Today at work I made a prototype Tear-Away Teepee. (Not kidding.) There's a porno joke in there somewhere, but I wouldn't have the slightest idea where to even begin looking.
... [And] I'm sticking to it.

- Last night I was watching a recent episode of NCIS, and one of the characters referenced the story of Aeschylus (he pronounced it "Ay-skee-lus") with the bird (in this telling a vulture) dropping a rock on the unsuspecting man's head... followed immediately by another character finishing up with, "The Father of Greek Tragedy". I felt so hip.

The good news is: I'm not the only international post-grad student still looking for someplace to live for the upcoming school year. I feel less stupid, more validated as a person and part of a larger group.
The bad news is: I'm not the only international post-grad student still looking for someplace to live for the upcoming school year. Options are getting reeeeally slim, and I sorta wish I were there already to claw the others out of the way. Every student for himself/herself!
In two weeks I will have been in England for a few hours, and hopefully will be unpacking a few things someplace cozy and liveable. (Let us pray.)

I found another North and South fan today. They're everywhere. (Also, it's entirely possible that, thanks to yet another member of the N&S rabid fan base, I might have found a version of the completely unavailable soundtrack. *whistles nonchalantly*)

There will be no political commentary in today's post. Unless you add it in the comments, of course - but that's up to you. No pressure.

I love North and South (BBC production). I just saw the DVD last month and I have already watched it twice!! To me, it is Jane Austin meets Charles Dickens.
You'll need to add another North and South fan. My mother is crazy about that show. I don't know how many times she has watched it already but we're nearing the double digits.
