FRIDAY

Dearest Ian,

This morning, I was awoken by my father entering my room holding Rolly. He informed me that this tiny nugget had hopped into his bed and crawled onto his face, waking him up. Seeing as Rolly is currently crawling across my keyboard, I think I believe it. I thought that his story was hysterical, but dad unfortunately did not feel the same way.

How could you not love this?

I read an article today that said that the people with the most accurate political knowledge are frequent viewers of not Fox, not CNN, but Comedy Central. Yes, they get their news from Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart. It just so happens, I get my news from them (but mostly from Chelsea Lately). Anyways, I'm not sure of the accuracy of those figures, but assuming that they are correct, it would seem to imply, being as The Daily Show and The Colbert Report are both left-leaning programs, that democrats are more politically knowledgeable (GASP)! But IT CANNOT BE! I for one am shocked.

Then, I drank a smoothie. It was delicious, except that it tasted like someone had added a dash of hipster.

But what about school, you ask? Oh, Ian, your naivety is endearing. I HAVE CONQUERED SCHOOL. And by that I mean that I did like two assignments in Chemistry and I'm currently mulling over the prospect of a chapter of history. It's a very involved process, thinking about working. It takes up a good portion of my day.

Later, I plan on refilling my coffee mug, taking my evening stroll, and then rearranging my collection of hippo's teeth. How do I do it all? Well Ian, it takes a little sass, and a lot of class.

Oh, I'm also going to a folk music show at an overpriced coffee shop. You can't win them all.

I was playing Words With Friends yesterday with my friend and, a bit desperate, I started playing random letters, hoping that they would be words. And wouldn't you know it, apparently "ratooned" is a word.

Words With Friends Ridiculous Word of the Day: "Ratooned"

-Definition: To stab something with a fork. Similar to harpooned, only with a piece of dinnerware. "Fear not, gentle folk, for I shall ratoon the loose hipster!"

Well, I should be getting back to my studies (ha...). Hope everything at school is good, and tell Eva I say hi because I liked her. Also, is it just me or is that 30 Rock live show theme song disgustingly catchy?

Love Mia
