It may be an animal city...but it's almost definitely a cannibal world

I've now been back in Pennsylvania for about 2 days during which time I've somehow managed to leave my car lights on for an extended period of time, thus completely draining the battery.

Damn, I'm special.

Other then that, home is OK. And by OK what I mean is war zone. I'm really not going to get into details here because, let's face it, York is a really small town and news spreads almost as fast here as it does among the ICP but I will say that on the sliding scale of badness I devised in anticipation of my return, it's about as bad as I expected it could be. No worse though, so I was as prepared as humanly possible.

My biggest fear is that I see no way that I can come out of the summer as anything but a shell of a person, completely devoid of human emotions and that scares the hell out of me. At this point my plan is to avoid home as much as possible and spend as much time as possible with very colourful people in hopes that it will balance out the grey.

I got an iTrip for Durkheim. This may or may not have been a smart move, we shall see. I also found the first season of Nip/Tuck for like $30.00 as opposed to the $50.00 it is at Best Buy, so I'll be spending some time immersed in that drama, as opposed to my own.

On May 22 (Monday), I'm going to Avon with Kat. All I can say to that is YAY. I will come back gloriously tanned and hopefully relaxed, which was not something I got to do during the last few weeks of wind-down in the city. Not complaining, it was a lot of fun, but it wasn't exactly soothing.

June 8 is Cake Day. I'm mildly playing with the idea of picking up a bottle of tequila when I'm in DC to mix up some margaritas for this glorious celebration. We shall see, we shall see. If not I'm kind of liking the idea of strawberry daquiris...avec or sans rum whatever the case may be.

Paging through the Autobiography of Malcolm X which is amazing. Will hopefully have it finished before I leave for the beach, and will be able to read slightly more cheerful material down there.
