- My first time at the Episcopal Church in Athens, with Ms. Kelley McArthur and farm friends. I was incredibly impressed.
- Philosophical ponderings/general orneriness with Mr. Kelly Latimore (who gifted me the beautiful book of Chilean poetry and prose, pictured above).
- Chit-chats with Ms. Morky Magic.
- Skype with my music-making-soul-brother, who is going somewhere big; just you see.
- Thesis. Thesis. Thesis.
- Arcade Fire. Arcade Fire. Arcade Fire.
- ice cream sandwiches.

EL VERDADERO PROBLEMA
de la Filosofía.
(Nicanor Parra)
es quién lava los platos
nada del otro mundo
Dios
la verdad
el transcurso del tiempo
claro que sí
pero primero quién lava los platos
el que quiera lavarlos que los lave
chao pescao
y tan enemigos como ante
(THE GREAT ENIGMA/ of philosophy/ is who's going to wash the dishes/ it isn't life after death/ God/ Truth/ the passage of time/ [these things] of course/ but first who's going to wash the dishes
he who wants to wash them, let him wash them/ later alligator/ and true enemies forever).
