So many random people on facebox o_O random people! Some I'm like 'cool!' Others I'm like ...'Why are you adding me? o_O'

In other news, I toured around some apartment complexes today and now need to think a bit. One comes with cable and internets and is significantly cheaper than places around it, but doesn't have laundry. The apartments come with w/d hookups though, and they say they rent appliances. So I could rent or try and find a cheap set. the other place was nicer (and is where Claire lives), but about the same price without the cable and internets. Howeverr they have tile floor in some of the apartments... I don't know if 20$/month is really worth it, though. And they both have reduced rates atm, and units available. i will think about it, and decide by the end of the month.

I started reading King Solomon's Mines today, which has been resting on my shelf for years now... Also i ordered the rest of the fall of Ile-Rien trilogy off Amazon, with overnight shipping since otherwise they would come while I was away and I'm going to need travel books. i also bought a couple of books at Half Price books - a couple of reference history things for the 18th century, and also a cheao hardcover of The Name of the Rose, which I really ought to have rad by this point but haven't :V

I then stopped at Kroger, and bought some foods - organic broccoli soup, some organic mini carrots, and some organic cinnamon applesauce. Sense a theme here? I am thinking about trying to have a new diet - i call it the Anti-catholic diet, where I mostly have vegetarian foods, organic if I can manage it, and then indulge in delicious meats on Fridays :V

After that wandering around in the Texas heat, I went swimming to cool down. Yay pool!

Now it is time for LotA and dinner!

I used myspace to get in touch with an old friend of a friend the other day and ever since I've been getting daily spams from girls with names like Ivanka and Svetlana whose profiles are all mysteriously similar and point to the same cam site!

PS said old friend is not a porn star (although she'd probably jump to the top of the charts if she became one)...

I like both King Solomon's Mines and The Name of the Rose. Good stuff!

I find the biggest obstacle to eating organic is price. It hurts me in my cheap little soul to pay twice as much for a banana that tastes the same but is 1/2 the size.

I've never noticed organic bananas being substantially smaller than non-organic.

Well the ones I see tend toward the smaller side.

Even if they were almost the same size, someone shopping at price chopper and paying 15% of her net earnings to student loans cannot afford to pay twice the price for effectively the same banana!

Hey, I'm not saying anyone should or shouldn't buy organic food - obviously everyone makes their own decision based on what their budget allows. I'm just saying that, having bought many organic bananas in the past couple of years, I have never noticed them being smaller :o

Sorry, didn't mean to jump down your throat...

As a completely non-partial observer, I would recommend moving to where Claire lives. She seems nice.

Hee.

Wanna play with Samson sometime this weekend?

Hee! It is mostly a matter of monies. basically, having cable and the internet will cost me about 60$ a month. I can live without cable - that's not *really* an issue. I will come down to the laundry rental issue, and whether I'd rather pay like 30$/month to rent appliances (more than I'd spend on laundry per month normally, but more convenient), whether I could find a cheap washer and dryer elsewhere. Oh and whether I want to play an extra 20$ a month for tile floor and a breakfast bar :V

And yes, I want to play with Samson!
