Totally random, awesome discovery of the day: my dad's work buddy Al was featured in the documentary Wordplay, which chronicles the creators of The New York Times Sunday crossword puzzles and those who solve them in competitions. It's a pretty cool documentary, so I'd seriously recommend it for all of the word nerds out there.
For no particularly good reason I now declare that all references to my current institution of higher learning shall be henceforth the University of Moose.
My friends and I have been debating about which apartment buildings where we'd like to live next year, but the negotiations have been slow going - assuming of course that any of us will get a decent number in the housing lottery. I feel a bit like I'm still pretending to be a grown up; to me, having a place of my own, shared with friends, where I actually have to worry about cooking and remember to get extra paper towels has always signalled adulthood to me. It's just strange to think that in a few months I'll actually have to get my act together and hope that my roommates won't kick me out! My father was ousted by his roommates at the end of his first semester freshman year because he kept hitting his alarm clock snooze button for too long, so my family history doesn't look good :P Luckily our habits tend to be fairly in line with each other - we've already established the no drinking, no smoking, no sexiling rules, which is a relief.
We start shooting the 3rd episode of Birnkrant 616 (the absurd sitcom about Nazis in college that I work on) the week I get back. Due to the fact that I was only able to show up to two shoots for the second episode and steal three pages of that script, I have no idea what's going on. Then again, nobody else knows what the heck we're filming anyway, so I guess it's all good. I do know that this past episode was a technical nightmare. I'm seriously thinking about finding another job on top of copy editing that pays better, so I'm not sure how that will affect how many more episodes I can crew for.
Oh, and I go back to the moose on Saturday. If there's anyone from home who really needs to see me before I go, Friday afternoon would be best.
