Oh Baby It's Cold Outside...

Rosette: Do you have a mandatory meeting today?
Will: No, I have about half a dozen people tripping on acid in my room, and weak acid at that.

oh Tewks.

Margaret, Lily and I helped Cat move from Tewks to Williams. And yesterday I went to a party thing at Williams and met Cat's new roommate Sam, who's...not your standard person at all.
Mostly the party was just slightly drunk/high people walking in and out of the common room, because there was not enough critical mass for it to not be awkward. Disney's Alice in Wounderland was playing on the wall, music and a strobe light. All the lights except for the Exit signs were out. Someone borrowed my swiss army knife to open wine. Security came by and closed down the party twice, even though calling it much of a party is a bit of a stretch, though there were people...and...social mingling, and beer. Williams tried though, and they were so proud of themselves too: looking through the pane into the common room, admiring the party like a piece of artwork. I ended up mostly being in Cat's room (until 1:50, talking)
(I don't know why I remember the time so exact. I woke up at 8:30 today. The earliest I've gone to bed this week was 9:08).
Citizen Science is horrible. Set up for kindergartners, not college students. I'll rant about it once it ends. Some good stuff: Walked on the Hudson river with Sam, Andres, Margaret and Hannah. It was worrying to get off: the edges of the river were less even because of the tide, and some points kinda...wet. And the waterfall that runs into it is still running, not even pretending to be frozen. But overall very very solid on this side of the train tracks.

Went to Redhook a couple times. Made gingerbread with Margaret and Cat. Walked to Montgomery place with Margaret and Jennifer.
and snowball fights.
Wall-E just now (finally).
But also: Citizen Kane, The Dark Knight (again), Knocked Up (handled half of it), Children of Men, Wedding Crashers.

Brifly Discussing "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother"
Me: I don't know, I think my parents did a pretty good job parenting. I mean, if not with me, then with my brothers.
Margaret: shrug the first blintz gets clumped
(I translated "первый блин комом"and its hilarious to hear it used in English)
