Saturday Peter and I went shopping with his lovely discounts. We showed up wearing the same outfit. Creepy. Many clothes were purchased and I bought two books upon his recommendation. Of one book by amazingman Dawkins:
"Imagine, with John Lennon, a world with no religion. Imagine no suicide bombers, no 9/11, no 7/7, no Crusades, no witch-hunts, no Gunpowder Plot, no Indian partition, No Israeli/Palestinian wars, no Serb/croat/Muslim massacres, no persecution of Jews as 'Christ-Killers', no Northern Ireland 'troubles', no 'honour kllings', no shiny-suited bouffant-haired televangelists fleecing gullible people of their money ('God wants you to give teill it hurts'). Imagine no Taliban to blow up ancient statutes, no public beheadings of blasphemers, no flogging of female skin for the crime of showing an inch of it. Incidentally, my colleague Desmond Morris informs me that John Lennon's magnificent song is sometimes performed in America with the phrase 'and no religion too' expurgated. One version even has the effrontery to change it to 'and one religion too'. "
Have been reading said book instead of prepping for oral presentation and writing com theory paper (both due monday.. and i have many other things due this week). I concur, but then we wouldn't be living in America, now would we? Though I guess not klling Native Americans is better than us all living here. But I like my country.
I did attempt some work and I fell asleep on my desk reading book for aforementioned paper.
Last night I partied until four in the morning and in B.U. trend I A) was neglected by sole shaggy hair boy and B) ended my night fighting a democrat-socialist and C) and paying for lack of sleep right now.
The toilet overflowed this morning, and I had to deal with it.
Some conclusions:
Boys in peacoats are hot.
I like architecture a lot. But not blobitecture. What the fuck.
I do not want to go home.
I spend too much money. Did I really need to buy 10 pairs of socks?
I never stick to the plan.
