Christian insisted I watch this satire of the Paris Hilton set. I was wary– one-man show performances tend not to do it for me– but it’s pretty damned funny. And as you might imagine if you know us, Christian and I have taken to addressing one another as “Amanda” and quoting some of the more memorable lines, much to the dismay of everyone who rides the S-Bahn with us.

The video is not safe for work! Or undergrads!

1. Eaten a plate of food that consisted of smoked pork stacked on top of fried pork, covered in 1/2 a duck.

2. Gotten a haircut in the Czech Republic.

3. Tried prickly pear for the first time (fairly tasty).

4. Endured (with Christian) two solid hours of worse-than-usual German staring. If you’ve ever been the victim of German staring, you will know that two hours of it is pretty discomfiting.

5. Learned to throw a football (sort of).

6. Seen the world’s oldest known pornographic film depicting a three-way (I was in a museum, thank you– it was all very historical and on the up-and-up, etc.).

…and sundry other adventures with Mr. Blood. A busy week, all told.
