i actually did christmas present hint dropping today...something i've never done. i intentionally yammered on to my friend Nick about the complete season 1 of Highlander that just came out on dvd, and state quite explicitly that i would not buy it until after december. in the hope that he would mention it to the other peeps and they would pitch in and buy it for me. we have a CAC agreement (cheap ass christmas) the terms of which are under $10 and/or homemade for each giftee. but it can be extended to $15 if necessary and there are no rules against going in together to buy one bigger present...

so i felt kinda dirty about it. but i hope it pays off. i almost bid on ebay for it today. i'm sooo bad.

and i got absolutely nothing done today...well i did about a page and a half of my poetics statement for poetry theory...but i meant to start on my play. i am sooo running out of time. Nick suggest my plot should be the poets attempting to take over the world and i kinda liked that idea. but i'm no playwrite. i can't even write stories...it's why my focus is poetry, hello! so this is no easy task.

it is so bloomin freezing in here....what's up with that? perhaps my window shouldn't be open at a quarter after 1 in the morning in late november...but seriously, it's way colder than usual...i hope cold weather is coming. we dont' get enough of it. hmmm...weather.com says it's 50 degrees...brr. it feels even a little bit colder than that. and i was right it is getting colder. rain next week woo! and overnight lows in the mid 40's.

i am such a freak.

if my hintdropping did any good... i could see it as coming from all my friends, making buying for me easy. god i wish. it would be better than the crappy stuff they'd get me otherwise.
