Nice Joss Whedon article in Entertainment Weekly (he really seems like a good guy):
http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20049318,00.html. Apparently (I guess some of you guys probably know) he's doing a Serenity comic in addition to the Buffy comic.
I've taken to DVRing late-night talk shows that have people on that I like and watching them while I eat dinner (I don't have to time to watch actual shows- it's sad), but I watched one today with Judd Apatow (director of Freaks and Geeks, Undeclared, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, etc.- basically anything that is awesome) today and he's really funny (especially his Adam Sandler story):

SuperBad comes out on my birthday (August 17- it's a Friday)- would anyone like to go watch it that night? Also (**very geeky- or is it dorky? I forget.**)- I love that when I go to rottentomatoes.com to see the reviews for Superbad (not enough at this time), there's a clip of Judd Apatow talking about the movie under 'trailers and clips' wearing a t-shirt with Bill Haverchuck (Martin Starr from Freaks and Geeks) pasted on it. That makes me happy.
Back to the endless reading. Oh, yeah- I get to submit my grant (which means I passed that part of quals, I think).
