gogmagog: The Fourth Doctor from <i>Doctor Who</i> (NEED CAFFEINE NOW PLZKTHX)

I would drink a beer, but sadly I have no bottle opener and am made of fail.

This upcoming week involves me turning in my comps portfolio (tomorrow), a visiting scholar whom I really need to impress since I'm doing a dissertation revolving around antisemitism and he is an authority on the subject (Tuesday), and the booksale for the student organization of which I am co-president (Tuesday through Thursday). Also two doctor's appointments (including one with a psychiatrist where I can hopefully get something prescribed to will help with the anxiety, since the regular strategies seem to be doing fuck-all), and a couple of other minor things, in addition to my regular schedule. Also I promised my Gen Ed Lit students I would have their papers graded and back to them tomorrow (since I try never to take more than 2 weeks to get papers back).

...I'm fairly sure this week will make me die a little inside with every day that passes. Oh well, maybe I can catch a break on Friday at some point. And hopefully next weekend, in spite of preparation for the ORAL part of my comps exam, I will be able to actually enjoy a proper weekend for the first time in like forever.

Anyway, as I put the final touches on my comps portfolio (HALLELUJAH), have some random videos!

A new ad for Quizno's which [livejournal.com profile] lordtravis and I saw the other day in Chicago, and laughed our asses off at:


An ad for hotels.com which I know is really old but I still giggle every time it comes on:


And not a commercial, but along the same lines as the Quizno's ad (because it's hilarious and a little sexy):


And one final MadTV video that is ancient but which I still kinda love:

Woomba (http://www.nbc.com/Saturday_Night_Live/video/clips/woomba/229062/) will forever be the king (or should I say... queen??? Or I guess at the very least the strapping stable boy) of commercial parodies.
