chocolatepotI definitely recommend following ApparentlyEverything on Tumblr. I'm going to try to stop talking about the recent election and how I disagree with all the narratives on FB/LJ*, but he is happy to do so and to argue with people, so it's cathartic.

Mom came up to see my Requiem concert on Saturday, and then yesterday she drove me down to Owen's apartment in Albany, and Owen took me the rest of the way to Dad's. We went out to an Indian restaurant in Albany that was very good - sadly, it was interrupted at the end by a homeless(?) woman who came in to use the bathroom, was asked to leave, and started shouting abuse at the waitress (who was roughly 1/3 her size). It was pretty awful, and I feel bad for not getting involved but after she told them to "go back to India" Dad did, which was great considering she was also much bigger than him. She left roughly thirty seconds before the police got there. I hope she wandered off completely, because she was threatening to beat up the waitress when she got off her shift.
Then today Dad took me to the car dealership, we did the paperwork, went to the Troy DMV (much more stereotypical DMV than the one in Canton), and got the car! It's a dream. A ~4 hour car ride is so much more tolerable when you have an iPod on rather than listening to the same CD over and over and over, and you can hear the music over the engine. Also it got about 30mpg averaged over the whole trip.
