Marked down for the holidays

I'm gradumatating in 39 days. I'm not actually going, though, so I'll just have to cordially present myself with my diploma later, when I receive it in the mail. Also, it turns out I now need to go shopping for a new wardrobe of nice, business casual clothes for a new job. Anybody who knows anything about me will understand how terrifying that is. In better news, I found a lovely pair of jeans for $30 dollars, and then hell froze over.

Joel asked me what I would do if we ever lived somewhere that didn't have the Food Network or BBC America. I pondered it for a moment, and realized something kind of sad: which basic cable stations are available will play a large part in where I decide to live in my life. Pathetic, but true.
