Let's Sink Another Drink, 'Cause It'll Give Me Time To Think
A Proper Blog Post :)
1. Working at the Registrar's office is going as well as always, even if my time there tends to drag on a bit everyday. For those who don't know, I do a lot of data entry-type stuff at my job and I answer the phones and talk to students and all that. I've actually been doing this for the last six years so I'm pretty much a pro by now.
2. I'm still enjoying the emotional thrill ride that is my Counseling Internship. Granted, some of the kids are real shits, but I love 'em anyways.
3. Nick and I are going to be celebrating our 6 year anniversary in a few weeks (Dec. 2 is the exact date but because that doesn't fall on a weekend, we're doing it Dec. 4) and we're going to Ginza of Tokyo for sushi :) I'm super excited about going there because it's one of my most favorite restaurants.
4. I got the new Flight of the Conchords CD last night and it's awesome and funny and awesomely funny.
5. I absolutely love last night's episode of Glee. The music and the devotion to side character development made me smile :)
6. I'm also quite happy with the results of last night's So You Think You Can Dance. I mean, it sucks that all the tappers are gone now but I can see why that would be the case. I'm crossing my fingers that Channing is next to go. She may be talented, but she really comes across as a total ice queen.
7. I'm not happy to find out that Dollhouse got canceled because it means I won't get my fix of Victor and Sierra anymore. However, I'm also not surprised and I'm glad that FOX plans to run all 13 episodes still.
8. I'm currently in the middle of three books right now, one of which is a book on CD. The first is a "fun" book called The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie. It's got all the good stuff like betrayal, violence, romance, good and evil, magic, etc. And it's got Inquisitor Glotka who's gotta be one of the best characters ever. He's a sadistic, torture-loving man who suffers from his own disability (gotten when he was tortured during the war). The second book is Guy'd Lines, which is written my on-site supervisor at the counseling center who's name just happens to be Guy. It's a culmination of what he's learned being a therapist and it's really quite useful. The third (my book on CD) is Tweak: Growing Up On Methamphetamines." It's a memoir written by Nic Sheff and it details his descent into drug addiction.
So there you have it. An update on me :)

I am so glad that your registrars job is going great still and that you're enjoying your counseling internship!
I LOVED the episode of Glee last night with it's side character development. I'm totally obsessed with it! :)
You will have to tell me what you think of Tweak! I bought the book a few months ago but haven't been able to sit down and read it yet but for one reason or another, I find the subject interesting.

I've really been loving Tweak so far. It gets pretty intense but the storytelling is good.

Also, Glee was amazing! I almost cried, and my friend totally did. It's so heartbreaking, but in a good way!
And, wow, Dollhouse is canceled? I haven't watched this season at all...sorry, Joss.

And six years congrats on that! It's impressive. Sorry to hear about Dollhouse though, even if I never watched it.

I'm definitely thrilled about the 6 years benchmark...and if my cards are right, I'll be getting a ring at graduation. *crosses fingers*
