subj: I require a daily updatesince you have gotten lazy and now quote from our emails instead of writing a daily entry stating what you are actually doing, i am now forced to email and demand a blow-by-blow account of your exciting activities yesterday. so, what's new? how's the foot? have you reserved your copy of harry potter yet?***the thing is, our emails make better reading.i...watched tv yesterday. and wrote some journal entries. and dicked around online. and read. there's an amazing transcript of the last white house press conference on salon...mclellan, over and over and over, saying, 'i'm not going to answer that right now.' tv, also always exciting: gilmore girls rerun, natch, and then i got distracted by some commercial for a cellphone that featured that 'perfect day' song, cause i knew the same song was the theme song or soundtrack song for something, but i couldn't remember what. so i enlisted trusty google. the internet is my friend. the answer? legally blonde, of course. you mean like on vaca? let's all go. road trip! let's see, what did i read...i didn't have the heart for george eliot, who appears to have no sense of humor, so i read 'cold comfort farm' instead. "highly sexed young men are always called seth or reuben." the foot is kind of same old...it's fine walking around the house, but it aches kind of perpetually. i swear, if it's not better in a week and a half, i'll...i'll...wait some more.i haven't reserved a copy of harry potter yet. i should do. i wonder if it's too late.and yourself? surely you can return a blow-by-blow in kind.*** i watched the second half of legally blonde on tv the other night. good stuff. i do love that film. i too have read multiple transcripts of the white house press conference. i did so enjoy david gregory going all buck on scott mcclellan's ass. it was super. i was also amused because when i took this "muckraking and the political media" class, the prof brought in this woman who was a white house correspondent to be a guest speaker. and she said that whenever mcclellan wants to take a breather, he calls on the guy from the india globe. and sure enough, that's what happened. it was hilarious. yesterday i slept in and worked at our summer academy in the evening, where i played bad cop and made a 7-year old see me "in my office" where i ripped into him principal-style for dropping the f-bomb during tutoring. it was oddly fun. tonight i will be continuing my '24' marathon by watching at least part of the second disc of season 3 with drew and aaron before quiz night. friday, i will head to philly to see danielle before she leaves, and saturday, i will head back here. not much else to report. work is excessively long. kathryn saw dick gephardt getting ice cream last night. ***ps-- my dog apparently got mauled by the neighbor's dog yesterday while my mom was walking him, and this required another trip to the doggie ER and some stitches. now i live in fear that my mother is going to be the person who takes the neighbors to small claims court. we shall see.*** pps-- apparently sue webb, animal control officer to the stars, has gotten mixed up in this whole mess. my father is outraged and wants to sue everyone. apparently the owner of the other dog is a town meeting member and the dog is not registered in town, but rather in new york. my father believes this information will bring him down (from town meeting??). i told my father that a situation with this level of breaking scandal really requires its own blog. the drudge report ain't got nothing on this. *** ppps-- according to my father (who does sometimes make stuff up), sue webb said the other dog may have to go behavioral therapy. ***this is insane. i'm picturing vinny in a neck brace, on the phonewith one of those personal injury lawyers who advertise on daytime tv.***yes, but with that stupid dog cone-shaped collar instead of a brace.
