tight membranes. . . like juicy wi brats! think tasty then, not painful. . . hmm, two comments and both include food references. . . no I don't have any issues with food and weight.
I went to a swim class last night--working out in the water is like being a kid playing at the pool. . . so imagine my surprise when I woke up this morning to discover that I have abs! I can't see them yet, but damn, they hurt!
I am a dickinson fan. i was an english major, and spent an entire semester just on her and her work. i went up and walked her estate, saw her town, etc. i have all her works in my bookcase at home.
one of the things that have mystified me, as a linguaphile, is how meter changes when meaning doesn't, as poetry is translated. dickenson doesn't work in spanish too well, i have found. she does well in french, and some works are even better in itallian i think. i wish i knew more middle eastern or asian languages to test there, though i tend to think that the differences in allegorical roots would make the translation really fucking difficult.
to say i am a fan od ed is something of a mixed statement. i love her work for what it is, and what she brought to it, but i think, for many reasons, her work has been brought out of focus by over-exposure. also, it took me a while to go back to her, since my in-depth immersion for an entire semester.
I was also an english major, but my skills are rusty. I focused on creative writing in many forms. today my english major is used daily when I tell my children, "no, no, no"
it's fun to chat/talk/type with an intelligent human with a sense of humor.
I love hearing common phrases in a different language--american might say, you make a better door than a window, but a spaniard would say, donkey's flesh is not transparent. love that! unfortunately I speak no languages other than english and momspeak. I understand a little spanish and german BUT I am fluent in dutch when I drink enough amstel!
