I'm Back (Did you know I was gone?)

Phew. Just got back from whirlwind trip to the American Studies Association conference in DC. Pictures and more information forthcoming. Don't worry. There was nary an academic moment. Even the few panels and papers I went to didn't seem terribly academic. Bob Dylan, Hawaiian-themed restaurants, and folk music. I love my program.

Right now I gotta get to bed. I woke up yesterday morning with a devil eye - half red. Blood red. It's scary. I'm a little nervous that when I wake up tomorrow, the transformation will be complete and my whole eye will be glowing. It sucks. It doesn't hurt or anything. Just looks nasty and forces me to wear my glasses (that I can't see with because old perscription). If it takes a while to heal, I'm thinking of getting a patch so that I can at least wear one contact and look extra cool. Secretly, I'm afraid it's going to explode and leave a cavernous gap. My one beauty.

Yay! Welcome Back! Can't wait to see pictures and stuff. Posted by: kylie at November 7, 2005 12:55 AM
Hehehe...sounds like a creepy eye. It will explode in a few days, I've seen it happen *nods*. By the way, your clubbing experience sounds like something I'd do. Analyze the psychological impact of a rapid change of music style...right up my alley. Ha. Anyways, you should be excited for me...I'm buying a melodica (mouth-organ) off eBay thanks to your sweet picture of Jenny (Decemberist's.) Random. Just thought I should let you know.

oooh, that is exciting. I found one of those at a flea market in Austria once. I gave it to a friend, after bleaching out the yuckiness. I'm so glad to have you stop by, random dude from Oregon. Although, I have to admit, it kind of weirds me out to think that people actually read this. Posted by: carbon at November 8, 2005 09:14 PM

Are you serious?! at a flea market?! That is so cool (and lucky). You're too generous, you should've kept it. Hahaha, I was wondering how long it'd take you to notice some creepy kid from Oregon was reading this. It's just my idea of something to do every day :-D Posted by: Random Dude From Oregon at November 9, 2005 07:57 AM
