The Friendly Hermit

Lesson 1: All flights in and out of New York City are late. 15 minutes late. 3 and a half hours late. Some kind of late. We and nearly everyone we talked to experienced this.

This test is really quick (2 questions) and really accurate, at least for me. If you want to know how I operate, read on. The first is my natural inclination. The second I've grown into more and more over the years. I've also added Allen's results.

Last night we had a semi-cohort party to celebrate the end of the semester. I say semi-cohort because: 1 cohort member didn't show, 3 didn't stay long (2 we didn't even see), and various people from other cohorts came (2 first years, 4 fourth years). There were Christmas Whore cookies (well, really, lots of Christmas cookies and one Christmas Whore cookie), and conversation included talk of anal sex, "peaking" (vs orgasm), and hustling Quakers. All in all a good time.

We brought a "Holiday Red" wine from an AZ winery - semi-sweet with more than a hint of cinnamon. Allen really liked it when we tasted it before. I didn't think I'd be a fan but it grew on me. That could be because I'd already had a couple of other things to drink before I had any, though. Needless to say, I was feeling quite well by the time we left. Fortunately Allen was more temperate. Definitely in my top 5 most drunken moments (which is by some standards probably not saying much). Proud to say I did not wake up with a hangover, thus keeping my perfect record.

Tonight is alienacean's birthday party. More fun shall be had, no doubt.

In other news, looks like my Winter Session class will be full enough for max pay, yay.
