Grey Day?

I just got back from seeing a really great movie, and I still feel kind of empty right now. I even had a really good day. I got a final taken care of, I worked on a project, and I even managed to have some fun while doing it. AND I got to see some friends tonight...and still, I'm just kind of grey inside. Guess maybe it's just time for sleep, and for Christmas. I'm looking forward to some of that Holiday Cheer right now.

Everyone Wants to Kiss a European

"Seriously! Everyone wants to kiss a European, I'm talking to guys and they're like, 'oh...you're European??' I mean, I know I'm hot, but come on!"

I was chuckling to myself at this overheard conversation while walking up the stairs to the textbook section of the bookstore today. Apparently, this was too much for my capacity at that particular moment. I had, until that point, managed to walk, and chew gum at the same time, but adding in thinking was far too great a challenge for me. I tripped on about the 4th stair, and in an effort to catch myself, I ended up scrambling the rest of the way up on all fours. Yeah, that's right: hand, over hand, with feet following. The effect was much like unto Gollum as he climbs the rocks to get the Ring. It was highly amusing. The poor guy behind me probably thought I was insane...sadly, he probably isn’t too far from the truth.
