lifeeee

So i have some spare time on my hands at work... on days like these I obsessively read the nyt...partly bc it's one of the few sites that seems legit to read (along with wikipedia) at work and isn't blocked

today's a good day to have nothing bc the style section just came out

great article/quote
from the article: Françoise Sagan once wrote, “There is a certain age when a woman must be beautiful to be loved, and then there comes a time when she must be loved to be beautiful.” - LEGIT...this makes me wonder though if i'm screwed...like if i'm not beautiful now then i wont' be loved which means that i won't be beautiful later- what a vicious cycle

lots of good articles today- I had a list going but you should just read the newspaper instead
my absolute favorite though READ THIS IF NOTHING ELSE IN THE POST (which is perfectly reasonble since this is ridiculously rambling): http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/15/garden/15remodel.html?pagewanted=3&src=un&feedurl=http://json8.nytimes.com/pages/garden/index.jsonp

If you want a legitimate picture/understanding of the places i've been to read angela's blog (http://angeinathens.blogspot.com). This is what I said of our two blogs:
"comparing our posts is hilarious yours is very well organized and informative. i'm like a little kid hyped up on ouzo, baklava, and greek coffee. You include interesting, historical details and i just talk about food all the time...bahh" hahaha

you can definitely see where my mind is
i also love reading the nyt food section and epicurious- this is actually terrible bc then i get ridiculously hungry

LIFE UPDATE: Athens/Epidaurus have a film festival june-august (oedipus was part of it). The ancient theater attached to the Acropolis is showing Aida (the opera...i love the musical, one of my favs). So Marj/I are thinking of going our last Wednesday. This also means I can spend today investigating tickets, the theater, and reading the libretto in english/wikipedia article. Solid...that'a legit pastime and none of those sites are blocked. Read the libretto! so excited!
