SO. What an exciting week and a half it's been. Let me lay it out chronologically:

Read Oleanna for the first time last night, too. (Though process at the end: "Oh my god, what a little bitch. *beat* Oh my god, Mamet, you son of a bitch, you just made me think that. *beat* Aaaagh. *headclutch ( Read more... )
