Melissa Miles McCarter

The week is almost done! I can see the light. There is this place called Melissa.net that is devoted to Melissas. I wonder if there is a site devoted to any other name. I am downloading SETI@home, so I can look for aliens. I just found out that I will be teaching this summer--MTWTh, Friday off, for 5 weeks, beginning at the end of May. I will also be taking a class, so my schedule will be from 8am-10am and 10am-12pm.

I made two discoveries this week: this morning I figured out how to open my blinds and earlier this week I figured out that my air conditioner (and not heater, which has been on for months) is finally working. The fact that it took so long for me to figure out how to open my blinds is my stupidity, but the air conditioning, I figured out awhile ago, is controlled by the apartment complex. Anyway, now I have bright light and my apartment is cool (while it is 80 degrees outside). But my blinds aren't opened all the way because I have a messy downstairs right now. I tried to open the blinds to the upper part which faces my loft, but I pulled too hard and broke a piece of it-now it hangs precariously. I have to do a film for my digital studies class and I dreamt that someone, some soap star, taped over my film with something about vampires. I was so upset, but what I kept saying was, "I can't use this, it is a narrative, it is a parody--where are my people walking and my students typing?" The soap star could not figure out why I was so upset. Of course, I had to beat her up. I think watching Cecil B. Demented this weekend affected me.



Long live Sinema!

here are some sites I try to check up on regularly:

can you say obsess-i-o-n

obligatory X-files riff: what are they going to do? will the new guy fight it out for Scully, against Mulder? Will they cross over to the Lone Gunmen? Will Scully's baby have green ears, or become an honorary FBI agent? Will one of them turn out to be a Russian spy...turn in next week.
