In light we see; in light we are seen.


meet butter and turtle, my new rat family

I'm leaving the Iron Tomato to work for Murray's Cheese. Other news lately is my senior project somehow is going to have to do with jazz/gender (in simplest terms), I'm going to be trading cheese for fresh eggs, we have a virgin mary statue in our apartment, it's the year 5770 and that's pretty neat, and there's been lots of good music at Purchase these days.

I'm into 'getting into' authors who everyone already likes lately. I've read a bit of Charles Bukowski's short stories in Tales of Ordinary Madness. I've started my first Tom Robbins book, Another Roadside Attraction, and I like the way he is very specific about atmospheric details relating to food and other fringe aspects to the plot (maybe, maybe not). My friend told me last night that he has eaten roasted kangaroo with a blueberry glaze. That might be crucial to a plot.

Melissa, Aiyana, and I make popcorn nearly every day and we've made a list of good "toppins", some of which include soy sauce, hot sauce, and cayenne + lime.

I hated my professor Jason Pine this week but we've since reconciled and now we're on ok terms.

This week:

THE SHMINISTIM TOUR. Israeli women speak their conscience:

"The Shministim Tour is a series of conversations between two young Israeli women who went to jail for following their consciences and Americans from all communities and political backgrounds. Maya Wind and Netta Mishlywill speak at universities, synagogues, and community centers about their personal journeys from high school to military prison; a path shared by dozens of young Shministim but wholly unique in each case. They will engage students, activists, supporters, and critics on both coasts and in between.

Sarah Lawrence College

Date: Thursday, October 1

Time: 7:30 PM

Location: Titsworth Lecture Hall"


which'll allow me to be back in time for cheese club at 10pm here at purchase.
