JR Learns His Lessons No. 1
.1.jpg)
The caption reads: The worst time to propose in law school is when your intended victim is immersed in a 40-case long assignment in Negotiable Instruments Law. Setting an accomodation with her is impossible and if you insist on harrassing her, not only will she effectively render your "instrument" non-negotiable but she will send you back to your maker.
Apparantly, Celeste was able to learn the Five-Point-Palm-Exploding Scrotum Technique. Bugoys Beware...

It's In The Cards
I've been reading the tarot for about six or seven years now. I started out with a deck I got based on my favorite RPG of all time, Mage: the Ascension (and now I've marked myself out as a complete geek), later got one done by Dave McKean of Sandman cover art fame, and actually took a Greek Myth-type deck from someone who was reporting 'strange phenomena' around it. Yes, I performed a banishing rite on them. No, don't ask me how.
The trouble is, not only do I tire out quickly doing the readings, but I also end up knowing probably too much for my own good. While I do admit a guilty sort of mad glee when I deliver bad news to people who need a wakeup call, it's a little more difficult delivering the same kind of bad news to people you don't want to burden with the knowledge. Sometimes I feel like lying about what the cards say, but I've never done it. It doesn't strike me as natural to make stuff up when the story's lying in front of you.
So I end up in sort of a privileged-communication type of fiduciary relationship with many of the people I read for. I have had more than ten times the amount of vicarious living most people probably should have.
It's all right though, I happen to like it. It's just overwhelming at times. I came close to quitting doing readings a few times, when I started to feel burdened by the knowledge of things I'd read. But considering my life seems to be one committed to 1) consuming more and more knowledge and 2) fixing things, I know better than to leave this behind. I just have to learn to deal with it better, I think.
But I probably need a break anyway.

Unfortunately, EdRo didn't make it past the Marinela casting director, so he returned to law school for another year of teasing Emil about Bej.

Bej's Apartment #2
Having recovered her composure, Bej poses with her flatmate Trina I and a few of the roaches, Carlo, Cel, Emil, and Paula, seen here right before they scurry back to their books and readings.

Welcome to Bej's Apartment
Bej discovers just how huge the roaches lurking outside her flat are -- and that they've come bringing good tidings, Coke Light, and Dewberry. It's too bad they can't carry even a simple tune like 'Happy Birthday'.

About this blog
- Way too many of us are now enjoying the sorts of freedoms that our 1950âs counterparts couldnât even have dreamed of. Hell, you couldnât even read D.H. Lawrenceâs âLady Chatterlyâs Loverâ back then: thatâs how repressed things were! Itâs easy to forget what freedoms we now enjoy, but we should try our damnedest to be aware of these freedoms, because there are a bunch of bastards on the highest rungs of the ladder who would like to deprive us of these freedoms. Theyâd like us all to be blind, unquestioning sheep - little cogs in the big machine that they control.
- Personally, I try my best not to be part of that machine. In my mindâs eye the machine is the epitome of all evil and I donât want to be either a little or a big cog in it. I donât want to participate in the running of this machine and would, if I knew how, happily sabotage it. I donât approve of war. I donât approve of the economic exploitation of the third world. I donât approve of social inequalities. I donât approve of the environmental devastation of the planet. And I donât believe the lies that are told to justify these actions.
