"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I had never read the sonnets all in one fell swoop - I've read many of them piecemeal. I know that the sonnets were most likely arranged by the editor, but the fact that there is a narrative arc is cool!

Exactly. In fact, it makes a great novel in my head - the combination of historical and social and biographical context and the sonnets. Young writer starts off seeking patronage and rather cynically sucking up to his patron. Then starts to obsess and fall in love with this beautiful young man. Eventually grows disillusioned, but never entirely free of his obsession. Falls into a dark, self-destructive intensely sexual relationship with a woman. Tim Minear should direct it. Very noir.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I need to go to the library this afternoon, but I forgot to bring my books to work, so now I'm home (YAY SUMMER FRIDAYS) and I really really don't want to go back out again. Mpf.

Does your library website have online renewals? If not, they might be able to renew over the phone.

Yeah, I already renewed once online. The thing is, I really want new books! They're open til 6, so I've got some time to recharge. Anyway, the pastries I had for "lunch" aren't quite cutting it, so getting food will be another incentive to go back outside....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

On an open field at Stanford University in 1971, several hundred students convened to undulate and impersonate molecules undergoing protein synthesis by a ribosome.

Just maybe the most wonderful thing I've ever seen on Google Video.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Hmm... seeing your tush is not MY worst nightmare...

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Trudy! Do you still need a pimiento cheese recipe?
