1. What does it say in the signature line of your emails?
depends on which account you're talking about.
2. Did you have a senior quote in your high school yearbook? What was it? If you haven't graduated yet, what would you like your quote to be?
no...that's lame. the last thing the world needs is a high school senior trying to be pithy.
3. If you had vanity plates on your car, what would they read? If you already have them, what do they say?
hmmmm...i can't remember how many characters you get on a plate. i'm guessing 7. so how
about "BHERENW" althought most people probably wouldn't get it.
4. Have you received any gifts with messages engraved upon them? What did the inscription say?
yes. d once gave me a seashell in which she had written "believe in yourself".
5. What would you like your epitaph to be?
oh god. who knows. how about "you'll be joining me soon enough."

i did all the dishes tonight. cleaned the kitched! yay!
i found this quote and it made me pull out my books of bosch and archimboldo paintings.
"Through me is the way into the woeful city; through me is the way into the eternal woe; through me is the way among the lost people. Justice moved my lofty maker: the divine Power, the supreme Wisdom and the primal love made me. Before me were no things created, save eternal, and I eternal last. Leave every hope, ye who enter!" -Dante
...and speaking of cities, woeful or otherwise, can i recommend a book to you all?
Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino.
i really loved this book. i'm wondering if anyone else sees in it what i do. i keep
hoping someone i know will read it and be as crazy about it as me. but usually the
things i find really profound and revealing of deep meanings, most people i know find
trivial, stupid, pretensious, or confusing. sigh are we destined to not be truly
understood by our peers? or is it just me? Invisible Cities has almost no plot.
the thin connecting thread through the book is a conversation between Marco Polo and
Kubla Kahn. Kubla Kahn has such a vast kingdom that he wishes Marco Polo to describe all
the cities he has visited in his kingdom so he may, at least in mind, travel there.
So basically the entire book is a collection of descriptions of cities. But each city is
a metaphor for everything from memory to death to time to compulsion to sorrow to economics and on and on. i already want to read it again.
