torn between wanting to stay and wanting to go and worried it will be the wrong decision either way

so i'm at the hotel (motel, holiday inn...hope someone got that...) ANYWAY. sitting here with the rents trying to not think of everything i'm missing and just the stuff that's about to happen. move in starts tomorrow at 9. i've been texting my roommate tonight and she seems cool. i'll keep ya'll updated hopefully sometime soon. love and miss everyone :)

i think we all know the right answer

Ode to a new life.

"It's...
Colder than the nipple on a witch's tit!
Colder than a bucket of penguin shit!
Colder than the hairs of a polar bear's ass!
colder than the frost on a champagne glass!"

That charming little diddy is from Thomas Pynchon's "Gravity's Rainbow" who actually is a Cornell alum so he would know about that kind of cold. Oddly enough I didn't know that until after I had bought the book but as you can imagine I was even more excited. Anyway I'm sharing it with you #1 because its funny to see things like this in classic literature and #2 because I never thought about the fact that penguins deficated before; kind of like how men don't think attractive women go poop
