On Friday, I was useful in helping my boss set up for an open house museum exhibit. He needed skeletons to show off to the public, so after he got the dogs and monkeys set up, I suggested a platypus and a cat. He loved it. I love museums.

Between that and my awesome Public History class, I can't wait to actually start working in museums. I'm also doing a project stretching between two classes this semester on the historical impact of the Battle of Blair Mountain and why it seems to be missing from the national historical memory, and hopefully one of my professors will be publishing part of my work in a project she's doing and giving me proper credit for my contributions. I finally feel like I'm actually moving towards a career in History.

I finished The Lonely War which turned out to be pretty good, and learned how to make whiskey sours without ice (because I'm out of ice). Good whiskey apparently helps a lot.

Taking advice from Kelly I see.

I get to go see Pedro Páramo performed by Teatro Buendía at the Goodman Theater and take part in a Q&A session with the director afterwords, all for free.

EDIT: It was amazing. I <3 magical realism so much.

I was right up next to the stage for Napalm Death tonight and they played a bunch of classics like Scum, Suffer The Children, You Suffer and their cover of Nazi Punks gently caress Off, which everyone was singing along to. It owned so hard.

EDIT: It was either singing along, or my ears echoing, one of the two.

Bought a brand new, stupidly large for our needs TV yesterday. I was up until 1am playing video games because video games on a stupidly large TV are awesome.

Amnesia on a 40" HDTV, old school wood cabinet speakers, gaming PC with settings cranked up to max at 1080p, midnight with all other lights off. It's the best loving thing ever.

Someone at work dropped a jar of deep red pasta sauce less than half a foot away from me while I was kneeling on the ground and absolutely none of it got on me or my khakis, meaning I don't have to redo my laundry I just did yesterday.

Yesterday, our school did an annual food drive (that the local food bank really depends on) with the usual goal of getting 10000 food items. I found out today that we got about 19600, a new personal record. It's also awesome because last year, we ended up getting 8000 because hardly anyone showed up.

One of my old universities forgave your library late fees if you brought in food donations instead. It's a really, really effective method of getting lots of food.

As for why I'm excited, I finally get to put up my A Christmas Story leg lamp. :3:

I did a Magic draft at my town's new card shop tonight and the guy's payment processor went down right before I paid so he agreed to let me pay after. I drafted a Windswept Heath, and paid for the draft with it when we were done. So I basically got a new deck for free.

Had a super boring week that included going to the dentist, doing my taxes, driving my mom around to do errands since she broke her shoulder, changing the brake pads on my car, etc. Ended it last night by driving a few towns over to see Get Out at the fancy theater with big comfy chairs and poo poo instead of the local run down theater, and it completely made up for the rest of the week being boring as poo poo. Great movie, great audience that never interrupted to make stupid jokes and poo poo, no technical difficulties like the other theater I mentioned earlier always has, just movie bliss.

The only theater in my town was an independent one, and it started going downhill to the point it was about to close. Another small localish chain of about 4 or 5 theaters took it over and remodeled it, and now it's a lot nicer(leather electric recliners!) and still way cheaper than a big chain place.
