This is my absolute new favorite thing: a beautiful song, puppets, archaeology, and mummies, all together! You should all go watch it immediately!

Last night, F made me go with him to an orchestra concert on campus. For some reason he really wanted to go and I kind of didn't, but then I think I ended up enjoying it a lot more than he did.

She says he is perfect
How could I compare?
