upon the intricacies of soap
So! This week i'm going to BOTH take sailing lessons & collect invertebrates! i hung out with Zach Thursday, and according to him (biology grad student that he is) marine invertebrates of the Pacific Northwest are the best anywhere, and i absolutely must see some clams and oysters and nudibranches (sp??) and so forth. i couldn't agree more. At work, i get a discount on sailing lessons, to the point that it's actually affordable. The prices without the discount (and on a weekend and with an ASA testing) run around $300, which would never happen, but i really don't need the ASA stamp of approval right now, nor do i have that much to do on say, Tuesdays. So, AWESOME.
i've hung out with Rebekah O a few times this week, which is absolutely wonderful. We went on the most adorable biking tour of Bellingham (on Tuesday? i think?), which ended with me buying more books (of course) and with plans to go out for ice cream again soon. We watched this old German movie, Three Penney Opera, last night, which pretty much confused us both but is a standard of early musicals. Apparently. There was this one line... in a completely random song about the glories of being a soldier... sometimes it rains some/but then we maim some... that i irritably can't get out of my head. i mean, really? (i'll go wherever you go even if there's no receipt paper) Weird stuff, yo. i think we both decided that 1/3 of the movie wasn't necessary, and that the songs were random at best... but there is an interesting plot for awhile that makes it worth it.
The drama's still going on with the girls, and we're all going out again tonight. i've avoided going out most of this week, because that's pretty much all we did last week, but tonight should be good. My favorite thing thus far, from all the drama is when last week Kelee's 2 ex-es dropped in on her and she didn't want to talk to them, she decided to go shopping with them. At an adult store.
And who doesn't want Teenage Polish Chickens? Really?
mmmmmmmm, live oysters with tabasco sauce! ¶ 16:51
