Oh, you know, just lounging the day away in Telluride, CO in a huge cabin (I have a sauna shower and a jacuzzi tub), piecing together the beginnings of my first big academic undertaking while watching “Brideshead Revisited.” Maybe, in a few hours, I’ll take a break and watch the blizzard outside with a cup of hot chocolate and a gas log fire.
Commence jealousy whenever you see fit.
Day Four
Because I missed yesterday. Whoops.
WHAT YOU IMAGINE PARADISE TO BE LIKE.
I hope that paradise is a little like Paris, France: urban with loads of history, artistic with tons of romance, lots of people, a beautiful language, great food, public transportation, and somehow I seem to know my way around, know how to communicate with natives, and feel totally inspired and at ease there. Also, my friends would all be there and gross public displays of affection would be totally outlawed.
If you really want to go see Lady Gaga you should find yourself a sugar daddy that will buy you some really expensive tickets. You see Joe, you have to give something up to get something in return. So go put yourself out there for some tickets.
Oh, Robbert.I think having the subject ‘blood in dining hall’ is a little much for an email about glasses and dishes breaking…. but who am I to say?
