Sunday morning in the library, they’re cleaning and polishing the marble floors. From inside the Rosencrans Reading Room, I heard the machine start up, whirring. I thought at first it was a giant mechanical octopus sucking its way down the corridor with flailing metal arms, beware bleary students and binders stuffed full.

eeeyur! auntie! cheh!! is it always all come back to mr. bean for you??? :-p

eh, i don't think my panic has ever recommended that i carry snacks around. however, because i am me, of clourse! i have snacks. yesterday's library snacks were:
* one small ziploc bag of pistachios and dried cranberries,
* one gala apple from the grand army plaza saturday greenmarket,
* one bar of jacques torres mandarin-lemon-chamomile chocolate, and
* one ricotta-prosciutto sandwich on mocha-raisin bread.

wah! it was a tasty day.

i see you are continuing the tradition of smoked salmon on choc chip bagel. o~< you see? one eye is shut! however. snacks. i want snacks. today on the trip to the funeral, my snacks were:
* one cherry chupa chup
* one tangello
* a jar of honey roasted cashews
* far too many pieces of chocolate fudge slice at the reception afterwards

snacks put the "fun" in "funeral".

also, harlow, panic.

eh, yah! the good ol' salty-sweet mix. i am libra, you don't know meh? MEH?? i am libra, hear me balance!

although ackshewerlly the mocha-raisin bread is very unsweet. which is cheh!-worthy, because i wanted a sweet bread. it smells very mocha-y, but then you bite into it and it is just a dry, dark bread that doesn't taste of mocha and doesn't taste of raisin. chits me my money! i need to go back to the bakery and say: give me my money back, give me my money back, (and don't forget to give me back my black t-shirt).

in conclusion, thank you for explaining the one-eye-closed emoticon. your next challenge (that's french): make the emoticon that describes the joint filmic venture of stanley kubrick, nicole kidman, and tom cruise. tankyu!, please come again.
