Caline
by Kate Chopin (1850-1904) The sun was just far enough in the west to send inviting shadows. In the centre of a small field, and in the shade of a haystack which was there, a girl lay sleeping. She had slept long and soundly, when something awoke her as suddenly as if it had been a blow. She opened her eyes and stared a moment up in the cloudless sky. She yawned and stretched her long brown legs...

artsystar: shorterexcerpts: Original Saturday night plans fell through (not in a bad way…and it turned out to be good timing, as I’ve felt hermit-esque today; sometimes staying in is better when one’s in a mood) but I did make my “I’m bringing good beer to this shindig” pre-Superbowl party beer run. Why? Because we can’t buy beer on Sundays; apparently our Gov. thinks we’ll go to hell or...

Ugh, since I can’t embed the mp3 for whatever reason, click on the link and then click play on ‘Caline de Binne’ and it’ll start playing.  Jon Bartlett is one of my favourite persons on the planet.

With the exception of dairy products, crabcakes and sushi, I’m going the fuck back vegetarian.  I don’t really have a good reason for or against; I just recently re-gave up all carbonated beverages and refined sugar.  We’ll see how my body takes this. In by 1am.  Not bad.  Nice change from New Orleans.  Time for excessive sleeping pills.

Dear defeatism
talliesmokestoomuch: I just stumbled upon the movie that you posted, about ‘Strange Uncle Chris’ who ‘found a hair in his ear’ and realised its like a more psychopathic Hi Fidelity where he’s actually stalking the girls. I would not go out with him on the basis that he’s doing this. Fuck he’s creepy. La Haine?  Ohhhh no no no…that clip of the dude that tracks down all of his exes?  I was...

Some insight into my personal life.
At an all-night coffeeshop because I just can’t sleep.  I’m alternating between Tumblr, Jane’s Defence Weekly, Le Monde, Le Temps, Neue Zürcher Zeitung, The Guardian and playing with my BlackBerry.  I keep running outside to smoke a few precious cigarettes/talk on the phone in two or three languages and every time I come back inside I pour some whisky into my coffee cup from a...

During my freshman year Soulforce came to Liberty’s campus where many of the students were plain hateful. Along with a few other friends, I spent the night before their visit baking...

switchblades: That’s what I thought, ass. I met Lionel Richie one night about 4:30am in the French Quarter of New Orleans.  He was like “HEEEEEYYYYYYY!” in his Lionel Richie voice, and I was like “HEYYYYY IT’S RAY CHARLES!” in my drunky voice and gave him a hug. True story.

I’ve only been here for a few days and the girls at Starbucks (sorry no Beans out east) already know me by name, drink, and I think one barista has already formed a crush on me.  Dude it took like three days to forge this kind of personal connection?  I think I have a problem.

I slept for enough time to kill off the effects of the Guinness, but not the red wine.  Also, the last minute addition of a Riesling was probably a bad idea.  What’s up hangover.
