electric age

this is my five-year plan:
  1. work
  2. travel
  3. ???
  4. ???
  5. profit
i'd like to thank south park for the business advice.

this weekend i bought six books:
  • some toni morrison book from 1998
  • a book justifying the spanish empire
  • narrative of the life of frederick douglas
  • the bluest eye
  • an alice walker collection, including the color purple, meridian, and some short stories
  • and an old bound copy of gulliver's travels
treasures! i paid $11. matt bought a tv. $800. he said "with all that money you're spending on books you could buy yourself a tv." i already have a tv. i watched black cat, white cat on it tonight and it made me want to be in love. but i am going to need a bigger bookshelf. somehow i bought a second copy of sula and an old abridged copy of black boy, before the part about communists was restored. they'll make good presents, or i can sell them. ooh, that's how i'll make space! sell all those old logic textbooks! logic, as you might have guessed, has no place in the five year plan.
