kickin' back

hoo hah!  it's friday afternoon.  a better than usual week, somehow.  good classes, not too exhausted.  "how can i keep from singing" winging out in eva's remarkable way, here in the gorgeous late-afternoon fall sunlight.  and, imagine this, i got blogmentioned on Old Hickory's Weblog!  oh frajous day, calloo calay, my fifteen minutes of fame have finally arrived!

it had been my ambition this afternoon to start getting my links in order  (a vaguely S/M ring to that phrase somehow. no, wait, of course.....it's golf! not chains, after all.) here on the journal this afternoon.  but, after this morning's four-hour writing class the korean gang had the rest of us (a few latinos, one turk, and me!) down to the Son's house in bethany for "lunch."  this was a potluck affair organized around ismail's jones for teriyaki chicken.  not a korean dish, but in the asian ballpark, what the hell.  good enough for him.  we had any number of foods i couldn't identify, all of which i scarfed down with gusto.  there was a noodle/sauce dish that was.....whoooo baby!.......fiery hot and kickass good.  yes.  this was not "lunch."  this was a major feast.  i may not actually need to eat again the rest of the weekend.

so, my ambition has cooled for serious work.  well, serious work for a friday afternoon, okay?  not really serious work.  and i'll have to start another entry anyway to have enough room.  blogfather scalzi tells me the entry character limit will be removed "in a few months."  why not just go ahead and remove it now?  huh?  it's great news, whenever.
