What the post-breakup mantra of "Just keep moving" will get ya on a Friday night:

-excellent homemade Thai food
-army boys and nostalgia
-a discussion on whether men can be raped and the astute, TMI observation: "That's not the only way a man can be violated, you know."
-pondering the racial, political, and cultural ramifications of four "Southeast Asian woman-American GI" couples
-conversation with a drunk 38-year-old Japanese man who looks about 27
-conversation with a 31-year-old Taiwanese woman (who looks 25) about social hierarchy and the status of women in Korea
-discovery of Powderfinger, a band
-sleeping next to (chastely! dang, your minds are dirty) a former sheep shearer (yes, I'm serious), after said former sheep shearer politely offered me floss (yes, I'm serious about that too), which I gladly took (no, the floss is not a symbol for anything else)

No school for 10 days! Whee!
