"Do you have a red Ferrari?" "Why, yes I do." "It's being towed."

So, Nat'l Treasure 2 was good. I'm always apprehensive about sequels...I think the sophomore slump thing applies to movies as well as music. Then again, when you go to a movie with the right people, it can't be that bad. Fortunately for everyone around us, we didn't have to make too many witty comments to make it interesting. Justin Bartha got enough nice lines, and it turns out there are lots of ridiculous federal crimes that can be committed for a good cause. I still think Nicolas Cage is losing hair though.



It's weird being back home, but I think I've adjusted all right. I must have slept for 11-12 hours a night last weekend though. My body basically said, "No more finals? Seriously? Yessss!" and kept conking out even when I didn't give it permission.

Wednesday I got to see everyone at church, and it felt like I was home from a war or something with all of the excited greetings I gave/got. Ya know, I really love those people. I hung out at Melissa's house afterwards, and we talked about our semesters, what had changed, and what was the same. And how scary it is that people our age are getting married.

Thursday a girl who was kind of my mentee for a while called to say that she just got engaged. Thanks for the heart attack, Angel...you're TWO WEEKS older than me! Agh. Anyways, he's a sweet kid and I basically made her promise me she'd have a long engagement. I can't run her life, and I haven't been in it enough lately to know what would be best. Prayer, maybe?

This week I worked close to 50 hours, and it's exciting to no longer be in food service. Even accident-prone Hannah finds it hard to burn herself while filing insurance certificates. Paper cuts, on the other hand...
I've started doing receptionist work also, which is new. I think I have an irrational fear of exchanging information with people I don't know and can't see (go ahead--laugh), so learning the phone has been interesting. I think I'm overcoming it, now that I'm not so worried about accidentally hanging up on someone important--I'll bet this is a valuable film-industry skill, also. "Hello, Mr. Spielberg? I know you're busy, but...uh...could I arrange a meeting?"

Since I worked so much this week, I could finally send in my BlackMac for the $800 repairs the water damage required. My roommate was thrilled that I won't have to edit my projects on her computer next semester. Three months without a laptop was rough, but if a film major could do it, anyone can. :)

Now I have a four-day weekend to relax, and two days to get the presents ready. Aaah. I like this "break" concept. Wonder if I'll be blogging like mad now that I have time?
