mail rocks!

1. ARABIC COFFEE AND MAKER!! WOO HOO!! Thanks so much, Tami!! It smells SOOOOO good. Can't wait until this weekend when I have a chance to try to make some. Yum!

2. The Darling by Russell Banks - about an American woman who marries a Liberian and lives there and raises children there and then leaves during war.

Um, I just found out that my slightly crazy roommate HAS THE SAME BIRTHDAY as Dayton. Kerist. She's right now shouting instructions to me - to apologize first, stroke his pride, all that. I know she's right, but I'm pissed off at him. He apologized to me two weeks ago, and then he's still mad at me? That's bait and switch and THAT'S NOT FAIR! And I'm having such K2 flashbacks now that I feel woozy. FUCKING LEOS. Well, more like damn Leos. (No offense, Michele, but your people are a little crazy. You are the only good one I know right now.)

So, I'm going to bed with my fictional Liberian-loving American woman and read a good story instead of all the boring shit I have to read. And hope that Dayton stews for many more days and doesn't call me in the middle of the night to yell some more. He's a slow processor (who isn't, compared to me, the woman with a million plans?). Maybe we'll continue our argument in April.
