zendo shmabstract

Blech.
Sets the tone, right?

Anyway, it's only blech because of school. I don't want to write my abstract shmabstract, and I definitely don't want to read and post. I'm already a day late on that one. I really dislike my teaching composition class.

Some good news. Who watches the Watchmen? I do. Or I did. Come talk to me about it, and I will defend Rorschach to the end. Also, I am pretty much officially taking Shotokan now. So I can kick your ass, yo.

In other news, Shotokan is really cheap for me to take (about $13 a month because I'm splitting the cost with my dad- super super cheap), but going to my Buddhist temple in general is $90 a month. Ouch. So I'm trying to work something out, and it looks like I might be the new care taker and live at the temple and take care of it. Which would be so amazing I can hardly think about it. Except I couldn't take my cat. =( But he's happier here anyway. I would like to move out again, but it's very expensive, and I have no one to live with. I would still pay rent at the zendo, but very little. There's a bedroom that they don't use, and someone should be around to water plants, etc. We'll see.

Stupid Shmabstract. I think I'll start reading Charles Olsen first. I don't want to be in school anymore. Definitely no PhD for me. I'm burnt out.

I love you.

I love you too. And your cat won't hate you for leaving. At least not in the same way I resent Cash for staying.

If you need someone to keep you in a constant state of alertness once you start your new super-zen concentrated lifestyle, just let me know.
I love you!
