A mild 'bah' this time. Also :D.

Two things to address this post. Both are slightly silly, and they are tangentially related.
One, I watched Hot Fuzz last night with a bunch of my dormies, and dear god how did I go so long without seeing that movie? Apparently my friends who'd already seen it derived as much amusement from my reactions to it as from the movie itself. I had seven guests, most of them piled somehow onto my bed, and we watched it with so much glee. Afterwards we watched All Fired Up (a few people left), and let me tell you, it was a joy to see just how much sheer glee people got out of that movie. I'd only seen part of it. I think that my 21-year old male friend with WFR training got the most out of it, however, judging by how much he was cackling. And to round out the evening, we watched Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, which only one of my guests had never seen. The rest of us, naturally, sang along. And although four of the original people had left, we gained three more random passersby. And then I kicked everyone out so I could shower and sleep because by that time it was 0100.
Ah, college. Such a sinful and depraved place, dont'cha know. What with all the rampant movie-watching and tea-drinking that goes on in my circle of friends. And, okay, okay, I admit it-I handed out Kit Kats. My perversity knows no bounds. Truly.
(but seriously, Hot Fuzz. OH MY GOD. I might watch it again tonight. And I am buying it as soon as I have the opportunity.)
Tangentially related to last night's events of sin and perversity, Nick's peace lily made me really, really miss having a dorm plant. My maidenhair fern died over break (poor baby, it was never the same after the heat wave, and the freeze this winter did it in -sigh-) and the African violet I had last year just wasn't happy here. So I currently have no plant.
I want a plant damn it. They are soothing! They clean the air! I talk to them! All I have right now is a dried rose I got at the dance recital and it's very pretty but that's not a plant, that's decoration. I'm a bio major, people! I NEED PLANTS!
So, I've been researching plants all morning and I think today I will walk up the main boulevard where there are stores and find myself a new plant. Perhaps a peace lily even, though that's a little large for the space I have.
My mom is kind of 'meh' on houseplants, but I love them. Which is slightly odd, because I'm 'meh' on gardening.
Anyway, here's hoping I get a good plant soon. And that this one lives. -crosses fingers-
ETA: I bought a peace lily! :D
