Poor Lace, all she wants to do is go to Greece, but I won't let her, because it's my one chance to hit the nordic countries while I'm in Europe. Mind you, it's Christmas break, but what of it?

A Barbary Ape Tried to Eat Me and My BLT. Humorous Blips from a Backpack. Tuesday, August 26, 2003. First Day of Class. My first day of school is also hell. My first class is conducting with the evil George Stelluto. He decides to sit around all day asking broad, metaphysical questions and then making fun of us for trying to answer. It gets so bad that other people actually express sorrow for me. Conversation between Holly and some kids from my class-. Kids: "Yeah, George is such an asshole. ". So I've g...

AM: "Would you gain control over your child, and tell him to stop kicking my seat? The woman seated behind us is chagrined and starts cursing at her son under her breath. I have to bite my tongue to keep from cheering. Finally, someone who understands my opinions on child-rearing! Tap the person on the shoulder pleasantly and say-.

A Barbary Ape Tried to Eat Me and My BLT. Humorous Blips from a Backpack. Thursday, July 31, 2003. Time to pack up camp since it's my last day in Vienna. Decide to go back to the Rathaus to catch one last opera, but I keep glancing over my shoulder for Old Psycho. Thankfully, I don't see him, but it hampers my enjoyment somewhat. Old dirty bastard.
