[megisnotreal]

I took the highway home instead of the interstate. Although it was pouring for the duration of my journey, it was lovely.

Good call, Meg!  ;D

[primushead]

I get to go see Borat this weekend!  

Meg, back me up with a great Borat quote!

[megisnotreal]

"She must be tight, like a man's anus."

[primushead]

Nice.






"In my country, Barbara means 'to play with' and Bush means...ehh...ladies pubies".

[megisnotreal]

James Joyce! T.S. Eliot!

I've been so bogged down with the technical aspects of literature this semester that I'd totally forgotten how much power and beauty a simple phrase can hold. It's as if some sentences leap off the page and smack you in the face. I absolutely love it. And not just for its aesthetic qualities...

I can't tell you how long I've been waiting to finally get passionate about my English studies again. Reading Joyce (and Eliot's next!) is so inspiring; I want to read and read... and then read some more. I want to lose myself in these works that encompass everything about the human experience. I just... I love it!

[ratsprayer]

i can't handle joyce.  he's bland and boring, but that's just my opinion.

i prefer wordsworth and coleridge.

[megisnotreal]

Wordsworth and Coleridge are great, too.

I just can't help myself from idolizing Joyce.

Here are two great quotes from the man himself:

"Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art; it is the part the schools cannot recognize."

"Poetry, even when apparently most fantastic, is always a revolt against artifice, a revolt, in a sense, against actuality."

Carrot cake!

taking the next 5 days to go to a training in Boston and visiting family in Virginia.

Really need to hit the open road!
