Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness. Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

I'm having serious trouble keeping up with TV. I'm spending part of my day off cleaning off my TiVo. I just watched the Rachel Maddow from the night Prop 8 was repealed. I have a ridiculous amount of TV to go: 3 eps of White Collar, 3 of Being Human, all of Rubicon so far, 10 Colbert Reports, 9 Daily Shows, and 2 Leverages. Inexplicably, I'm caught up on Project Runway and Mad Men.

I feel your pain, amyth. I was out of town for two days and was never in the room to watch TV.

I feel a lot of pressure from my tivo sometimes. It's almost work.

I know! I broke up with Covert Affairs because of the pressure to keep up!

hwæt

Strangely, I'm watching more TV shows now than I will be once the Fall season starts.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I taught my first class of the day. Went fairly well, I think. I've got three more in the afternoon. Yesterday, I was so tired by the last class that I had to concentrate on just forming words and sentences. I'm figuring I just need some time to adjust to the schedule.

At the end of the first class today, I heard one student say to another, "It's over already? That went by so fast!" which I'm choosing to take as a compliment, and another student thanked me for my explanation of something, which he'd seen before but just as something to memorize, not as something to understand.

I'm glad that a lot of the summer stuff is wrapping up. I worry about the new season :)

Because books.

I can't think of any new fall shows I want to see, aside from Undercovers.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, I had to delete a few Top Gears unwatched. I just caught up on Leverage and Mad Men. And I wrote up a big thinky post on Mad Men and how they dealt with the Japanese issues, but my phone ate it.
 
The one thing that`s weird about the liquid pencil is that it doesn`t smudge. Rubbing it with your finger just erases it. Which is okay I guess, a benefit that it doesn`t get on you. But I would think that would make it not so useful for drawing.
