So I was going to write about something totally awesome but then I forgot.

I saw The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford on Monday, it was pretty good. I got a lot of the characters confused with one another and the movie goes on for 2 1/2 hours but Brad Pitt actually gives a really good performance as James. And Casey Affleck did such an amazing job as Robert Ford. I mean, you really really disliked him for killing a criminal.

Granted, I only rented it so I could see Nick Cave play a saloon singer at the very end. I love that man. Also, he and Warren Ellis did the music for the movie and it did an incredible job of setting the tone.

Uhm. I'm actually feeling a lot better about all these insane papers coming up. I don't really know why though. I haven't started any of them, still researching.

My left-click mouse button stopped working yesterday and I spent and hour and a half on the phone with dell trying to fix it. It's still broken. The guy I talked to was really nice though, and really patient for hanging in there with me for 2 1/2 hours. So right now I'm using my tablet to click on things. Hilarity ensues. Like when I forget the buttons broken and click about 10 times in a row on something...

Here are some sketches from my Tufts notebook. As you can see, I lack focus. I lack focus because my head is too full of other things. Like these little drawings. It's a vicious cycle.
