drama final: finished. not handed in yet, but jane and sun are going to ferry it over to pinchin's place for me. fun fact for the day? jane pinchin collects essays at 2, rather than four like every other colgate professor.

only one more essay question to go! with about two and a half hours left. i hope to hell there isn't too much revising to do on question one, which there shouldn't be.

i am definately not going to a movie again tonight, as i remembered i have to bang out my abstracts so it looks like i'll be doing this two days in a...

it's been may 3 for three hours so i only feel like 34% of an asshole for posting again so quickly (not like anyone reads this thing anyways) but i'm out of stuff to distract myself with online and my paper is dragging itself along. i fear the wrath of pinner because though i thought i had a pretty good handle on what i was...

so i'm sitting staring at one of the clone army of dell flatscreens that populates the lab at the fsu center on sunday evening (or maybe it was monday morning?) and i brilliantly think okay if i bang out the majority of this paper tonight i will reward myself by buying 10,000 days tomorrow first thing in the morning. what a great way to get...

10,000 days gets released in the UK tomorrow. i'm not crazy about spending extra money for it (thankyouverymuch shitty exchange rate) but the tool fan/asshole in me wants to get it anyways just because. i love getting new releases by my favorite bands the day of, it's one of those little joys in life that my consumer whoredom provides me.

monica sent me a really long email and i loved it. and tim got his "neckface the ripper" postcard and loved that, too. i'm just a bundle of pleasantness today.

as if too much good stuff happening wasn't enough, there's a love music hate racism free concert in trafalgar square today and motherfucking belle and sebastian are playing. i want to go and i'm not...

drawing purchased. now it really is beans and toast week, no turning back. i can probably survive most of this week on my current larder, except i'll need to procure some more peanut butter soon. i have enough beans for the rest of the week, plus a few servings of couscous and basmati rice. and maybe i should get some veggies too so i don't...

beans and toast week has started, albeit a bit later than i'd planned. the parents slipped me a few pounds this weekend but i spent them all on food and drink in a relatively short amount of time (though i got a lot of drink for my buck, thanks ULU). then there was a tasty plate of curry at spitalfields and a giant eclaire. so...

well, like the asshole i am i forgot about the cannibal corpse show in camden last night so no death metalings for me. it's not that bad, though, since i get another chance to see them this summer....with GWAR, and tim, no less. and i filled the time up with a spanish feast con la familia at pirata in mayfair. i had cochinillo asado, keeping...
