Part of my plan for The Future is that at some point I will join the Peace Corps (it keeps getting put off further and further for one arbitrary reason or another) and so to that end this semester I have started volunteering to teach ESL!

I went to the Watchmen premiere, and it was an all right movie (on Facebook I have a quick review about the film), but I was really distracted because of something far more exciting!
