Things I've learned

I love me a good jacket potato for dinner (with beans, peas and cheese mm) but I've always microwaved my potato because it takes 8 minutes versus the hour it takes in the oven. I have been so wrong. Yesterday I put my potato in the over approximately an hour before I though I would be hungry and my potato was so so so much more delicious than if I had cooked it the "easy" way. Also apparently, cooking it in the microwave takes away a lot of the nutrients in a potato. So, not only are oven baked potatoes more delicious, they're healthier too! But then again, an hour is a long time. Yumo. And yes, my life is SO exciting that a delicious baked potato counts as one of the highlights of my day (reason I am single 11).

James Franco on how his appearance on General Hospital is Performance Art. I wonder what the producers of GH thought when Franco asked to appear on the show. It's so absurd to think about, but I guess if he's doing it for arts sake...

decisions

I don't think I could live in England forever. All my IO seminars that heavily focus on the evils of America have made me want to return home where I can focus on the domestic evils of America. I don't even know if I'll look into applying for a visa extension. But I guess I'll see how the next term goes. I do definitely like a lot things about living in the UK, but I guess when it comes down to it, I'm an American and America isn't so bad that I would want to flee its borders TS Eliot style.

I think it all probably comes down to me needing a vacation. I'm sick of climate change. But I guess it's not going away!

Thank You

Hollywood for making another terrible looking romantic comedy, coupling a neurotic woman and an absurd premise. I will NOT be seeing this.

Stress- Excitement

This week has proven to be the most stressful of the year so far. I have so much to do and I feel guilty having moments where I do nothing. Wah. But at least I have the final season of Lost to live for. Here's an amazing promo the Spanish created (because apparently the Lost team isn't releasing anything from the final season, so the Spanish had to be super creative and work around this).

Oh good the fat from fat people story was mad up. Happy morning!
