Kat, my dad did his thesis on Chaucer. Loves the stuff. I like it, but love it? Not so much. I did memorize the Prologue in Middle English for one of my undergrad classes, though, which is useful only so far as it baffles high school students.
Thanks for the offer, Kristin. I need the kind of help that's a high-paying job on the west side. Got any? I'm about to become less picky.
Ummm....Unless I can talk my school into starting a krav class, I got nothin'. Dammit.

I know the first 18 lines of the prologue (as do my students!) and the prologue for chaucer's troilus. Oof. I should go work on my paper.

2 good things about today.
1) my brand new iPod which was Not SO Much with the working all day (grey face, would not reset), snapped to when I plugged it in to the iBook.
2) I just found $95 in my paypal account that I had forgotten to wire to my checking account. RAWK!

Oh, House is going to do something wonderfully awful. And if anyone thinks that's a spoiler, they don't know House.

People keep saying that Sue. And i understand what you mean. But seriously? It's all a mystery.
Seriously, I remember in the beginning having about 50 pages to read for class. And it was taking about 20 minutes to get through a page with having to look up every frickin word. But towards the end, I could almost read it as were normal English.
For some reason, Gawain and the Green Knight was totally incomprehensible to me. I gave up and got a modern translation.

At the grocery store the package of meatless chicken shish kabobs looked enticing, but previous experience with tofu convinces me that chicken-flavored marshmallows are not a dish I'll enjoy.
I bought TGI Friday's spinach dip, but no chips to eat with it.
Vegetable buying went well anyway.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, that goes good on crackers, bread or veggies just fine, too. Or in case of an emergency--eaten with a spoon.
Um...not that I would know about that or anything.

Also, duh, I could learn how to make miso soup, which I love and would totally eat.
1. Heat water
2. Add a Tablespoon or two of miso paste
3. Stir

I know it's not right, but I do it anyway.
I'm Lee and Jilli on this. Sometimes I do reword to avoid using it.
