I'm "classicaly beautiful"

Got a hair-cut. Shorter than I thought it was going to be, but I like it.

On that note---hilarious outcome? I fell asleep on a couch yesterday, and got slightly strange bedhead...and, no joke, my hair looked like Audrey Hepburn's. Like, not the swept-up look, but when it was short.

No, seriously. Molly agreed with me.

I'd like, for a moment, you to try to imagine something stranger-looking. No? Cool.

See you all soon,

Back in Columbus

Gentle Readers,

I'm back in Columbus for a chunk of the weekend---yes, it's Send-off, though my being off campus is something of a coincidence.

Rehearsals for "Of Mice and Men" have started in earnest--have done a read of the script, and have blocked the first scene. Now that we've finally got a complete cast, I can finally emotionally commit to the production--I get more and more excited about it as each part falls into place.

Gambier has been beautiful: sun, light, green grass, the works. I've been running again (in fact, I'm just waiting now for my breakfast to settle so that I can take my first German Village run. I've got a nice course through Ukrainian Village back home--but I think this will measure up.

Other things: my band is playing a Ren-faire later in the summer! This basically amuses me to no end. I think it will be a good time, and will be a chance to wear a floppy hat, talk in an accent, and get paid a fairly large sum of money while playing tunes.

Alright---I'm going to go out, before I lose the cool of the morning.

Oh lord my swords out/Jesus just avert your eyes

Just like Columbus/He get the bloodlust
Just like Columbus/He get murderous on purpose

You got me hurtin'/You got me pullin' curtains
You suckin' chili dogs while I go on my crazed berserkin'

Just one Girlie at the Tourney...

Who hasn't, really?

"This is a contemplation of anime and game characters acting as pirates. This was inspired by the song "Shiver My Timbers" from Muppet Treasure Island. You might say that this is a tribute to both the anime fans who longed to see some of their favorite characters as pirates, as well as a tribute to the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean movie "At Worlds End." Anyway, I hope you enjoy it."

Annonuncment

I am incredibly proud----my little sister has just decided that she will be attending Bard College for her undergrad in the fall!


She rocks, hard-core.


That's all for now---more later.

That's the way it is in Oklahoma (Stop thinking love is blind)

New musical obsession:

the Dresden Dolls.

I'm really into the whole duo thing. Especially when they mix non-standard rock music.

Ya'll should check it out. Anton and Erin, you two especially I think would like them (if for different reasons).


(Also they reference Homer/Aristophanes Lysistrata/Iliad in a song! And make it rhyme!)
For your viewing pleasure---three great songs:
