Is It Any Wonder?

Sometimes it's hard to know where I stand
It's hard to know where I am
Well maybe it's a puzzle I don't understand
Sometimes I get the feeling that I'm
Stranded in the wrong time
Where love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme, a soundbite

Is it any wonder I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
- Is It Any Wonder? from Under the Iron Sea (2006) by Keane

Just finished watching the LOST season premiere. There were more questions asked, and not a lot answered, which drove me up the wall even more. But it didn't annoy me. The writers on that show are good at their jobs, let's hope they still have one when this whole strike deal is over.
This whole dorm is one gigantic maze. One day it literally took me ten minutes to navigate my way to a friend's room. To quote my friend Lindsey from Davis, CA, "Ka-ray-zee." She's funny. So, I've decided to keep a running log of hilarious things Professor Leon says. On Wednesday I asked Professor Leon a question about class.

Me: Excuse me, Professor Leon? What did President Bush talk about in his State of the Union address? I wanted to watch it, but I had other work to do.
Professor Leon: Well, to quote the great American philosopher, James Brown, he was talkin' loud, and saying nothing.

Ha. Ha.

This weekend I will make another journey to B&N (Barnes & Noble) hopefully the Georgetown one. Uloma flipped when she heard I had found a location, and that someone loved B&N as much as she does, so we're planning on going. Hurrah.
