I watched "Brain Man", which is about Daniel Tammet, who sees numbers as beautiful images. I know it's stupid, but at the end of it (I guess with the images and music), I really did feel sort of teary. He said,"the line between profound genius and profound disability is really very fine."

he's really really likeable on the show.



Next week it's about a boy who has no eyes--he rinsed his eyeballs in the sink--he sees the way bats do.

Tuesday's Star Search, which I can't see because of classes; Tuesday's Grey's Anatomy, from which I like the side characters and not M Grey nor her love interests; Wednesday I'm free, so there's nothing on; Thursday night is America's Next Top Model AND the brit show (BBC?) about ghosts; and Friday's, um, PB (Amesuta), which is a Japanese radio show.

I missed Hairspray. I have to write two essays in three weeks and I want to read American-Born Chinese (a graphic novel with much about Sun Wu Kong inside!!...it's hard to be anything but polytheist if you've grown up on the Goddess of Mercy...I feel...); i want to hunt down Carol Joyce Oates' (Joyce Carol Oates?) books. Foxfire is one of the best-WRITTEN books I've ever written, with Donna Tartt's The Secret History (and yes, The Little Friend, except I didn't like the main character). I want to read Blonde, Black Girl/White Girl, Freaky Green Eyes(can't remember what it's supposed to be about), We Were the Mulvaneys, and Gravedigger's Daughter.

I have to stay up till 1am, read tomorrow's readings, should read Thursday's. Then tomorrow I'll have a haircut and stuff.

And it's already 10:21 pm...I've done nothing all day...I slept, seem to have some kind of cough D: I watched Constituency of One from West Wing Season 5, which is really not as bad as people think it is. I can think of some really bad Season 2 episodes, and Season 3. And Season 4's last four were terrible. I think.

rl, tv, movies, books
