I Pantaloni

In a fit of madness, and a shameless copycat of jacob, I have added another to the list of websites I will rarely update. The gimmick with this one is that it’s in Italian — or something not entirely unlike Italian, at least. My plan is to update that livejournal more frequently and with less interesting (if you can believe it) stuff than this one — you know, real “what I had for lunch today” type updates.

If you’re interested in the minutae of my life, or in Italian, why not take a look over there and criticize my obvious lack of confidence and ability with the language and ongoing faltering over even the simplest grammatical constructions.

Also: As soon as I get around to getting myself an hour alone with Illustrator, I’ll be posting a mix cd I made a few months ago. I post this message mostly to inspire myself to make time for that hour.

On Flowers and Women

Beautiful women are better than flowers because they understand human language, and flowers are better than beautiful women because they give off fragrance; but if one cannot have both at the same time, he should forsake the fragrant ones and take the talking ones.
