Grading is the worst! It NEVER ends. But hooray you're moving away from terrible roommates. That's the worst.

Elisa, I think you could sell that book based on the title alone. I'd love to see you write it.

So I went to this dinner tonight for Dave's nonprofit law clinic and listened to people bash Republicans in favor of the people (the poorest of the poor). The host (Dave's professor) went on and on about the need for low income housing, yet we were in her apartment that must cost AT LEAST five million (the living room alone was way bigger than our apartment) and the other students nodding enthusiastically, wearing designer clothes to match their designer educations (boarding school high schools, ivy undergrad and grad). Why is it that the people who claim be the most interested in the poor are the ones that have the least contact with them? Ugh. I need to get out of this crazy liberal land. They can't possibly even try to understand conservative thinking, yet they feel this desire to make the government help the poor, as long as their own cushy lifestyle isn't affected. Am I the only one who doesn't get this?

Sorry for the rant. It's quite astonishing to me, and Dave says he deals with this everyday. I told him that he needs to write a book. I think it would sell really well with the current political climate.

Love you all! Eat some Brick Oven for me.

Jess
