Dancing Goat coffee, we meet again.

It must be the first day of classes.

Quick change—unofficially auditing Lucretius instead, then taking Trojan War for credit. Look at this fucking schedule—I don’t have to be conscious until 11 am on Mondays and Wednesdays, then three-day-weekends every week. Yes.

I can’t wait to take notes some more.

And, just for fun, these are notes I took at the Temple of Mars Ultor this summer. Can you tell at what point I started falling asleep?

While I was cleaning up my flat, I found last year’s notebook.

Kate Bush - Cloudbusting

But every time it rains
You’re here in my head
Like the sun coming out
Ooh, I just know that something good is going to happen
And I don’t know when
But just saying it could even make it happen

Far be it from me to be dead to Six…here is Gucci and me, Christmas 2008-ish.

Well if this email concerning my ‘memorable’ recommendation to the Rome summer program didn’t just make my month, nothing will (even if it is all lies. If anybody made Classics cool again, it was the fantastic department, although a friend of mine and I bribed friends and acquaintances with baked goods to attend our Honors talks, that may have helped?).

I’m not sure if I should be posting screencaps of people’s emails to me on Tumblr, but this was just too flattering not to. Thanks for the ego boost, former advisor!

I can’t ride a bike. My college application essays were all about how I couldn’t ride a bike. And three years ago, visiting Caitlin here in Ojai for Christmas, I tried, but then face-planted at a major intersection. And one time, I straight-up biked into a ditch beside the Oberlin bike trail.

Well, today, Caitlin made me get on one again. Here is me not faceplanting. Hooray!
