I am reading Paradise Lost. It's incredible. There are so many lines and ideas in it that have echoed throughout Western culture. Milton's interpretation of the Bible is the one that has stuck in the popular imagination- Lucifer as the rebellious angel banished to Hell, who tempted Eve as vengeance against God and the Messiah; the war in Heaven; the concept of "true" love...

Well at least you weren't being carried down the street between two guys, like the chick I saw Monday night. Assuming that wasn't you.
I want work to just stop for like a month. We are moving into a new space, the buildout of which is not quite finished yet, and I am part of the team coordinating it all. So boring, yet so stressful.
I think my job is making me a very boring person. I feel like I never have an original thought. I wish I were...

I don't know if you care that much, but that GI bill in the senate. It's almost a sure thing at this point, despite bush saying he'll veto it.

I saw that documentary about the problem with fistulas in Ethiopia. I wondered why so many in Ethiopia and in good time it was explained that the women don't grow as much as they should because they do all the work and don't eat enough protein. Heartbreaking stuff.
Everything's pretty squirddly but my best friend is moving here in a month and my other best friend will be coming through town in two months and my other best friend (I have 4) is moving back from Poland in June. So it won't be squirddly for long.

An incomplete list of things I used to like, but now hate:
- Boys with eyeliner
- Prodigy
- Wearing baggy pants
- Writing in a diary
- Chat rooms
- Jager
I'm sure there are many more but that's what I can think of now.
I went through a LOT of phases.

Hey, everybody was a raver once. Except me. No, never collected Bukem nth-gen mixtapes.

fair enough. its weird i used to hate jager but now i love it 
I like drinking. I do it a lot. Not as much as I could, but probably more than I should. Here are some drinks I like. This list does not include beer as that is a given.
Champagne
Gin and tonic, gin rickey, gin gimlet
Jameson (esp. Jameson and soda with a lemon wedge- we call this a cock block or the usual)
Irish coffee...

I love beer . . . usually Guinness . . . from a tap, not the fucking bottled stuff. Also Bass Ale, and Corona with lime.
I don't care for mixed drinks. I drink Meyers Rum & Tonic, with a piece of lime. Yum! Gin & tonic is good in warm weather, if I'm out of Meyers. I drink way too much red wine . . . three or four glasses just about every night. I really should cut that back a little. Oh yeah . . . and tequila shots when I want to be bad!
We'd be good friends, you and I!

for some reason after 10 years of school, 45k in student loans I thought I should actually do something that I went to school for and yes I went to school apparently to become a glorified gardener. I smoked too much pot and clearly was not thinking! HA!
EVER SO CRANKY.

I think you could actually keep a drinking log with success! Like a diary of trying different exotic beers, etc. People will read that. Look at the response to the KFC piece. I think most people drink more often than fried chicken. You could do one of beers, imports, vodkas, etc! Endless.
Ahh, I never even heard the term "ruched" before i started at my job. I learn a lot of interesting fashion things. BUT. What I am talking about it actually sort of a PUCKERED elastic band, and it's kind of big. It's crazy, it has a cleavage bearing v cut, rolls into this thick puckered band and then flows. It's very flattering for ladies like me who have gargantuan hips.
Ruching is good! I think I call them "preganancy" shirts. I still like them if they are made well. I kind of like this whole bohemian throw back trend happening right now.

I hope you're eating those nasturtiums.
I just spent about an hour working on my back yard. I spent an hour or so at it yesterday too. The guy who lived here before was not concerned with the state of it, so it's pretty out of control. Overgrown with mugwort, foxtails, clover, grass, nasturtiums, and dandelions. There are also a number of strange, rotting wooden items, plastic things, and other unidentifiable...

I've got my yard to work on today. Weeds, weeds and weeds. It will not be fun.
Thank you for bringing some intelligent commentary to the CE boards recently, it seems like it has been a long time.
Personally, I didn't find anything you said aggressive or anything like it. Questions are questions, and yours were good ones.

A lot of people posted really sweet things on my set. I don't know if I'm just being all low self esteem emo or what but a number of the comments struck me as thoughtful, funny, or just plain flattering. So thanks, commenters.
