ice cream is going to save the day 0

Had a nice Wednesday…yerba mate got me through the work day yet again. Then I hit up Arden Fair with Mario, and picked up a book that I have decided to just bite the bullet on and buy. It’s huge, and it’s expensive, but I think it’s going to be very interesting.

Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid

It’s 777 pages and I haven’t even gotten through the preface yet, but I think it’s going to be edifying.

Class was okay…I solved this challenging averages problem and my teacher had to chime in that with a graphing calculator it does it all for you. Once again, no it fucking doesn’t. That teacher is such a fuckhead. I used it for multiplication and division. It’s like we’re on fucking trial. What a douche.

This is what he looks like, minus about ten years.

Anyway, Crash came over tonight and I made tacos (the first time I had in a while, being non-poor means I can eat other things than pasta, woo!) and we watched Michael Moore’s Sicko.

See that movie. You will be disgusted by the sheer inhumanity of the things our government and private sector allow. And I love how good Michael Moore is at making scenes.

We watched the Imaginationland episodes of South Park (they won an Emmy, so I thought it would be good to revisit them).

After that, Crash and I had ice cream and played my Star Trek TNG board game, which is always funny and incredibly 80s. We found out that there’s a VHS tape-based Star Trek TNG board game which I guess has this Klingon guy taunting you the whole time. I really want to get it on eBay but it’s like $20 and my entertainment budget for this pay period is already maxed out with GEB (the book).

Well, it’s time for sleep. I’m hoping to get to work early so I can get off early, go to True Love and dive into GEB (maybe I’ll get past the preface!)
