So I'm basically just waiting for fall television to begin...

.....You may think I'm kidding, but I'm not. At all. Talk to Beebs if you don't believe me, but I may have an unhealthy obsession with certain TV shows. And they don't restart until the end of September. IF NOT MID-OCTOBER!!!

Sorry. That was embarrassing. I'll be calm.

So aside from my slightly pathetic despair over the continued "summer" hiatus of my favorite TV shows (EVEN THOUGH IT'S PAST LABOR DAY, PEOPLE. IT'S TIME FOR FALL), here's what I've been up to:


Obviously, reading, studying, reading, reading, and then I followed that up with some more reading! (I also read a book for fun this weekend, which I attribute to some sort of mental disorder I apparently have. You can throw this fact back in my face when I go blind at the age of 25.)



I did another "LA" thing and attended a free screening of an independent movie! In this case, the movie was Liberal Arts, written, directed, and starring HIMYM's Josh Radnor.

 While I'm not sure I'll rush out to buy it the moment it comes out on DVD/Blu-ray/Redbox/etc, I really did enjoy it. It made me think and laugh, and Elizabeth Olsen was great. (Side note, if you don't know about the younger Olsen - IMDB her! She's awesome.) And while it's true that - as my friend who saw it with me noted - Radnor does rest rather heavily on his assumption that he's irresistibly charming, I liked him as the protagonist.

PLUS, there was Zac Efron.
I know - I was as surprised by his appearance in this film as you are I'm sure. But he was actually hilarious. As if I needed another reason to appreciate Zac Efron!

You're welcome. 

 

Let's see, what else....

The Cowboys beat the Giants last Wednesday! And therefore the bet Raymond and I had made concerning the game resulted in this awesomeness:

That post is going to come back to haunt him year after year....

And finally, since today is Sept. 11, I'd like to end with my thoughts of gratitude and prayers for all the brave men and women serving our country in the armed forces.
This evening, I was blessed enough to be able to participate in a clinic that helps homeless veterans obtain the legal information they need to help improve their lives.
 I'm so happy to be attending a law school that will let me be involved in such a wonderful program every month!
