back to classes today. i have mixed feelings this morning. i'm a little nervous--new class, new prof, etc. and i'm a little excited--new class, new prof, etc. you know, general first day of school anxiety.


shouldn't have stayed up late last night but i was sucked in by addictive tv.


first, i finally caved. after years of swearing that i wasn't at all interested, i watched american idol. how could i pull myself away? even sparky as sucked in. sad, i know. we are sad. how cute was that little cowboy kid? he doesn't stand a chance, but he was cute all the same. big voice for such a little feller.


but what makes us sadder is that we watched "skating with celebrities." it was a train wreck. but todd bridges? on skates? whatchyou talkin' 'bout willis?? and he totally should have lost. no way he was better than bad buffy. bruce jenner? scary, scary man. *shudders*


i redeemed my viewing habits by catching up on lost. not sure i like "knowing" who the others are. and why could they do that deflecto thing? what was that about? and i am still calling him sawyer--'cause it's cooler.


yay for tivo so i could skim through all these shows commercial free and sans boring bits.


so now it is off to figure out the all important "first day of class outfit" and pack up all my crap for the train. just glad it isn't raining and hoping i didn't completely kill every brain cell with my late night tv adventures.
