We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Best short film to Helium, FEH. Anyone who has the opportunity, check out Avant que de tout perdre, which really should have won hands down.

megan walker had exactly the same opinion!

I have what is probably one of the shallowest first world problems--my new desk is too big. I've got a little under-desk file cabinet to left and right. The left-hand one is in arm's reach. The right-hand one is out of reach and I have to roll back to reach it--which can be really annoying if I'm typing and need something.

Yes, yes, put the stuff in the left hand cabinet, but I'm right-handed and I've reached for these items with my right hand for eight years.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I commend her on her utter and complete rightness!

I am questioning the blouse under the bodice, but the stripey tights? Well played.

Who was that? I think I need to see that.

I can't sleep. My foot is itching like crazy. I know it is all the mending that is going on, but I wish I could lotion it (was told NO LOTION by the doc) or massage it, which I know would actually hurt more than it would help. So instead I'm whining.

I also watched, and had thoughts. Ellen's first outfit was awful (weird blouse-tie and sparkly blue velvet blazer with black vest? NO). And so were several of her "jokes"--um, the thing about people voting for a film so they didn't seem racist? Less funny when it's (a) true and (b) they're racist.

Somehow, though, both the selfie picture and the pizza thing started out with me rolling my eyes and not finding it amusing, and then eventually thinking it was awesome. I dunno, maybe just the stars she pulled into it (taking Lupita's chapstick!) I'm wondering just how much of it was staged ahead of time (all of it? 90%? 75?). Though I was also thinking "Ellen, you're vegan. Is that pizza vegan? I think not!"

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Yes, it was Whoopie. You should see it, Jilli. Definitely a Wicked Witch of the East reference. As for the blouse, the problem was pairing a blouse that looked like it was business attire with a formal strapless gown.

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