kill the innocents!
I'm writing this from Lainie's house, where I'm keeping an eye on the little schmoes. They've been pretty immersed in this video game that takes place in a Star Wars world made of Legos for most of the time I've been here. They call me in when something entertaining happens. Also, I had a snack with Cole and then he ate some Fun Dip and turned his mouth all blue. We talked about different nightmares we had had, such as his dream that Twyla the dog had four tongues. Then he said, "You're a good friend." What a sweetheart. My other interesting quote so far is from when they were playing the video game. Cole suddenly yelled, "Kill the innocents!" So cute, yet so bloodthirsty. He's a complicated man.

In other news, I finally got the third class I wanted. I've got some paperwork to turn in to make my registration official, but unless something unexpected goes wrong with that, my stupid schedule is finally set. For those of you who find this sort of thing interesting, here's what I'm taking: the second part of Theory and Literature (I took the first last semester), a sort of sweeping theory overview with Janet Staiger, a favorite professor of mine; Alternative Poetics with Charles Ramirez-Berg (another favorite from undergrad days), an actual film studies class for once; and a class called Whiteness, about the representation of whiteness in media, with Jennifer Fuller, who I've never studied with before. All in all it looks like a promising semester.
