Just another Non-Manic Wednesday
22 days until I return to hell. I don't think I ever needed vacation as much as I needed it when December 21st rolled around. If, as the staff said, the next semester is harder I might go completely mental. Not that it would be a noticable change, of course.
I'm meeting with three classmates tomorrow afternoon to go over some units from our massive (2200+ page) med-surg text. I somehow worked it so that my units are the shortest; the poor woman doing the cardio unit has 300 pages to chapter in addition to the two other units she's doing...ouch. I stayed home instead of going to the school's Career Services in search of an on-campus part time job like I'd planned in order to write up my notes.
On an unrelated note - I watched Secretary this afternoon. I could have sworn I'd watched it previously but I couldn't remember much outside of the last couple of minutes. Thank God I didn't watch it with my mother like I'd originally planned. The family that watches S&M-lite together does not stay together. I liked it until the end, though. Lee did that other guy dirty. I don't need to necessarily like my protagonist but they have to be at least *likable*, and she lost me at that point. But THE SPADER. Mein gott, The Spader. Much love for that man. What happened between Secretary and whatever the hell the name of the show is that he's on? It's like his hotness evaporated.
Making chicken right now. The roaster's in the oven, but the little plastic popper refuses to pop up. The chicken's six and a half pounds and has been in there for more than two hours. I think it's done but fear of salmonella is keeping me from removing it until I get the popper's seal of approval. Why must you thwart me, oh Perdue Popper Thinggey!?!?!
I'll give it ten more minutes and then, pop or no pop, that chick's coming out.
The W.Virginia miner drama is wrong on so many levels. It raises the question - do you leave people hanging until you get positive proof? or do you try to soothe with whatever information comes your way? Imagine losing your loved one not once but *twice* in 3 days. Damn.

I'd suggest you buy the DVD and then place in in a black nondescript case, but that itself would seem plenty incriminating. And then, heaven forbid they get curious about what's in the black case and open it up to see Maggie Gyllenhaal's backside tastefully displayed.

That's one of my biggest cooking fears.

I was watching Good Morning America this morning and they were saying that one of the rescue people down in the rescue .... tunnel... thing, said something about 12 and 1, and someone misheard and then all the people gathering around took the word of the one person like a horrible game of telephone.
Still, I couldn't imagine going through that. What a horrible, horrible feeling that would be.

re: the mine-
That's what it sounds like, but I can't help but think the mining co. was looking for any way to assuage the family and so was too hasty in passing the news along. That they'd be faced with a lawsuit was quite apparent, but now they have this huge additional psychological blow they dealt to the families as well. Someone with sense in their head should have said "this is a good sign, but PLEASE wait for positive confirmation before this gets back to the family".

Isn't he on Boston Legal? Or...something like that. I think he gained some weight and cut his hair...And then got old.

Did you see Crash? It's as weird as Secretary and it has two things I'm fond of: THE SPADER and man/man kissing. God, THE SPADER - the only reason I tolerated Stargate.
no subject
I haven't seen Crash. I wanted to, though. Doesn't it have Ryan Phillipe in it? I didn't know Spader and man/man kissing were involved. That's an even bigger incentive to see it.

Not this Crash. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0375679/) THIS Crash. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115964/)
THE SPADER was in the height of hotness there.

I *really* liked Secretary.
It just hit the spot when I happened to see it a couple years ago.
There are things that of course I wouldn't do myself in it,
but I still think its a beautiful story.
I like the fact it doesn't judge them for their quirks. The fact that two people can make their wierdnesses work together tho, is the beautiful part of it to me...Aside from some parts of it being a major turn on.
