Found in Nippur, Babylonia, these bowls contain some of the most lengthy and explicit references to Lilith up to this point. Of the 40 bowls which were excavated, 26 explicitly mentioned the figure of Lilith, and at least three of these bowls contain sketches of Lilith as their central ( Read more... )

It is officially sad when you come home, clean up. And change into your WoWing clothes. Then settle a mug of tea for when you get thirsty and can't leave your character untended in a patrolled area. I knew it was bad when I used a hairpin to keep my hair from moving out from under the headset ( Read more... )

Today is O Fortuna day. I love that song, in fact I loved it so much it was the accompaniment to that horrible project Susanna and I had in Dawson's class (You still have a copy?) Agreed upon in the cesspools of the internet I visit, Carmina Burana really only has one song of note - The Carmina Burana song = O Fortuna. It has that epic dramatic ( Read more... )

Did I mention that Pai got better? I think the culmination of my time spent in Pai was getting a ride home from a traffic cop. No its not what it sounds like, I was offered a ride (out of the blue) while walking to the outskirt of town, but had to walk back and on the way was traffic cop headquarters. Yes.

We watched the ( Read more... )

You're doing it wrong!

I got myself a new toy this weekend, and on sale! She's very cute. Her name is Franz Phillipe. If you ask nicely, I may let you see her -- as long as you don't compare her to an ipod. Silly little thing came with a USB charger, so she's awaiting a case and a sensible source of power. In the meantime, shes making nice with my ( Read more... )

First things first, Happy Birthday Sarah! I wish you the best on this, the 21st anniversary of escaping from your mother's womb!

Three cheers for bizarre sleep schedule! I moved a chair, then promptly forgot about it in the dark, only to encounter it in a calamitous fashion 15 minutes later when I jumped off my bed. There was much writhing and cursing of the gods.

I now have 10 hours before my midterm and all I can do is think about the book Robyn confiscated from me...
Oh how ( Read more... )

Just in, on Room Report!

Both Sarah and I recently changed our desktops, and generally, we have very different taste in wallpaper decisions.
Not this time. Apparently we both separately decided to have happy desktop images so that when we came home, we could look at them and feel some small measure of joy. I chose horrified sea monster, Sarah chose ( Read more... )
