"All they can do is paint me yellow and write "ACHTUNG: Jewish Waiter"!"
Kevin Smith's daughter is named Harley Quinn Smith. For serious.

In other news, authors have been mercilessly playing hard and fast with my emotions this afternoon. I finished three things today - the Green Arrow book, which was awesome awesome awesome, Children of Men, which had an annoying last 1/4 of the story, and I caught Life is Beautiful on A&E.
I'd heard about the film earlier, but never got around to hunting it down. To be honest, I first started watching it because I noticed it was dubbed. The first part (before all of the death camp, Nazi depressing stuff) was quite funny, so I kept watching and it just pulled me in.

So between those three occurred an innumerable amount of death, carnage (particularly in Children of Men... In the end they just decide to hell with it and start killing off members of the group. They always do that when there's a huge group, wtf. And I didn't mark a spoiler 'cos the last part of it sucks anyhow), betrayal (*points to self screaming at comic book "You dick! You dick!"*), and all that good stuff which tends to leave a person completely unprepared to start up reading another comedy novel. Drat.

CJ's last day is next Thursday. =( Damn the seniors...
You know, it's hard to believe just how close the end of the year actually is. Mr. Curless is talking about me using my aide bell to finish painting the mural. (I skipped today because Chad didn't seem to be there.) The more I think about it, the more I think summer won't be as great as I always expect it to be. After all, no friends, no Spanish [except what I might hunt down myself... which will probably be...nada], not much doing anything... We will have a vacation, which is more than we did last year, and I might take some one or two week class at a college and I might do some working at my mom's office, but obviously I won't have something to do every single day like I do now. Which saddens me.

So I need stuff to cheer me up now, I think.
