"Hustle" is the one with the group of con (?) people who are tricking rich people of their money, with "you can't cheat an honest man"?
Yes, it is.
Hi Nilly! I was just contemplating trying to go back to sleep, but now I am torn.
'Sleeper'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

No, go back to sleep. I'll probably still be here when you're up again, anyway, but then I won't feel guilty about posting with you.
Morning.
I have no idea why I woke up this early.
I think my plans for today are doing laundry and going to the Container Store. Very exciting. (I've hit onto a sudden "I must clean and organize my entire apartment" thing. I think it's a way for my brain to distract itself from studying.)
Hi Hil.
I think I may just go back to sleep, Nilly, but there is no reason on earth (or anywhere else) for you to feel guilty, even if everything is your fault.
"See" you in a couple of hours.
Hil, at least you're distracting yourself in a productive way that will help you later to study, right?
Night, sort-of, Perkins!
I'm awake! And trying to convince myself that I don't have to go to a job interview tomorrow if I'm 75% sure I won't be here in the fall.
Hi, Nilly!
Hi, Emily!
Not being there in the fall means a possible job somewhere that is else?
That's the idea. I'm thinking West Coasty thoughts.
Hil, at least you're distracting yourself in a productive way that will help you later to study, right?
True. So far, I've gotten the piles of papers and stuff off my couch, desk, and the little table by my door. Still need to deal with my kitchen table and the clothes that are strewn everywhere. But I have free desk space! Lots of it!
In totally unrelated news, I'm reading a story about how the military is keeping mentally ill troops in Iraq, sometimes putting them on antidepressants but not giving them real counseling or support, and certainly not sending them home, and it reminds me of the story I read recently about how no state has met the requirements for having "highly qualified" teachers in every classroom by this year. In both cases, my response is, "Well, DUH. Actions have consequences, people."
