my interesting weekend:

     there was an accident on our little street corner and part of the stone "university of missouri" sign was broken, but it hadn't completely crumbled away.  the letter "u" had been knocked off, though, so we decided to replace it...with bubble gum.  no, we didn't "glue" the letter back on using the sticky stuff.  we actually made a big "u" out of several packs of abc gum and stuck it on.  it was great fun, but now my jaw hurts and we felt sick from chewing all that gum!  that was my immature, yet extremely fun, moment of the week. 

     i saw a very strange film today.  then i watched it again.  unexpectedly, it threw me for an emotional loop...i just didn't see it coming.  i identified with this character on so many different levels that it was just creepy.  it was a tad emasculating, so it made me wanna grunt and burp and scratch myself to cover up the gasps and awws and, yes, there may have been even a tear.  the best part was that it had a happy ending, so if you don't mind reading movies (it's in french), go rent "amelie."

well, i hope you all have a good week.  i'll be back shortly, i'm sure...
