Not Jealousy

Of the seven deadly sins, only envy is no fun at all. Sloth may not seem much fun, nor anger either, but giving way to deep laziness has its pleasures and the expression of anger entails a release that is not without its small delights. In recompense, envy may be the subtlest--perhaps I should say the most insidious--of the seven deadly sins. Surely it is the one that people are least likely to want to own up to, for to do so is to admit that one is probably ungenerous, mean, small-hearted. It may also be the most endemic.

-Joseph Epstein

not a very witty title.

so this week has been a reunion extravaganza...

friday i saw rete. and saturday. and i hadn't seen him in over a year, so that was cool...sunday and monday we worked a lot, and tuesday i saw amelia. which was heartbreaking, which i should have anticipated. wednesday i saw dante which was wonderful as always, and then after recording i went to harvard and saw nathalie (who i met in france with mer), which was also awesome. today i was supposed to go out to breakfast with holly, but i was too tired and anticipating the 8 hours of recording was far too daunting...

really, it's been an ok week though very far from relaxing, and i am very glad to be going home to be with people who do not have complicated sorts of relationships with me, and i am REALLY looking forward to not thinking about people for whom i have a very complicated sort of love...

i wish this week would last a little longer so i could spend more time at home with the kitties and the piano and mama and papa and tor. but you can't have everything, and hopefully the cd will make up for the amounts of hard work we've done during our only break all semester.

missing everyone.

this is so odd

i hurt. all over. and i need hugs. my throat is evil because of just the 5 hours of singing, so god knows what it'll be like after 10 hours tomorrow...


sigh. my criteria are proving true. this is probably not the best plan ever.

LAST PERSON brought to you by Bzoink - Fill it out!

very emo day

women suck.


papers for anthro are evil (and apparently very bad).


and if it blizzards tomorrow i will not get to boston, or if i do the driving will be extremely stressful (though i won't be driving, obviously)...



so. my brain is joining my stomach and my back in their conversion to the republican party (not on purpose, it's just getting sucked in). and possibly my throat too...which is great considering we're going to be singing 4-12 hours a day this whole week.

hey!

i know what's happening...

my stomach has decided to join the republican party and is therefore no longer comfortable living in the extremely liberal environment of me. and guess what? i feel that my back may soon be joining in this conversion. grr.

also, there's nothing like writing a poem in the style of the poet you're writing an analytical paper about instead of actually writing said paper. especially when you can use the words "sexual encounter", "insane" and "smarmy" in that paper. especially when you probably shouldn't but you do anyway because it is 1 in the morning.



*edit*
wow, obviously i need to stop with the drugs. hehe.

frosh, stomachs, and no more reiko

tragic.
