I just realized that I move in a week, and so I started packing, then that seemed like too much work for an unemployed person to be doing, so I thought "hey! I haven't blogged in a while."

So, last Friday was Sara's party which I actually stayed past midnight at (I usually turn into a pumpkin) Saturday I wrote my paper on Western Sahara. Saturday night I went to a super swanky Ball at the Swedish Embassy. I'd never been to a gen-you-wine BALL before. It was black tie, but for some reason I wore a sweater vest (I'm going to be LIVING with this person) I actually danced for the first time in a long time. That building is pretty nice, and for this St. Lucia day they send out all these Swedish chicks with candles .... ON THEIR HEADS! Mindblowing eh? Anyhow Sara got us in for free with all her swanky style contacts so that was neat.

Sunday I built a bookcase to match the one I already built, only I managed to screw it up. It is exactly one inch taller than the other one. Oh well, no one will notice. Then I wrote my paper on Armenian Terrorism. My undergrad stuff is finally seriously DONE.

Monday I wasted the day. I don't even remember what I did exactly, oh wait, yes I do. I signed the lease for the new place, bought a mattress, and scheduled the FIOS people to have everything hooked up before I move in. Then I sanded the bookcase that I built on Sunday.

Yesterday I went up to New Jersey to take care of some business. I had to drive back home through the snow. Today got some shit notarized. Bureaucracy has been kicking my ass lately. I'd explain it all to you, but you know how it goes. All this shit happens that's not your fault in any way remotely and you end up on the phone for three hours trying to get shit straightened out. Then it's not straightened out and it un-straightens some other shit and you end on the phone for three hours the next day thinking, "These fuckers should be paying my phone bill!"

Lastly, as interesting as the Madoff story is, I am already sick of hearing the phrase "Ponzi Scheme" Yes media, we know you like your new phrase.

Also, you are my friends and all and I love you, but please do not send me any more "elf yourself" movies. They are not cool. They are creepy! I never really seem to like anything jibjab does ever, maybe it's because they aren't funny. What do you think?
