1. Thesis nearly complete. Signed, sealed, and delivered to the graduate office so that they can get muffin crumbs all over it and tell me to tighten up my margins.
2. Worked for five days at a convention for the biotech industry downtown. Hippie protesters fought the convention's tenets for existence ("shaping" public perception of genetically modified food, resisting government involvement in price control of expensive drugs) by shouting outside. I agreed with the protesters but had to suck up to the big pharma fat cats for an hourly wage. Certainly an interesting experience.
3. Sold two pieces of jewelry, one returned for no reason whatsoever; neutral feedback on my etsy site gave the unintelligibly frustrating judgment that my necklace was "not as pretty as expected." Well, seeing as I post close-up pictures, this customer was not as intelligent as expected either. Dumb people don't need to wear my shit.
4. The beach! I sunburned the backs of my knees the other day, so bad that I couldn't bend my legs until this morning. (Fug still lives, in case you're wondering.)
5. The West Wing. Holy shit. How have I not watched this show until now, A DECADE after it started? So, so, so good. The politics, the intrigue. The feminism! The sexual tension!!!
6. Up til four, sleep til noon.

I love The West Wing. I wish Matt Santos (Jimmy Smits' character in the last season or so) were a real politician so I could vote for him. We're Obama all the way at my house, but Jimmy Smits = so much presidential hotness.
I'm glad that I could contribute to the enjoyment of your summer. It's also the least I can do for the hours of Sex and the City we watched together.
There's so much more WestWing goodness to come. CJ only gets more kickass and Josh more geeky-sexy.
