Crushed

I hate having a crush. And I love having a crush. Of course, it's a completely inappropriate and unattainable crush, but then if fulfilling the fantasy was even remotely a possibility then it wouldn't be as much fun. And torture. There's always that tiny corner of your mind that holds onto the possibility. I hate that corner. And I love that corner. When am I going to get a crush on a guy who will like me back?
Is there a day better than Valentine's Day for watching Romeo and Juliet in Shakespeare on Film class? R&J is the least romantic play in the world masquerading as the most romantic play in the world. We are all so cynical. We trashed the Zefferelli version, and sniffed at the Luhrman. I hate this holiday.

Freaking Finally

It's over! We are finally free! The WGA has announced an end to the Writer's Strike! I will finally get my Heroes back! I have been jonesing so bad. I really hope they bring back Adam. He's too good a character for them to leave him buried alive forever. Plus, I am one of the few people of the opinion that Adam/Takezo's downfall was largely Hiro's fault. I ended the season very put out with Hiro. Why would you convince a man to fall in love with a girl and then steal that girl from him? Just for s's and g's? Anyway. Our favorite TV shows and movies will be up and running shortly which means I will not have to spend the next few months watching Big Brother 75 and Survivor 145,693.
