Last night I had a dream that my family was having this big party and our entire extended family was coming, so we had to make lots of food. Guatemalan food. Because we were Guatemalan in the dream. We also wore Guatemalan clothes. (My family is actually from Italy and Holland, among other places, none of which are Guatemala.) I have no idea what people actually eat or wear in Guatemala.

Today my aunt and I went dresser shopping, and we were much more successful than last weekend. The first place we went was a consignment furniture store--one of the same places we went last week--and I quickly found a dresser a really liked. It was a little bit more than I wanted to pay, but it was exactly the color I wanted, was practically new, and had a matching night stand. We're going back to pick them up tomorrow, cause furniture doesn't really fit well in a Toyota Celica, and there were dead battery truck problems. So now I am a big girl with actual furniture! :)

I made dinner for myself and my housemates tonight, which seems to have been a success. (Even though I did set the smoke alarm off while I was cooking.) I keep meaning to post about my new city/house/housemates/etc... I'll get around to it sometime.

And so... Biden, eh? I'm living in a very politically aware town these days, so I've gotta keep up with the new developments. Not sure what I think of him yet, though.

I haven't done much thinking or researching on Biden, so I don't have much to add other than "eh." Not really exciting. My coworker went to the same law school he did, though, and picked him up from the airport once for an alumni event so he (the coworker) is super excited. :P I need to get informed so I have more to say other than that I know someone who picked him up from the airport -- how ridiculous is that? ;)

Biden strikes me as a pretty safe choice. He's not exciting, but he's not controversial either. I do like your claim to fame there. :)
