After 8 days of working non-stop, except for sleep and food and transit pretty much, I am taking a break to eat Girl Scout Thin Mint light ice cream and watch the latest Mad Men episode.
And then I’m going to go to sleep and be productive again tomorrow.
Academic Coach Taylor is concerned about you.
You’re welcome. I’m off to go do academic things now.

New York fans: 2pm on WNYC.
Just finished first season last night.
Sons of Anarchy.
Jax’s biker hair is gone. And the babies are grown. Weird.
After that tough run, I showered and changed into the most comfortable, unattractive clothes imaginable (baggy sweats and a sweater), made a hot toddy with more whiskey than tea, and curled up on the couch with the cat to read. Not too long after - passed out.
I woke up from the nap about two hours later.
Read some of Franzen’s Freedom and made more holiday calls to family members.
I just splurged and ordered some Thai food I can’t afford (oops) and have the Downton Abbey holiday special downloading.
Solid solid evening, friends.
GPOYW “cooking for one” edition.
So many of my friends have left town, I’m not going home for the holidays, and I think I’m coming down with some sort of plague, so I decided to cook a decent meal for myself and watch more of Homeland. I modified Rachael Ray’s egg pasta with leeks, cutting back on the number of egg yolks, exchanging beer for white wine (since I didn’t have any) and adding a bunch of greens. I also cooked up an artichoke, and I have a friend’s home-brewed milk stout on the side.
My dinner may not look so yummy, but it tastes great.
is a great show. Hooked.

So far, enjoyed him more on Party Down than on Parks and Rec. But I’ve only watched a couple of episodes that have him, so I’m trusting I’ll like his character more soon.
Dang, he’s a good-looking human being, though.

I’m only just now watching the first episode of this season of Community (yes, I know, kind of delayed - but also, it makes for an excellent midnight dinner #2/writing break!).
And the bio professor introduces himself:
I’m your professor, Dr. Marshall King, Ph.D.
It took me 6,205 hours to get my degree.
Perfection.
I am about to jump on the bandwagon, thanks to becool-sodapop and Netflix. I need to see what this is all about.
And of course, this is a way better use of my time than schoolwork.
