02/20/2005: "It's one of those non-Jewish days again"
Song of the Day: Stellar Project feat. Brandi Emma - Get Up Stand Up
My weekend was bright and cheery since I got to see my little sorority sister Amy on Friday night. It's the first time I'd seen her in 9 months, and I was sorely tempted to kidnap her and keep her here with me. If I had my way, Amy, Shannon, and Melantha would all live within five minutes of me so that I can keep all my best girlfriends close by for spontaneous shopping trips and overly expensive meals at the Cheesecake Factory ($161 for six of us Friday night, oops).
Since I go to what seems to be a Jewish law school, I do not get President's Day off. Either President's Day is decidedly un-Jewish (seeing how there hasn't been a Jewish president yet), or else the school administration decided they were way too generous giving us Martin Luther King Jr. Day off already.
The good news is that my Monday afternoon class is cancelled for the next few weeks since the only thing we're doing in it right now is writing an appellate brief. The professor seems to think we'll spend the afternoon writing. Yeah right, I'll bet you $100 that my bed will be calling my name as soon as I step back in the apartment.
Will and I watched Friday Night Lights this weekend, which prompted me to ask this question: how many movies can we have about a teeny-tiny town where high school football is a religion and one member on the team has a father who played on the same team during his youth and abusively expects his son to be spectacular? I know that FNL is based on a true story, and I can't even remember if the team in Varsity Blues won their state championships or not, but I feel like we need to mix up the high school football movie genre a little.
