Why watching Troy on AMC is bascially the same thing as going to l'italiano

Eric Bana + Brad Pitt + Orlando Bloom + The Iliad in movie form = Fantastic way to spend an evening.

So, The Iliad is Greek mythology, but, you know, Greece and Italy are like Mediterranean Second Cousins, so, it's the same thing. Right? I knew you'd see it my way.

Now, if only my Professor did....

Note: I had a splitting headache that started at 5PM and I was in no real condition to go to class. Like a good little student I e-mailed the professor and asked to go to his office hours. I haven't done that in forever. Am I a nerd? When did I become a nerd?

I'll be in his office hours on Friday. Because he has office hours today. But, I didn't study last night, like I told myself I would.

Instead, I managed to burn my arm on my oven, somehow do more online shopping, and watch The Office on TBS.

I was very busy.
Where would I have found the time to study anyway?
(Also, I forgot to wear earrings today and it's bugging the bejeezes out of me!)

I absolutely LOVE Troy....I could watch it over and over and over again. I think you are justified in not going to class...you had "important" things to do, totally understand. :) Love your blog by the way...you give me a good laugh often. I am saving money like crazy hoping to take my husband to Italy for his 30th birthday...I have been to Rome and the poor guy's out of state vacation was Mexico..Tijuana at that. He needs to be "cultured"...lol.

Troy = all the education you'll ever need (I kid, but it's a pretty good flick none the less) and no, you're not a nerd :) I used to do that all the time when I was in undergrad.

PS love your blog -- too funny!
