Read about Thomas Stevens! He’s a little penny-farthing freak who travelled across the globe on his penny-farthing. Thought it was super interesting how he just kept getting captured but people were so hyped about the idea of him travelling that they all ended up letting him go. He also had a little gun and thats pretty cool.
Tried experimenting with wearing a leather jacket I’ve had for years. Turns out layering a bunch under it makes it still wearable even when its comically cold outside.
Did an ab workout with my friend that’s left me in pain all week. I still wince when I stretch my stomach life is a bit painful.
Got Sylvia Plath’s posthumous poetry collection ‘Ariel’! Haven’t read much yet but got it on the suggestion of a buddy. Like what I’ve read so far! No Lord Byron collections at the book store I go to I’ll have to wait for it to come in ;-;
‘Reapers Gale’ is still hitting all the right spots. Toc the Younger came back and he is a fucking loser! I love him. His first scene back is him covered in shit and period blood screaming about how this is a perfect ground for a poet. AND also repeating a epigraph from the start of ‘Deadhouse Gates’???? How cool can a one-eyed loser be??? Ublala Pung came back too!! His scene with Toc and Bugg had me cackling the trio is back.
