Folks, don't take me too seriously on the whole moon thing. It kind of felt like someone punched my teddy bear, you know? I'm not going to go all Save the Moon and Pluto is a Planet on everybody.
Tonight we saw a movie about two Palestinians who move to the US. It was called "Amreeka". I liked it a lot and encourage all of you to see it, but I did feel like the the portrayal of Americans was a little one-dimensional. Kind of an interesting perspective to have your own culture get caricatured. Also, I couldn't buy Alia Shawkat as an Arab, but apparently she's half Iraqi so I actually blame that on the fact that I've seen Arrested Development in its entirety three times.
Tomorrow we begin orientation. Should be a whirlwind day. I'm looking forward to it.
I'm looking forward to people coming to visit me. Please come visit me!

So what you really mean is that the moon is yours... it's your teddy bear.
