But nothing&#8217;s quite as good as a G.I. Joe doll idly wondering, &#8220;Will I ever have enough clothes?&#8221;  Thanks to <a href=\"http:\/\/thequasiworld.blogspot.com\/\">Kevin<\/a> for the link.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;ve been in absolute la-la land lately.  A lot of those &#8220;complications&#8221; I mentioned in a previous entry have worked themselves out, and I&#8217;ve been having a blast.  Last night I cooked <a href=\"http:\/\/www.celiacchicks.com\/images\/Pravda.borscht.jpg\">borscht<\/a> for the first time, and it actually turned out pretty well!  Granted, we cheated a bit and used a food chopper device, which made the beets a little more minced than I would have liked, but the end product was superb.  We sucked that down with some red wine and some warm bread, cleansed our pallettes with a raspberry liqueur (which was heavenly, oh my god), and watched a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0319531\/\">couple<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0120684\/\">movies<\/a>.  Everyone had left after the first movie, and so just the two of us were left to snuggle through <i>Gods and Monsters<\/i>, which saw us both passed out within a half-hour.  So I guess I can&#8217;t say I really watched it.  But the first half-hour seemed quite interesting!<\/p>\n<p>Something which may surprise some, dismay or anger others.  I&#8217;ve pretty much decided that if I get accepted to McGill that I&#8217;ll defer for a year, during which time I&#8217;ll also apply to the University Of Washington&#8217;s MLIS program (which I was too late for this year, unfortunately).  McGill would be awesome, and Montreal looks fantastic, but ya know &#8230; I gotta see about a girl.  It&#8217;s not an easy decision, and nothing&#8217;s written in stone yet, but for now I feel like putting grad school back a year and perhaps not doing it in Montreal is a smaller sacrifice than letting this amazing woman possibly slip away.  Hey, it&#8217;s a surprise to me too!<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"http:\/\/iffyatbest.blogspot.com\/\">Theo<\/a>&#8216;s mentioned, tonight we&#8217;re going up to Seattle for a bit of club-hopping.  They have a deal in Pioneer Square where you can get a club pass (7 clubs) for $12.  Not bad!  We&#8217;re gonna start out with some grubbin&#8217; at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.neworleanscreolerestaurant.com\/\">The New Orleans<\/a>, a place I mentioned previously when I went up to Seattle with Christine and met some great swing-dancers, and then the guys are gonna swing over to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.owlnthistle.com\/owlhome.html\">The Owl &#8216;N Thistle<\/a> for to take advantage of their nice dart boards and fine brews.  Then who knows what the night may bring.  I&#8217;ll be sure to let you know.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it for now.  I&#8217;m gonna go try and write a micro.<\/p>\n<p>And now your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.extremefunnypictures.com\/funnypic197.htm\">moment of zen<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And monkeys are awesome, so it&#8217;s all good.
