It's been a little while since I've updated my, now de-facto, travel blog; this may or may not have impacted approximately zero people. Oh well. It's important to keep a record for posterity, if nothing else.
(Or you, dear reader.)
So, yeah, I'm currently in Sorrento, Italy - came here (via several connecting flights and an hour long car trip...) from Budapest, Hungary.

I'm writing this message from my laptop, in my room, at the____ Hotel in Prague. We got in yesterday at around 3:30 local time; walked around for a little bit, ate some sausage.
What is it like? First of all it is pretty chilly. Maybe 64 degrees in the sun (its even rather sunny right now) I understand that this is somewhat cooler than normal...

just found out that a poli-sci grad student from my school died in iraq. she was working in some sort of 'social engineering' capacity for the army. i didn't know her, but i couldn't finish reading the e-mail. i'm usually the last person you'd expect to care about this sort of shit. godspeed nicole.
januseyes: As bad as I am about staying up
really late and not getting enough sleep I really, really
like waking up early in the morning
januseyes: especially going to downtown charles
village in the course of an early-morning routine

st paul street and 34th - and then walking a block to
university market to acquire some...

Glad you liked the book.
Yeah, I'd like to see something that you wrote. I've gone through dry spells that have lasted considerable amounts of time - it's not like it 'spells the end' for your artistic ability.
It's good that someone has some talent or inclination for it. I'm not exactly a Neanderthal without it getting done - but I do suffer from the curse of the Semite.
Gives me 'lashes though. Happy about that, really.

I was parking my car in the lot across the street from my apartment, I was feeling a little put out - it was 1 in the morning - all that was left was going home and to bed. Then the Smashing Pumpkins - 1979 came on the radio. I had to drive my car through the winding ravines surrounding campus until it ended. It...

I love C&C Carryout...the little Korean resturant/diner at the corner of St. Paul and 32nd. Half of the menu is normal diner fare - eggs, pancakes, burgers, etc. - the other half is Korean food - bim bim bop, fried dumplings, beef bulgogi.
(They also sell untaxed cigarettes under the counter; I don't buy them - but think that it's rather excellent.)

Went to 'Fresh Fresh' (seafood/soul food resturant in downtown Towson) for dinner tonight. The woman who runs it reminds me of Mother Abigail from Stephen King's The Stand. Sort of 'Good Witch of the North' meets Aunt Jemima. Whatever the case, she makes excellent shrimp + macaroni & cheese; the refills came with a certain near-omniscience to their timing.
Honestly, I don't think that...

I picked up my car today; finally. Goro shat on the floor following her dinner. Don't know how to discipline an iguana - don't suspect that it's possible. Maybe she was angry that I trimmed her nails. Fairly certain that she gets angry.
So, I'm back in Baltimore. It was good to visit home. It was good to see Rachel, Chad and Janet, Clayton, and Ed again. I don't know why this would mean anything to anyone - but it probably doesn't mean anything to anyone either if I said anything about the platonic elements in the Timaeus being analytic principles rather than constructive ones (Janet agreed and...

Message sent. Glad he isn't tamed. Was OK with the ending of the first season. Want to see more.
I need to drop my car off at the body shop before I leave for Chicago. I need to find someone to iguana-sit for me. My apartment is a total mess. My apartment is too messy for me to have an iguana sitter come over; thus, I have to both clean my apartment and find an iguana sitter...

Went out for coffee with Monica. We talked about the pragmatics/semantics distinction and optimality theory. Those crazy Cog-Sci kids...
Then I dropped her off on campus. I stopped by Paul and Laura's place and we shot at pidgins (pun! [or I can't spell pigeons{...}]) with an airsoft gun. Then we watched Andromeda Strain. The virus brought down an aircraft.
