To do

Fun and not so fun things on THE LIST:
1. GRE Literature Subject Exam test prep. IT'S COMING IN ABOUT 3 WEEKS. KILL ME KILL ME NOW. I'm scared, but eh, such is life.
2. Article due Thursday, meaning Wednesday night. Will I make it?
3. CD launch party on Wednesday night! (this means I need to GET MY SHIT DONE)
4. Final paper for one of my classes due on Thursday
5. re-reading Watchmen for the 4th time. BRILLIANT. I wanted to re-read it after watching the movie, which I thought was pretty effing cool.
6. re-reading The Balcony, The Crucible, some literary criticism, etc. lots of review but of good stuff.
7. Philosophy in the Bedroom. Marquis de Sade is so much fun! oh sex and philosophy, unbelievable combination, particularly for an 18th century Frenchman. The correlation between a person's view of the mechanics of society and view of sex is absolutely amazing.
8. Reviewing the anthologies
9. Finals prep
10. Enjoy the company of some truly wonderful people.

No-no List:
1. People who don't understand "no"
2. Alcohol as a crutch and then an explanation
3. Non-confrontational and passive-agressive
4. Not cleaning up messes within 48 hours, max
5. Taking advantage of others' benevolence
6. Inconveniences to larger groups of people
7. Severe back pain
8. Not being able to drink caffeine for 5 days
9. Pure, unsweetened cranberry juice. So gross and it makes me pucker like the world will end.
10. Extremely inappropriate behavior and not being sorry for it when it affects others

Oh Yes! List:
1. Venting. is. beautiful. Makes me less of a crazy person
2. Good food with excellent company
3. Learning to enjoy staying in bed
4. Unearthing the steroid cream for my eczema after thinking that I lost it in Wa DC.
5. My pillow
6. Extraordinary Desserts. They're extraordinary.
7. Rooibus Chai from Teavana
8. Blogging. It's part of my venting process, so always a good thing.
9. Apples to Apples. One of the best games ever ever EVER
10. Talking to my sister about Watchmen and being really excited.

Friday night was not my favorite night. Sunday was one of my favorites.
