Quote of the day: Chauvelin: "We defend ourselves the best we can, using what weapons lie closest to our hand - "

For those of you who are as of yet unitiated to my world of obsession, you may not be aware that today is the birthday of God's gift to musical theatre. :-) That's right, Anthony Warlow turns 37 today. And, I have to confess, I've done little to celebrate, but I can justify that with the fact that I had seven hours of class today. But now that I'm at home, I've just made myself a mug of hot chocolate and have put on Anthony's "Best of Act One", and am enjoying myself very much for him. :-)

I had a really lovely conversation with the lady at the Leukemia Foundation of Australia who took my donation last night. She didn't even seem all that frightened when I told her what had prompted me to make it! She even said it was "sweet"! If only all people reacted to my obsession that way. :-)

I'm so tired of all my classes right now...I had my Canadian Politics course tonight, and during our discussion group, things got pretty ugly between one of the guys in the class and this older woman (mature student, or whatever the term is), who were arguing about the state of the social safety net in Canada. Now, the guy is very intelligent and really diplomatic, and this woman tends to be very emotional, but passionate. But it irritates me to no end that she constantly emphasizes that her opinions are better than everyone else's because she's "experienced" so many things. Now, I don't doubt that she's seen a lot, and probably knows a great deal about the specific area she deals with (disabled people), but that does not mean that the opinions of this highly informed, educated, though younger man are insignificant. I couldn't even say anything after that, I was so turned off.

*sigh* I LOVE this CD! I really have neglected Anthony lately, and I feel terrible about it, but Douglas is just so darn compelling! :-) Of course, if my biggest problems in life lay in trying to pick between these two men, I would be very content indeed. :-)

I'm really not saying anything of consequence, am I? I think I'm just tired, so maybe I should give up for now and go to bed. I'll try to write something a little more interested tomorrow or the next day. Good night!
