I posted that Dolly video days ago. I don't know why it took this long for Youtube to publish it. I'm sure there's only one person out there who really gives a crap, but I'm just saying....

Drew and I watched a hilarious episode of Dick Cavett last night. 1973. Katharine Hepburn. They showed all the footage, including her entrance to the stage, her chastising of the crew, her disgust at the show's set ("Who picked this carpet?!"), and her abrupt exit once the interview was finished. For anyone with TiVO, I highly recommend adding a "Katharine Hepburn" wishlist; you catch all kinds of great stuff.

We found a dog on the street two nights ago.



We're trying to find a home for him today. He and Madeline get along pretty well when he's not humping her, but I cannot handle expanding the family right now. It's just too much. Drew would love to keep him. It just makes things too crazy around here, and I'm trying to simplify simplify simplify.

Mentally I'm all over the place lately. Lots of reading about lots of things, nothing very focused.

I've done some cursory research on student loans, because I'm sure I'll have to get a private loan on top of the federal loans I've already been approved for. And I'm totally disgusted with all the student loan scandals and refuse to just blindly borrow thousands and thousands of dollars without knowing who I'm going to be indebted to. It's a lot of work, though. I need to call my med school today to make sure I'm not supposed to be doing something about that stuff. I need to make sure my undergrad loans are still on hold.

I don't want to do any of that.

I'm on the verge of supporting the anti-Olympics campaign because of the China-Darfur connection, but I can't get myself to really commit to it. I still haven't gotten around to writing to my elected representatives about the war funding. I haven't made any headway on selling my car. I haven't planned our last Philly trip yet.

I'm seeing Nicholas today. It's his birthday. I need to come up with something special to do with him before 2:15. He's turning 10, I believe. Or 11.

If any of you are in the L.A. area and would like a very well-behaved, recently-bathed Jack Russell terrier (mix?) please post a comment.
