It is really cold outside with the windchill. I'm waffling between love for it and discomfort. At any rate I'm very impressed with it. In fact I'd prefer global cooling to global warming.

Literary Journalism is done.
One down, three to go.

Tired but good day. Didn't do much but hung out with some first year geeks who were awesome albeit even more geeky than me, and life was good. Had to get up too early, hauled a bunch of hay around, saw tobin who was positively glowing. I think he had an amazing summer working here. Saw a program called ical from molly, practiced kata, hugged ( Read more... )

OMG GREAT BIG SEA CONCERTS ROCK! Brilliant quotes: Hey Mr. Alan-man show me your banana, I want to go to Smith college. I'll say anything. I..am...a....lesbian.

Aikido was fucking amazing tonight. I love Julia-sensei. She likes to play with it, just like me and she also said the same thing I think about aikido. We know how to hurt people, but we don't want to, so we choose a gentler way. Then I got to practice with a hakama and it was so cool. You could feel that it was just enough force to make you ( Read more... )

So I experienced Geek discrimination for the first time in class today. I was trying to explain how an idea about Tibetan monks traveling amazing distances is just like the European myth of seven league boots. This professor saw me boffing, and so his response to my, "It's like those seven league boots" was "Is that some Dungeons and Dragons thing ( Read more... )
