every fucking police department in the state. At least the people I've talked to are nice; they're trying to help, but no one can find my ticket in the system. Does that mean I won't have to pay it? Probably not. With my luck, it'll show up and they'll put a warrant out for my arrest. I'll be a fugitive from the law. Shit!

I watched the first Batman movie last night, with Jack Nicholson and all that Prince music. What an odd combination. Batman is a feminist's nightmare-he pretends to be mature and fights crime, but is incapable of getting by without his butler and can never make a commitment to a woman, no matter how gorgeous or smart she is. What a bitch! At least the cast was brilliant.

Do you think my archaeology professor will lose respect for me if I turn in a total shit paper just to have it in on time? He has an infinite re-write policy. It'll be embarrassing, but it's what I have to do. I'll just have to dazzle him later, when I'm home and have a chance to do some decent research.

The guy in that new Alicia Keyes video looks a lot like Mos Def. I thought it was him she was about to kiss, all sensual-like, but I don't think it is. Too bad for her.

Some guy I met on my last flight from Houston to Atlanta called me last night and wouldn't let me get off the phone. At least I get dinner out of it, and maybe a trip down to Galveston, where they find torsos in suitcases and heads in plastic bags. Yay! Let's hear it for dirty coastlines!

hugs and kisses for everyone
