this might be the worst day of my life
i am having a very bad day. my purse was stolen - my dooney and burke one. that had my friggin chanel sunglasses in them. and my wallet with my id, credit cards, bruin card, atm card and my ralphs club card. i am pissed. i also broke my tiffany's earring today. so basically, im like a grand in the hole. and that sucks.
but on a brighter note, it is kristin's birthday. hooray kristin! it seems that kristin has gone from 0 to insta-adult in about two weeks. haha. kind of irritating, but that's ok. i might get there someday and then i'll change my tune...maybe.
watched a few amazing movies - narcotic (1933), maniac (1934), mystic river, the original stepford wives (did you know that the lead plays the shrink in donnie darko? i was stoked) and watership down which is a cartoon about a few bunny rabbits who see impending doom and escape to face obstacle after obstacle...it was one of those weird cartoons with blood and death and fighting. pretty crazy and exciting at the same time.
i'm almost done reading guns, germs and steel. i have to say, it was a bit repetitive but had very interesting observations. i believe one thing that diamond has to keep in mind though is that correlation is not necessarily causation. other that that, very well founded. and i learned that africa was not all black! from the beginnings of homo sapiens, there were whites, blacks, khoisans and some other type along with an asian mix in madagascar that called africa home. i think the most interesting chapters of the book are on continental axes, animal domestication, writing/language and africa. if you're going to read this, i'd say hit those chapters for sure and take or leave the other ones.
alright, i have a headache. i'll talk about other stuff like massachusetts and breaking up with brian (again) at a later time. until then, continue to pursue a greater understanding of the world fellow rangers!
