billy joel is awesome. me and my cousin used to make fun of his brother (also my cousin) for listening to him. we were like, 8 or 9. now, goddamn consistently blown away by the man. that is, Joel, not my cousin.
C- try again without pronouns
but he won't let me spend time with his book because he fights with him all the time when the book goes missing. and she won't get me my own book because it's to expensive to pay for it, and then also that on top of it. she's a bitch though, I wish she hadn't left so she would still be in charge of my learning about it.
How did Indian people make things spicy BEFORE peppers?
Did they?!
I'm estimating their diet consisted entirely of that white, mushy, tasteless stuff I found at the Pakistani restaurant in Atlanta. It was like some sort of dumpling in a weird gravy.

They had Malabar (black) Pepper, which is where Chili Peppers got their name. Outside of tangy flavors like garlic or onions, that was all they had in terms of spicy-hot. It kind of blows the mind.
Also, potatoes, tomatoes, chocolate, peanuts, corn were all from the Americas. Most all the "native" cuisines we know of are quite recent. It makes one wonder what people in Europe or Asia ate before Columbus.

That would be Jaipur Karhi. And no, they didn't eat those before because those dumplings are potato dumplings.
If all my notes weren't still boxed up, I could totally tell you the staple foods of early Indus Valley civilizations. Instead, I'll leave you with an archaeological fun fact:
It is impossible to distinguish between the remains of sheep and the remains of goats in the archaeological record. As such, archaeologists often use the term sheep-goats when talking about cultures that domesticated these animals, as we have no way of knowing which it was.

That might have rung some bells if all the signs weren't written in Urdu. It was so nasty, though. Maybe they just didn't do a good job with it, but it was pretty fucking offensive.

alright off to check walmart. I'll be wearing a seatbelt GIM. and I'll report my findings when I get back. if this mission is a failure... I may kill myself. just to be dramatic about it.
:whistle:We didn't start the fire,
It was always burning since the world's been turning,
We didn't start the fire,
No we didn't light it, but we tried to fight it...:whistle:
I'm concerned about Medo's desire to go skydiving in Portland when from what I hear The Gorge, not far away, is like a windsurfing mecca. Indeed, I plan to a) develop my skills and b) go crazy on a 4.5m2 day. BOOOYAHHHH!!!!

Bleh. Vomited. I haven't had that as a nervous reaction in a while.
Jesus dude, what's going on?
Moving to New York, parents threatened divorce once when the thought I was out, ex is trying to contact me again and being slightly crazy, a friend of mine actually withdrew my invitation to his wedding when I was once his best man.
Within the past 24 hours.
Mentally I'm fine. My body doesn't handle stress well, though.

Well, the good news:
I'm moving to beautiful upstate New York and living in an apartment right on a lake.
I have a 50% scholarship to the school I'm winding up going to, saving 20k a year.
My father is loaning me the money at 5%, far under what I would have had otherwise.
I'll be getting a new laptop to replace my five year-old one, which still works.
And, uh.
Everyone here?
Sucks moving up to a state I have not a single person I know in, though, outside of here.
Puck: I hop on a train tomorrow at 9 AM for NY. No. Not hangin' with my peeps.

Would you settle for Elton John in a fetal position?

Until I saw my fourth lolcat, I never realised I could hate so much.
Again, my mental state is great. Doesn't even phase me at this point.
But physically -- I don't know. I've never seemed to be able to control the butterflies or the heartburn or the whatever.
Well you will have instant peeps at school since everyone is in the same boat. You'll do fine.
