Quote

"Now tell me what's amiss with me."
"I'm in love with somebody else."
It was my turn to jump out of my chair.
"It's nobody in particular," she explained, laughing at the expression on my face, "only an ideal.  I've never met the kind of man I mean."

-Gladys, "The Lost World"

Logistics


Moving is rough.  Rough for lots of reasons, but today for all the logistics involved.  Too many options on apartments, not enough options on apartments.  So many places I could work, but no one hiring.  I get a few things accomplished, and suddenly there are ten more problems, multiplied like tribbles and trying to eat me. 

So.



If he can say that, then I can certainly say it.  And the more you tell yourself something, the more you believe it, right?  :)

Hope springs eternal!

Music

For the past 20-odd years, my dad has been trying to convince me that he and I used to watch operas when I was a baby.  Apparently, I loved them.  I was not convinced.
Until I fell through a spotify portal and straight into a Marx Brothers movie (seriously, that's what it felt like).

Mario Lanza – Drink, Drink, Drink

He's not bad-looking, either.  :)

So then I decided since I was in the movie, I might as well have fun.
