I was glad to learn this past weekend that the fair homeless people of Seattle, or at least one of them, has decided to start appealing to Seattlite humor rather than their respective senses of moral duty. Imagine a very homeless-looking person in front of Westlake Center on a particularly windy and torrentially rainy Saturday morning with a four-foot tall sign reading the above title of this post.
In other news... Well, Soraya and I went up to Seattle on Saturday morning, but we ended up staying only through lunch as the new medication I was recently put on made me super-sick (I was silly enough to take it before driving up to Seattle without knowing what effect it would have on me). After all that, I ended up at Baba & Angi's house for a Norouz celebration-dinner with much family, food, etc. That was nice. On Sunday I went with David to his house for his mom's birthday--there was a large Parker clan gathering, babies included. After lunch (more like dinner, even though it was at noon), everyone taller than four feet trundled off to the movie theater to see Amazing Grace, a movie I would recommend. Even though it was a movie about abolition, I don't think it could have been funnier--funny in a witty-dialogue sort of way that is. Those Brits have an excellent sense of humor sometimes. So there you have it, go see it if you need something to and it's still in theaters.
Today was relatively unremarkable. I went to my classes, and I've been working on homework all day. I've finished my IPE reading for the week, the German homework for the night (minus the studying for the Verb Quiz on Friday), and finished one chapter and one assignment for Economics.
O, in other news, just to keep everyone updated on my weirdo health condition... I went to see my primary physician on Friday, and she has no idea what's wrong with my stomach. So I had a ton of bloodwork done on Friday after my appointment, and I'm getting a CT scan of my abdomen on Wednesday. I'm not really worried about the scan nearly so much as I'm working about having to drink the barium for it. I also have an appointment with my surgeon on Wednesday. It's going to be a doctor-ful day. And in other news, I have been put back on my un-exciting bland diet--as I described it to Deniz, it's low-fiber, low-fat, low-DELICIOUSNESS.
Tomorrow I've got work and it sounds like I might see Cary! He's in town, hooray for that! O, I should mention that I saw Kathryn off on Friday--well, sort of, I went over to her house and say goodbye before she left for the airport. I think that counts as seeing her off. Back to Maine, she goes! It does sounds like Cary and I will be heading out on a Cary-Ari date tomorrow.
I really need to put away my clothes and organize myself once again, but I've been far too focused on homework. I guess that's a good thing that I'm not trying to distract myself from the things that really require getting done--like reading. What does it matter that my room's a mess? Well, not much else to report at the moment, I'll be studying tomorrow morning, going to Fitness class, then off to work! More soon, :-) Ari
