What's Really Been Grinding My Gears:

1. Poorly wrapped burritos: Is it so hard to wrap a burrito that doesn't fall apart when you put it down. This has been a very poor development at Caprito Burrito due to the hiring of an incapable staff, except for Elba, she keeps the whole team together.
2. My iPod batter: For some reason my iPod battery has been dying quickly these days. I'm going to be really pissed if the thing is dead; it's only about a year and a half old.
3. The weather in Boston: Over the weekend it got down into the 30's, but today was amazing and over 60. I'm glad that the weather was warm, but these radical fluctuations are toying with my mind. I know it's going to be crappy out soon, these nice days are only here to tempt me.
4. Laundry: It's just a pain in the ass. Having my dad do my laundry at home is right up there with my mom's cooking as things I miss from Baltimore.
5. Arrested Development being taken off the air: Similar to the way Bill Simmons declares a 5 year grace period on any team that wins a championship, shouldn't TV shows that win Emmy's be exempt from being cut. The show, although without a huge viewing population, is hilarious.


Things I'm Looking Forward To In The Near Future

1. BU playing Duke tonight in basketball tonight: Granted we're going to lose by 40 points, but we're still on national TV playing at Cameron. It'll be a fun game to watch as JJ Redick kicks off his senior year by dropping 3's on the outmatched Terriers. We're starting as many freshmen (2) as they are preseason first team All-Americans.
2. The new Harry Potter movie: Goblet of Fire was one of my favorite books thus far and I'm really looking forward to see what they can do with it as a motion picture.
3. Sleeping in my own bed for a week: It's not that my bed at home is anything that special, but it's a nice feeling to be back in my old room just the way I left it.
4. Thanksgiving: My second favorite meal of the year (to break-fast of course) is something I'm extremely excited about. My family's cooking is amazing and not only am I looking forward to the main meal itself, but the day after sandwich is probably the best sandwich known to man.
