It don't matter to me
Cause all I wanted to be
Is a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar
Oh my god, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
Oh my god, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home...
Oh My God from Employment (2004) by Kaiser Chiefs
Right before Professor Leon finished class on Friday, he gave us details of our class on February 6th, which is a Wednesday. He said that we were going to meet in a room in the Rayburn Building. So I started to think it was on campus, right. Wrong, oh so very wrong. He finished by saying, we were going to meet in the Rayburn Building in the U.S. House of Representatives. I did a double take and looked around. For real? So I will have a class in the House of Representatives. That just sounds cool.
I managed to find a Barnes and Noble today. Very nice. I've always loved B&N. I wanted to find a newsstand to read a Rolling Stone cover article on Radiohead. It wasn't anything spectacular. But I did find a copy of No Fear Shakespeare Hamlet... the GRAPHIC NOVEL! How kick ass is that? A graphic novel of Hamlet. *Note to self: Methinks this would make a great Sin City/300
type movie, gotta hang on to that idea. There were numerous security guards on every floor, the looked like the ones you would find in a bank. Gotta protect that knowledge. Walking back to the metro I encountered a truck, with a somewhat whimsical quote on it. Long story short, I did my research and figured out that the quote was said by a DC-based children's book illustrator named Itzah C. Kret. Mr. Kret is an ambassador for a national grass roots holiday called, International Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day. Apparently this takes place every first Saturday in February. I might make an effort to partake in this.
Now, back to Thom, Colin, Jonny, Ed, and Phil. I'm listening to Hail to the Thief (2003), and this deserves my full, undivided attention. G'nite.
