The Silmarillion is my favorite Tolkien, actually!

This weekend was so exhausting. As much as I don't support Columbus Day or Canadian Thanksgiving as holidays, I'm glad I get to have tomorrow off, I've been awake since 4:30am and just got home from a hair show in Miami. It was not glamourous, but I look great!

Yes! Mostly, I find it hilarious because I sort of feel the same way about sweatpants. I cannot. Just give me some leggings instead.

White pearl clutchers would shit themselves, probably!

McCracken, stop embarrassing anthropologists with your horrible grammar. Also, no, that is not the reason that we use ethnography, we don't just assume that all people are lying to us.

I can't get myself to like the V8 splash, the fruit makes it taste weird! Also I am a diehard tomato fiend, but I bet the fruity stuff would definitely be delicious with rum. Hmmm...

Vodka PLUS V8.

Yeah, I think he's distracted by the whole Turkey-Syria possibly blowing each other to smithereens after the lovely explosives exchange they had this morning.

I have a few well fitting bras so I can usually get away with alternating them for three weeks then washing, I never think I can hand wash them as well as I do with my other clothes, I worry that they'll log extra water or something.

You definitely need to eat there! Are you new to the city?

Ergh, I cannot. Also, I am a walker, so I don't like to use the el unless it's raining or otherwise necessary (ie getting from 2nd to 34th) and when they are blocking the sidewalks on my way to the news station or PAWS or anywhere in general I actually have gotten nasty with some people. Hello, others actually inhabit…

Yeah, I don't go to Old City for anything other than fittings at the boutiques north of Market or maybe to go to Farmicia for dinner.

Truth, I used to date the manager of one of the Chestnut St. restaurants and leaving there at midnight after he closed up was horrendous. I've been wanting to move down to Fitler since the environment is just all around better by Lombard.

Unfortunately I occasionally have to venture outside of R-house to go down to Old City for work things, so it's unavoidable.

Us and NYC, we get the worst of it. Especially because it's only one train separating us!

That's why I'm moving to Canada, for your lack of tourists and for your healthcare! And to further my education, but that's beside the point...

Busloads of tourists of any nationality/race/ethnicity are obnoxious. I have to deal with them constantly when trying to go anywhere in Philly. Hello, please get out of my way, some of us live here and aren't on vacation!

Nails were pink, hair was curly.

I've never gotten anything but understanding and awesome information from the Onondaga people I've met, I never bothered to collect any sort of tribal money because there are kids on the reservations who should definitely have greater access to those funds. The "more Native" argument/conflict is something that happens…

I look more Eastern Bloc (Ukrainian) than anything else, and I have super pale skin and red hair, which doesn't match at all. But, I'm a quarter American Indian, and I am most definitely biracial because of that. I'm also Jewish, super thin, and 5'11". Soooo I am a mixed bag of things that people can't identify.
