Looking at directions from airport to university, so now I'm less worried about getting lost in Montreal when I go there. Still a bit afraid of dying in a plane crash and being really far away from everything and everyone I love tho.
My teacher (who is one of the best I've ever had) wrote a mail asking to speak with me after class about my latest essay. Since I turned it in one month late I was prty fucking nervous, but he just told me that my last essay was brilliant, asked me if I was a historian (acually is anthropology maojr) and shook my hand.
my 27-yr-old gambling addict roommate only got 4 of the 5 boxes to make his poker table in the mail today and has since been shouting on the phone and drowning his pain in mike's hard lemonades i am so happy i could cry
An elderly Indian co-worker made lunch for me (and herself) today. Spiced rice with dill, peppers, and homemade yogurt on the side. She tends to bring me lunch at least once every 2 weeks, this is like the 15th time she's done this for me. Fuck I'm spoiled.

Lol, wrong thread, I was going to post this in the post stuff thread (as it's... well... stuff). Too lazy to repost it there now. I'm just clarifying that I didn't have a strong emotional response to receiving this email.
So NewPages is a website that reviews literary journals, and they're #1 on the web for that sort of thing. They are the giants and visited by an enormous number of people (see Alexa--the ranjking is out of ~5 million). Today I was shocked to get a Google Alert saying my name had been mentioned by them. I followed the link and it turned out that they had reviewed Gargoyle #57, in which my poem was featured. Not only did they name me as an example of the "great poetry" in that issue; they actually quoted my poem. I was the only poet out of the 600-page issue to be directly quoted. I could dance. I think I will. http://www.newpages.com/literary-magazine-reviews/2012/03-15/#Gargoyle-57-2011
