* today i was in the sun for less than two hours and am still disproportionately red. this is very disheartening.
* apparently, sitting on a bench outside reading papers on drosophila attracts sketchy guys from kenya who decide they want to be your friend. please tell me that it was his bad grasp on english that inspired the comment "can you make my summer baby?" in an e-mail.
* i was able to successfully identify the sketchy guy this time, although the avoiding him is still a bit of an issue. i just can't be mean.
* it's so nice to be able to walk around downtown and enjoy free jazz.
* rap does not qualify as jazz.
* bookstores inspire me to read. i don't actually buy many books, i just walk around with a pad of paper and a pen and write down the name of books that i want to read. today, this led to a search for an abandoned writing utensil in a barnes and noble. surprisingly, i was successful.
* tomorrow i am going to climb a mountain. oh boy.
