So it seems that once again, the Reader has rejected me. Perhaps I'll have to start my own literary magazine, or else try to find somewhere else that will properly appreciate my writing. As pretentious as it sounds, that's how I feel. Because I worked damn hard on all of my submissions, and frequently get positive feedback on them, so WHY THE HELL CAN'T I GET STUFF PUBLISHED?!?!
Oh, and my birthday was awesome. We went to Tabella (I think that's how you spell it), a fancy tapas restaurant in Amherst. SO GOOD. We had olives, and bread, and a tomato bisque, and calimari, and this duck thing, and chicken, and chickpea fries, and oh dear, what's it called, that cheesey rice stuff. AND THEN DESSERT. Creme brulee, chocolate cake, and some icecream cake. That was all small dishes, split between 7 people, mind you. AND I GOT MY FIRST (legal) drink-- a mango margarita. How awesome is that?
And so now I'm putting off doing a little bit of work before heading off to Adolescent Development, waiting to see if I can possibly put myself into the best mood possible because I have MAJOR work to do. I think the nice sunny weather's improving my mood though. :) I wish it were warm enough to really work outside though.
In other news, my iPod is busted. Needs to fix it, yes.
Oh, and I just may be doing a dance about hysteria for the Lacanfrence. More on my continuing love affair with Jacques Lacan later.
