batskeetsGod bless the person who invented Teriyaki Chicken! I never get tired of that stuff. :D
So yeah, I had a good lunch, and then went to Art History. One of the sculptures we discussed today was the Ecstasy of St. Theresa, and the story behind that is basically this: she's meditating about God and such, and then an angel comes down and stabs her with "the arrow of divine love," and she says that while it's painful, the pain is so sweet that she doesn't want it to end. And the sculpture's got this dainty little cherub-ish angel smiling all serenely as it's about to stab her with this arrow. Now, is it just me, or does that little religious anecdote seem really, really twisted and messed up? Yet another reason to stick with the non-religious path, IMHO.
I am eating my happy orange, which is wonderfully juicy and tasty today. (the last couple have been a little bland) And I'm trying to figure out when I want to go do the Roman Battle thingy that Meredith is coordinating. I don't have my toga though, b/c I didn't have time to get fabric for it. I'll probably go soon though, as there is nothing particularly pressing here.
