Heaven, Hell or...

I am feeling that after-final pre-Christmas lull. Ah, it's a childhood thing. I always felt a void about this time of the year. The year's done, nothing to do (Yes! no tenure file to turn in!) but to wait for the next year to roll in. Now that nothing to do part may not be entirely true, i mean i spent the whole morning doing advisement and prepping for a new BS program that should be ready to submit come Winter, but a little pretense never hurt anyone, right? :-D

Today i made two decisions. The first was that i want go for that MA in french. So i talked to the chair and mapped out a path. I need 36 more undergraduate credits before i even apply. So yeah, like in two years. C'est une bonne idée, n'est-ce pas? The second is that i am going to Las Vegas for new year. I am. Are we? Oui, mon chéri. Don't ask me how the two are related. Hmm, perhaps i am feeling lucky?

Yesterday i saw an interview of Mr. Pitt on CNN. I think i am beginning to like him as a person. Never as an actor though. Well, unless he is in something like Seven or Fight Club, providing a fitting backdrop so i can concentrate on Kevin Spacey or Edward Norton. LOL, no offense. By the way, i heard from some reliable source that they completely changed the story on The curious case .... except that age going backward factor. Darn it, just as i feared they would! In any case, i doubt that anyone can portray FSF's lyricism in a film anyway. Wow, so many anys!

I have mr jones to thank for ...getting me to read FSF. That, and then some. Ah, so many things in you i admire, my dear. But no time to gush. Maybe later.
