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.

Love secretary, been meaning to buy it for ages but it's kinda hard living with my folks and having a dvd with THAT pic on the front. It's hard enough trying to explain 'bound' to them..

"Yeah it's about gangsters...hot naked lesbian gangsters....."

Hee. I can imagine the horror of having your folks pop in Bound by mistake. "Hot naked lesbian gangsters" indeed.

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.

The problem will dissolve on Sunday: I'm moving out then so I'm free to indulge my taste for Maggie Gyllenhaal's backside as much as I like.
