aggienaut | My Weekend Begins on Monday (Reply)

   Today Gabi (samedisorder) came over and we spiked my hair with Elmer's glue.
   What kind of a name is "Elmer," really?

   Otherwise I just took it easy today, and did my best not to leave my apartment for any period of time (no class today). The weather was beautiful though; all grey and damp.

   So I really like the corn chowder in the Coffee House. Its one of my favourite things -- once I've removed the tomatoes that is.
   Kristy and I have a recipe book my mother put together and looking through it we found "[Uncle] Ben's Corn Chowder," with the note "(Kris really likes this)" and I was like "oh yea! thats excellent. I'd forgotten about it." So we set about making it and indeed it was good.
   Eating dinner with Ben & Bev on Easter, I mentioned the corn chowder, to which Ben responded "oh yea.. I think I came up with that because I liked the corn chowder at the coffee house so much so I decided to try to make my own." Its all a giant circle you see.

   Incidentally, since the only chiles we could find in the grocery store were extremely mild, I had the bright idea of using jalepenos instead of mild green chiles. The resulting batch of corn chowder is MAD HOT.
   But I still love it. If you think you're hard core you should come over here and brave the killer corn chowder before I finish it (ie tomorrow evening).

   I thought I had more to say but as usual I seem to have forgotten whatever it was by this late hour that I'm writing this. Psha on that.
   I spent most of my evening reading about Russian peasant rebellions in the 17th century. This resulted in my discovery of the word jacquerie among other things.

Sidenote
   I think I'm about to replace the old disclaimer in my user info with a new one more similar to the one in the last update, so for posterity's sake, here is the old one:
THE DISCLAIMER: Any portrayal of events herein described which one may perceive or interpret to be in violation of any university edict, residence hall policy, Californian or Federal laws, is entirely fictional. These stories have been made up to make the lives of the staff and writers seem significantly more interesting than they actually are, and to give the RAs the warm feeling that there actually ARE violations out there for them to find, whereas in actuality we are all in strict observance of all policies.

   And the NEW one:
