physical plant took down the R2D2 dome despite telling reporters that they would keep it up until thursday morning. bastards...

i did a majority of my packing today. i disassembled my stereo and lent it to greg. tom and i took a large carload of stuff to my office for storage.

tom also emptied a lot of his stuff out today; the place looks really desolate. both of the stereos are gone, there is no music. it's eerily quiet.

abie, helen, jen, and i went to a place over by BU called the 'deli haus' for late-night grub. helen and abie were very drunk.

it sounds like we're going to drive out of here friday night, visit helen's family in new jersey, probably stop by my sister's place at rutgers, and then drive out from jersey saturday around noon. that gives us a full 7 days to reach our destination.

i'm so excited.

also, tomorrow is star wars! the reviews i read today were really bad! they say it's all SFX and no plot, which seems odd to me. i can't wait anyway. i'm really pissed off at 7 news, they gave out a spoiler on the news.

NOTE: SW:TPM spoiler ahead, stop reading if you care.

the lady just blurted out that the queen was luke and leiha's mother. i didn't know that, and i guess it's probably not a huge plot element or anything, but i would have preferred to learn it in the movie rather from some lady on the news.
