had another nice movie filled quiet day
woke up, watched Top Gear (yesss) James Bond Special (hammster <3)
then Best of Show (super funny)
then my documentary of the day on Gerard Richter--honestly i felt really uncomfortable watching the movie because it was really obvious that Richter hated being filmed, and i couldnt get Pollock out of my mind
but still some beauutiful artwork

sigh
oh well!

sandy convinced the govt to shut down for today and tomorrow and for nmai to cancel of all of its big events
my interview got cancelled and after watching my documentary i think its for the best because it opens me up to really pursue those what i want to pursue and what will open for me :)
