Whew.

Waiting for the mister to sign on the dotted line so we can get this show on the road. The little fat girl was promised DINNER!



I have just returned from a 40 minute brisk lunch time walk. Desperately trying to cool down.

My art history professor made a comment today that made me feel very uncomfortable, and I don't know how to proceed. She basically said that if a woman dresses a certain way, she can't complain when she gets grabbed (by a man). She's older (50s-60s), so maybe it's a generation thing. The girl next to me felt uncomfortable as well. I don't want to run to the admin like a child, but I signed up for an art history class, not her views on sexual harassment/rape.


I really hope that this is a one time thing. I actually like the material that we're learning.


Hopefully she just wasn't thinking...
Arrh here the weather has been a gray, mushy fog during the day and a black mushy fog during the night - I miss the sun! :-)

I love Bdubs. :)

The area where the college is is conservative republican. We also have hosted many republican events on campus recently, much to my dismay. It's kinda the rich WASPy crowd.

So you want to stay discombobulated?

Actually, Bun, it's one of the five principles of art history, as codified by Swiss connoisseur Heinrich Wölfflin in Kunstgeschichtliche Grundbegriffe (1915): linearity, unity, planar recession, tectonic form, and nice girls seldom expose their ankles in public.
...or at least that's what I think he said. My German is a little rusty.

The aura is over. I think I'm going to nap now.

I hope you feel better soon,LG.

I'm scared of cold medications. They always seem to do a number on me.
Lesson: don't take a decongestant if you have to be out in public for the next 48 hours. Your nose will NOT stop running. It's a disaster. Infinitely better to be completely congested.

"Also, the romance is between a polar bear and a girl. Despite the fact I tried to over-come this, eventually I let my ethics make me put it down."
Yeah I hear you, girl.
