SUSHI........................................and other adventures.
One morning, the spirits spoke to me, stirring my heart and warming my blood with a ferocious desire. A desire so carnal so visceral that to speak it will surely cause blindness in goats and cabbage. This my friends is the desire to make sushi in one's dorm room for a super bowl party.
It is surprisingly easy to come by the necessary ingredients for sushi production. Rice cooker at Walmart $20, Soy Sauce at Publix 3$, Imitation Crab at Publix 4$, Rice at Kroger 4$, Rice Vinegar at Walmart 2$, Seaweed at Walmart 3$, Avocado at Publix 1$, making your own sushi priceless. Indeed it was a very long day of questing to gain all the necessary things, but in the end it was most defiantly worth the effort. Some days it's a good day to die some days it's a good day to eat sushi.
In other news I've been playing a lot of chess lately. Chess is a contained battlefield, it cultivates the mind the spirit and the soul, and we must always cultivate the soul. Now I know that many of you consider chess nothing more than a game, or at best a battle of wits, but I contend that when played with the proper opponent, chess is a special linking of minds. It is like fencing, an expression of passion, of love, hate, and fear. I've been writing a poem on the subject, perhaps I'll post it soon. But that's probably far too romantic a way to think of chess.
Well I suppose I'll close with what is perhaps the geekiest analogy ever. These days my life has been like a low altitude hyperspace fold, you never know where it'll take you. Perhaps though we are opening the Chamber of Gaf, the door to the beginning and the end. I think though that, in the words of Arthur C. Clark's Dave Bowman, "Something wonderful is going to happen..."
