Currently reading a catalogue with items for sale from Sure Marine in Seattle. hmmmmm,

It's a book by this guy:

I should be done with it by tomorrow. If so, my next book is
Neil Smith's New Urban Frontier: Gentrification and the Revanchist City
After that, who knows.
I need to start writing soon. Paper(s) are due in a month and I need to read books.

Roubini, N. & Mihm, S. 2010. Crisis economics: a crash course in the future of finance.

I have no idea why I typed that out in APA. Habit.
It's a book by "Dr. DOOM"

Really enjoying this book. It's a biography of a Chinese woman (concubine) in Vancouver during the Depression. The story also involves Nanaimo. I'm apparently a sucker for social history, biographies, fiction books pertaining to places I've lived in.

Denise Chong, The Concubine's Children. Another history book.

Welcome home Russ! (Forgot to mention this earlier)

Lunch was chili. The department was raising money for MS of Canada.
Dinner was a cheese and tomato bagel with leftover steamed Brussels sprouts from last night.
Going to bed early tonight. Dead tired.

Beer. With double dark n dirites as chaser. It will help with this.

The bender will come, presumably during the going away party less than a year from now (if I don't mess this up). My life is in full transition mode. It's a weird feeling.

Trying to not think about the future.

I was told that at the end of this undergraduate tunnel is a plane ticket to Europe, yesterday. I obviously didn't accomplish much soon after learning this.

Everyone's attractive in the dark  ;)

She was attractive in the light, back in the day. She looks closer around my age now - she's 4yrs younger - while I apparently became the hot one thanks to long distance running. I'm getting skinnier while everyone else is getting fatter as the years role by. I find this ironic.

So sorry to hear about your friend, Gopher.

I plan on living longer than 37; but I'm only allowed to live until 90 according to my life insurance policy.
A very close friend of mine who lives in Kingston, Ontario told me on our morning text chats that I need to stop being a "martyr" and eat and sleep right. She knows me too well. Better listen to the wife.

Sex only other than that RUN LIKE HELL

She's really not all that attractive anymore; the lifestyle caught up with her in the past two years and she aged rather quickly... kind of sad, really. The party life of hipsters.

A month or so?  Why so long?

Midterms are coming up. She has to write her papers and read the course material. She's one of those who reads everything the night before and still gets an A+.

add in hookers and blow and the way you go  ;D

A cocaine habit to stay awake would make me rather Fassbinder-like.
