Three things I'm happy about:

1. I always love when MR comes to town. I'm mostly excited to see her, but that fact that she brought an ice cream bucket of chicken salad to my house this weekend didn't hurt. I'm fairly confident that I ate at least a third of it. Soooooo good!

2. I made it to page 17 in my seminar paper yesterday! I rewarded myself by buying the new Kate Nash album. So far I hate "I love Seagulls" or wait, I love "I hate Seagulls." That's confusing.

3. Today I am showing a movie in my class. Then I'm letting them go early. I love having the power.

And then the search for your purse, your shoes, your keys, your coat, standing with all these things by the doorway, trying to decide whether or not to say good night... ...Just the thought of it exhausts you, and when you contemplate even the first of these moves--the turning back of the covers--you realize the imp
