Blessed are the peacemakers, especially the fighting peacemakers.

    All I really have to say today is this: Don't rain on my parade.  Today has thus far been excellent in many categories, and I am currently reveling in that.  I anticipate reveling to continue for some time while I occupy myself with various hobbies I have had to replace with college activity, but it was all temporary.  Hooray!  

    And I've decided that I kind of like Melville, even if that white whale business was all very nihilist and depressing and somewhat long-winded.  "Billy Budd" is interesting, despite Herman's best efforts.

Enjoy your weekend! :D
