We've been given our parts in the nativity play, and I'm the lobster.

Thank God this movie is on TV right now. I've been stuck in clinical case study hell since 10 this morning, and I'm still not finished. I'm really just trying to get done with it so it won't continue to ruin my weekend, but the ol' attention span has checked out for the night. Anyone want to hear about blood glucose control with low glycemic index formulas vs. high glycemic index formulas for tube feedings in patients with diabetes?!?! Me neither.

Me. Neither.

On my flight back from Florida this past Thanksgiving break, after I finished watching this movie (Love Actually, if the title of this blog and giant picture mean nothing to you) on my laptop I decided to click on the director's commentary in the special features to kill time. (I'm aware that that sounds like a weird thing to do. I didn't even know director's commentary existed until we had to watch it for A Beautiful Mind in my freshman seminar. Don't knock it til you've tried it) Truly, I recommend it for anyone else who loves this movie as much as I do. All the actors are involved in the commentary and talk about the movie as it plays through. Did you know that Hugh Grant is wearing two different ties in the scene that he first meets his new staff because of a wardrobe mistake after he took a nap? Or that the original scene with that little kid running to the airport gate involved him doing ridiculous flips and gymnastics to get there? Yup. I'm full of useful information.

Oh, I tried McDonald's coffee today because I was walking over on that part of the drag this morning. Tasted like coffee. Not sure what all the hype is about. I also bought a Powerade for the bum who asked me for one on my way in. Consider it my Valentine's Day good deed. He told me to have a blessed day, and I then dropped my coffee and spilled at least half of it. I'm blaming that (and the fact that I've been typing this effing case study all day long) on Friday the 13th.

Happy Valentine's Day, whether you're celebrating or not. Get in the spirit - watch some Love Actually, eat something dark chocolate-y, give a bum a Powerade ;)
