Bullet Proof

Aug 15, 2003 22:20



Today, I parted my hair on the opposite side from usual. I like it; I think I'm going to see if I can get it to stay on this side for the next few days.





This is what happens when my camera is on the wrong setting and I don't realize it until too late.

septemberninth brought me a really cute dress from her favorite thrift store in Muskogee. I love it!!





I also ended up getting my books today, thank God. One less thing to worry about.



In no particular order, I've got...
  • God In Search of Man: A Philosophy of Judaism
  • The Cambridge Companion to Christian Ethics
  • The Way of Zen
  • The Analects of Confucious
  • The Propensity of Things: Toward a History of Efficacy in China
  • Dao De Jing
  • Lessons in Modern Herbrew I
  • Everyman's Talmud
  • Tanakh: The Holy Scriptures (the Torah, Nevi'im, and Kethuvim)
  • Back to the Sources: Reading the Classic Jewish Texts
  • Sephardi Religious Responses to Modernity (written by the prof; this is the first thing I'm reading)
  • The First and Second Jewish Catalogs

    It irks me that I wouldn't have had to buy half of the above if I could have just resisted the allure of buybacks.



    I went to Ponca for a few days this week. I tried to take some pictures around town that expressed how I saw the city, and this is some of what I came up with:











    Yeah, that's right. No buildings, no famous sites, no people. Some dying flowers and a ripped-off birdswing. That's Ponca.

    On a related note, I got totally hit on while taking some of those pictures. The line used on me was classic small-town Oklahoma: "HEY!! WANNA FUCK?!!!" I've always wanted to reply yes, then act shocked if they advanced and say "Oh... You meant with you???"

    Ponca does do weird things to people, though. Check out what it did to besesco's head:







    MOHAWKS RULE!! Sadly, Norman shocked it out of him, and he's back to being... well, 'hawk-less.

    We went to the international grocery store last week. To be very Narnian, septemberninth, gynocam, besesco, and I tried Turkish Delights. They were friggin gross. Which leads me to believe even more than before that Edward was a fucktard. Being tricked into turning evil because of gross candy and a sleighride...fucker.

    Anyway, in between Ben shitting his pants over the giant glass pipes, we also bought...



    Spring roll wrappers!!! Yay!!



    Ronny's "Knock You Out the Door" seasoning... Bizarre, but good from all accounts.



    The thing we most wanted: Thai Tea mix. Sarah and I freaked out when we actually found it... But when we got home and tried it, we were sorely disappointed. It was hella gross. *tear*

    Sarah, Amy, Stephanie, and I went to the Rilo Kiley show in Denton on the 8th. It was really, really great. I cried during "A Better Son or Daughter", "Paint's Peeling", and "The Good That Won't Come Out". Because hell. If I can cry at Con Air, I can sure as fuck cry at Rilo.



    The bar.



    Some chick was wearing wack shoes!



    I accidentally put my cigarette out on this chick's ass... Luckily, she didn't notice.

    ps. JENNY IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!



















    I cannot believe I was so close to Michael the Goth/Joey the Rat/Pinsky...









    Finally:
    Holy Christ, this shit (1, 2) is unbelievably funny... I'd forgotten that some people don't understand sarcasm.

    ps. I LOVE MY NEW ICON!
