updates are the ones growing highest on the tree

i don't feel like being funny today, so i think i'll just say some things, all true, which are pertinent and applicable to my life right now.

-the people at the BU physics department have more clout than i, so despite being pseudo-prepared, i don't have to give my presentation till next week. which bums me out cause now i have to wait to wear my

scientific shirt

which will make my theories seem even more important.

-i have a new blue box cutter

-we spent the weekend getting used to the 'kitty gate' so that my bed can be bram-less and we still get cross-ventilation. pole-vaulting is hard.

-i agreed to be in my best friend's wedding next year, enthusiastically even (i can count on one hand the number of times i've worn a dress). the

bridesmaid's dress

will make it appear as though i am pooping flowers, but as dresses go, it's really quite nice. innocuous, even.

-i get to wear my new matchbox bandaids cause sean and kelly's rabbit bit me. last summer bunnybuns and i got to be tight, but i think he forgot.

-after the diaspora of the downstairs neighbors, they left a garbage pile in the driveway of sao paolo proportions. we had to bring it all to the curb (thanks joe) and like magic, it disappeared this morning. even the big rotten couch. off the curb, full of maggots, just like that. garbagemen are gods.

-strawberry cheesecake ice cream in a waffle cone is the best *twitch* lunch ever *twitch*

-after living in the boston area for 2 years now, i finally got to see real live people smoking crack. chau chow city is the place to be.
