today i ate a tootsie pop at work and felt slightly unprofessional. but i didn't have a choice because i forgot to bring a new pack of gum.
also, i have been reading too much MLIA, because now i'm talking like those posts. awesome.

4th of july weekend
this weekend i went down to williamsburg to welcome alex back to the states from nicaragua and celebrate 4th of july in our nation's birthplace. unfortunately, he came back with a bout of bronchitis, so we spent most of the weekend eating, watching movies, and napping (pretty excellent weekend if you ask me, haha).
as for movies, we saw public enemies with johnny depp (pretty good if you like gangster movies), taken with liam neeson (awesome but kind of makes me afraid to travel alone again), and valkyrie with tom cruise (didn't have the same enthusiasm for this one as maggie...i feel asleep like 4 times, and as expected, i struggled to find tom's portrayal of a nazi at all convincing).
we also drove down to the law school to watch the fireworks from the car, which was fun. leonidas was less than pleased with all of the exploding noises but he recovered. then while sitting in traffic to get home, alex and i traded off throwing snappers out the windows, which was surprisingly quite amusing.
hope you all enjoyed the long weekend! happy birthday america!

keys in a tree
today while walking leonidas, i saw this:
it is a set of keys in a tree. i have no idea what they were doing there, but let me tell you, it took all my willpower (and the desire to avoid having the police called on me again) not to take the keys down and try them in various things (i.e. the car in this picture, the house whose yard the tress was in, etc). so as a note of caution, don't leave your keys in a tree, because someone with less restraint than i may try to break in :)
