I can drink the shit out of ice coffee.
My class thinks that I'm crazy for having them read Geek Love, but since we spent the last week talking about fashion, plastic surgery and the modern freakshow, I think they at least appreciate the connections. Needless to say though, I think that I've shattered some freshman innocence... (evil laugh now!)
I have been so lethargic...

One hour 'til The Bee arrives. I have lots of canned sugery fruit goodies, like "mango shells in extra thick syrup" for her to pick at with her antennae. Now we just need cheese and wine (which I have a closet full of that I've been saving for just such an occasion) and the giggling will ensue.
Wed I leave for Cleveland for apartment hunting....

Time for the third and final candy list: the BAD candy list, and I don't mean bad good, I don't mean bad naughty, I mean such oddities and horrors of candy creation they belong in a confectionary freak show; Candy invented by sadists...

Hurricane Isobel is heading to some other poor suckers house rather than mine.
I can't believe that Sept is half over. It'll soon be time for me to start packing, fly up to cleveland to go apartment hunting. Pack up the old station wagon (i wish i had a S.W.) and leave Miami. I'm already thinking about what...

yaaar,
I love my new engineer overalls. I'm going to wear them everyday until they are soooper soft. I've never owned overalls before. I always thought I would look like a hay seed, but train engineer overalls: CHA! now I just look like an post-industrial, dust-bowl cog. And, there is a zipper pocket in fron that is made, I think, especially for holding candy.

I ate a pint of coney island waffle cone ice cream today. I was going to save some for my roommate, but I just couldn't. I was slavering, wild eyes, shoveling ice cream into my mouth...

i used to have a hammock on my roof. there was a huge tree that grew over the house, and i tied the hammock to it. i could look into the skylight. i'd read up there sometimes, but there were too many ants to sleep.

holy canoodlin' crap. current crush: the OED. oh man, that wins. a winner is you. i have the most ridiculous, slavering crush on that volume-inous lil' lady myself. also, we share a love of that talented and gorgeous Mei! smit-away.

ate me lots of sugar today. more than I've had in months. seriously. But I needed it. I'm one of those who, when depressed, makes a beeline for the ice cream, buys indiscriminate junk (is that term redundant?), and crawls into bed or a really bad book (like Aliens vs. predator, which I read in about two hours yesterday).

tremont eh? i was just there last night, during the big eastcoast blackout. we went to my friend's house (member robinbanks !) and laid out on the lawn, looking for meteors. we just saw one, but it was a good one.
and i don't think that area has changed *too* much in the last 4 years.
i tend to avoid the eastside, wouldn't mind living near china town though - asian plaza is the place to get the best tofu ever.
>I stole a car in my sleep and crashed it into a porn store...
hahaha.. i don't want to even try and analyze that one!

Hello fellow insignificant skidmarks on god's underwear.
did you ever watch banana splits? do you remember the gulliver's travel cartoon? do you remember that one lillipution that always said, no matter what the situation, "We're all doomed. We'll never make it"
Well, that's me. aargh. I'm a train wreck today. all empty husk and ponderous sigh. If I had t.v. and if I saw an...

sorry about your wrecked day man, had one of those myself. damnitall. Love your opening line by the way. hahah.
Thats cool you collect books. I do as well. I dont have nearly as much as you, but i have two decent sized bookshelves full. Our school library had this giant sale last semester, and the hardcovers were like 50 cents. I got some good stuff. Mostly old philo books and some psych junk. its pretty accurate to call them antiques. I am well liked by the librarian lady, which is a plus, cause she'd set aside the good ones for me.
Hahaha "Fuck me like you hate me." that is pretty fuckered up. What I liked best with the girl I was with for the short time she liked me, was when she'd whisper things to me during foreplay. My god she is so incredible. I miss her all the time. damnitall i wish she liked me again.
anyway. Thats awesome about the Japanese baths. Sounds great.
And hell yes, "The Soup Kitchen" it shall be done. Cribbage boards and a peanut bar. It'd pile in grips of cool old people.
Good luck with your dissertation, I hope its coming along well for you. I'd definately be down to read it, i would imagine its pretty damn good. So what is it on exactly?

word for the day:
dictatrix: a female dictator; a woman who tells people what to do.
and since that probably wasn't sensational enough for you, here are a couple more:
acrotophiliac -- a person who is sexually attracted to the stumps of amputees.

I am torn about going to the world trade protests in Miami. I'd kinda like to. It is important. But that innate thing in me that rebels at any group / mob activity thinks that I'll feel kind of sick doing it.
A funny fact: the first presidential debates are going to be held at the University of Miami, which has the most shallow, apolitical student body in all of the United States. Perfectly apt.
I'm driving to Cleveland on Monday. Back on Saturday. must start collecting books on tape for the trip.
Okay, I must get back to writing about Faulkner and 1930s aviation pulps.
