Just drove 12 hours in a rental car through a blizard, freezing rain and thunderstorms to my temp "apartment" in Maryland. Drinking white wine now at the TGIFri nextdoor.

Just spent 6 hours in a pool. Today was a crazy day.

I take it that being submerged in liquid for an extended period of time was not the craziest thing that happened?

Totally not. One of the highlights was playing volleyball using bras as the net.

I've been doing so many pushups soon I'll be able to wear small bras myself.

It's too late. No amount of pushups or sports bras will change her mind.

It's over.

Butthurt, on the other hand, is courting me quite aggresively.

All I ever wanted was elegant women. All I ever get are raunchy dudes.

Might want to chuck in some air squats, too, or you'll end up looking like a cartoon mafioso.

You like Kafka, Buzzard? I'm halfway through Description of a Struggle and it's doing my head in. Even more confusing than I recall.

if you haven't read it already pretty sure you will like "Investigations of a dog" by Kafka as well.

I did when I read his short stories in prison. But I didn't pay them the proper attention so I am rereading them all now slowly.

Must be awesome to read him auf Deutsch.

Depends really, some of the unfinished stuff breaks my head, but that probably did't become easier to read in a translation.

I blame my inability to crush bugs on Kafka. I was in elementary school when I got Metamorphosis and somehow that really screwed my head. "you don't know who that bug is, do not step on it!" Thanks, Gregor Samsa, I think of you every time a bug lands on me when I try to fall asleep.

it's about polygamy. they are "sisters" to each other and wives to one man. some of them are religious and some of them you can tell are just in it for the multiple wives. one household has like 3 or 4 wives and 18 total children. Nooooo thank you!

I've liked much of what I've read, though that's only been a moderate amount.

After grabbing a copy of "The Complete Stories," I've been chipping away at it from time to time. In the Penal Colony remains my favorite so far, I think.

Yeah Penal Colony is mind blowing.

Just got my ass handed to me in the library. They blocked my laptop. No more Cowboy Bebop downloads for you!

Christian fuckers... heh.

As in, they blocked your MAC address at the router?

Changed the password and didn't tell you the new one?

Hid the laptop itself in a safe you can't crack?

I'm having somewhat of a crisis regarding my apartment situation. One of the units in the back opened up. It's second-floor with its own entrance, away from the street. This would spare me having to pass by obnoxious neighbors multiple times a day and make leaving the windows open in nice weather much more tolerable.

Downside is, the layout is pretty terrible and I'd have to really have to cramp myself in a bit to make it work (mostly thinking of my bed and allowing room for the dog to roam). It's also $100 a month more. But more privacy! Less noise! A porch, even! What is a boy to do?

More on this terribly uninteresting story as it develops.

Background info: I have a mentally ill downstairs neighbor who means well, but borderline stalks me (i.e. follows me out at 6:30 in the morning to warn me to be safe and to look out for the other neighbors, among other creepy behavior). On the other hand, I really like the layout of my current apartment. It's more or less perfect -- for me (and my dog). It kinda pangs me a little bit to let it go for an apartment I'm not that thrilled with, save for the aforementioned perks.

do you think you could get used to a smaller living space? i usually find that adjustment rather easy, especially if privacy is on the line

Said neighbor is also almost 50, pregnant and goes outside for a smoke every 20 minutes.

Sometimes I'll peep out the window and wait for her to go back inside before I head out. Sigh.

Maybe I'm the one who's crazy. Took, got any thoughts on this dynamic?
