I'm halfway done this paper on Hesiod's Theogony. It's due tomorrow and I started it this morning- well, ahem, this afternoon- and it needs to be done within the next three hours so I can get up to my standard level of drunken debauchery this evening during (and after) the OC.

Here's the plan!

Stay in Victoria over the summer. Learn Italian. Try to...

I will learn Italian by having Fiore Dei Liberi's Flos Duellatorum read to me by floppy-hatted bare-chested Venecian cabana-boys, and from my perch atop the mizzenmast of the Black Night's Call I will sing passages from Machiavelli to the melody of Janet Jackson's Nasty Boys.

Well, well. The darling cklarock just bought me back on here. Apparently I can resist anything, as long as it doesn't pertain to temptation in the least.

Being addicted to the internet is better than being addicted to heroin.. right?

My account expires tomorrow. Or maybe the day after.

I've always hated goodbyes. They leave such a despicable taste in the mouth, don't you think? A mixture of sweat and lime and black licorice. I want them clean-cut, but I always drag them out.

the simple pain of living,
with goodbyes on our lips


Take care, sweethearts. It's been a slice. You can find me...

Lately, I've felt so irritable. I'm full of potential energy and none of it is positive.

It's seeing a plate of glass and wanting to put your fist through it.

It's hearing idle gossip and wanting to pour hot tea across laps.

It's walking down streets and wanting to jump on cars and smash door windows.

It's seeing you with your long-ish hair and scruffy...

'that's when i reach for my revolver.'

whoops, fuck that, far too early in the morning to run around quoting famous Reichmarshals.

so let's just attribute that one sonic youth or misson of burma, one of those two used that line to title a song.

I think I've been there. You feel like snarling at anyone who'd try to embrace you, even though deep down it's exactly what you need. What a witch baby way to feel.

And oh, those posters. Campus Security said they were going to post about 'the incident' but I didn't realize by that they meant up in bold yellow, all over the university. It's a bit jarring, but I guess it means they're taking it seriously, which is good.

You're a doll. I hope life stops feeling like nails on panes of glass soon.

I'm so tired that I think I'm going to die.

And I think I broke my iPod. It's frozen. Well, I think that a friend of mine fucked it up yesterday, actually. Luckily, I've got a team of monkeys working around the clock on this sort of thing, but unluckily, they're preoccupied at the moment with building aqueducts inside my brain.

Oh, also, I made...

Yes, recent growth in the monkey-business sector is unprecedented.

They don't work for peanuts but they get great banana-mileage. ooo aaa

I was skyrocketed into nerdliness yesterday afternoon: I involuntarily squealed with delight as I stumbled upon a book of 501 fully-conjugated Latin verbs.

.. And I was going to write more here, but it would appear that a huge fucking bug has found its way into my room and is flying around the light. It's battle time. Let's dance!

i hear that youre building your...

Oh, fuck it. I may as well stay on at least until my account expires in a week or so. Like I have the willpower required to stay away- especially if I've still got the site bookmarked. It's too easy to click, and so.. hard.. not.. to click..

I've been working, schooling, drinking beer in the park high school style, generally enjoying the tentative onset...

Whatever you choose, I think you should grow a beard over the summer.

Not many beaches in C-town, sadly. I might be here for the summer... maybe not. It all depends on what happens in the next month. Ha ha.

I think it's probably best that I leave.

It's been good, kids- take care!

Vinegar in every wound. Technicolour as far as the eye can see. Sunshine heartbeats on blooming streets. Pineapple sunsets over urban dreamscapes. Broken bottles underfoot, corners pressing out in all directions, capabilities spanning past the horizon. The flicker of eyelashes and grass in our hair. Trappings of memory are being crushed, one by one, and onward- upward!- I go. This is rocket love, baby.

Somewhere...

I wonder if it's sketchy for me to be drinking chocolate soy milk that expired on February first. It was unopened before today and I'm not dead yet. Lookin' good so far.

The ornamental cherry trees are beginning to bloom. With the sole exception of autumn, I seem to love only the transition phases between seasons rather than the season itself. Fall, however, is without...

Yeah, it was pretty rad. From the evilte:

"We're doin' it again folks - it's Black History Month and the Urban Wine Network is putting on another wine tasting party for Black folks (and other folks) who love good wine, good food and good company.

"This time we'll be tasting wines made from the one of the most important of the Black Grape varieties - Zinfandel! Extra points to those who bring a Zin from a Black-owned winery."

As it happened, this tasting was at the house of a buddy of mine, so I got invited.

When I first arrived, I thought it would be pretty pretentious, but it turned out to be a lot of fun. I saw a guy that I knew from Kansas that I hadn't seen for years, and several of his friends from KS were there as well. They happened to be friends of the roomate of my buddy, and therefore also got the default invitation.

The winna? Coyote Creek Vineyard Paso Robles Zinfandel (14.2%); 1999: Med.color; bit alcoholic light blackberry/ jammy bit earthy/chalky nose. My contribution wasn't as good, but frankly, as it didn't get opened until 11:30, nobody cared.
meeks:
oh you'll be fine.... expiry dates are merely suggestions, they aren't the law....

or at least that's what I thought

uh oh....
