Kat, let me know if you do want to meet at any point this weekend. I will be writing comments nonstop until the sun sets Sunday. I've only finished 4 of 68 as of now, and each one takes me roughly 8 million years to write. To be fair to myself, I did finish grading a set of quizzes and doing a bunch of other lose ends from the quarter earlier today, so it's not like I completely slacked off, but I seriously want to go to bed now, and that is just not an option. I was supposed to do 22 today. I've done 4.

I am watching the original Tran. Because the tumblr feeds I follow are either Tron, Sherlock, Inception, or Supernatural. And A LOT OF TRON. I didn't remember shit from the first time round. It's kinda gay. I see why it's tearing up. It's very shiny. And gay. And Shiny. HE just derezzed in his friends hands, man. That was sad. That CLU.

Pix, definitely maybe for a meetup? Probably not long and dependent on how much I get done tomorrow.

I hate that I keep being in places where my family has to worry about my whereabouts re: natural disasters, but we are still in Australia, not due to hit Japan until the 30th. It's so scary, though. There was a trivia game in the crew bar last night but we all kept being distracted by the news coverage of the earthquake and the tsunami. I hope all this extreme weather calms down soon, but judging from how things have been going I highly doubt it.

I hope everyone here is well!! I'm just fine otherwise. I'm sitting in an internet cafe in Darwin, Australia, and we'll be in Brunei in a few days! I'm super excited about that.

I didn't have to have radiation today because the treatment center was having a computer upgrade, so I decided to celebrate by taking the car in for routine maintenance, which somehow evolved into two new tires too.

As soon as I finish doing the laundry I need for tomorrow, there's going to be wine.

I switched browsers from Firefox to Chrome on my netbook, and when I imported my bookmarks from Firefox, I found a bunch of random pages that I don't remember even looking at, let alone bookmarking. Including this: [link]

I'm wondering if the cats are trying to tell me something.

Thanks, le nub. Somehow the news always manages to find the Union for Concerned Scientists but not MIT.

Oh my god, y'all. I was having a meltdown today anyway and now I can't look at the news from Japan without sobbing. I'd say I need a valium but I've already taken one. I'm glad all our Buffistas and their people are safe.

SHUT UP PEOPLE IN THE STREET. YOUR HAPPY IS ANNOYING.

And because it deserves its own post, hugs, Zen. Hang in there.
