Where did she go?
Where have I been? Oh, around. Watching lots of documentaries actually and taking time away from the computer. Studying my criminal investigations textbook quite a bit too (gotta love learning about homocide and decomposition
).
There's only so much time a person can devote to researching fish. hehe
The documentaries I've watched lately, in case anyone is interested, were:
- "Overnight" - about Troy Duffy, a megalomaniac and the scriptwriter of "Boondock Saints"
- "Country Boys" - a 3-part series about a couple of boys growing up in Appalachia
- "Sherman's March" - originally intended to be about the civil war, it wound up being a documentary about women
- "Devil's Playground" - about Amish teens and their Rumspringa
- "The Devil and Daniel Johnston" - about the 'Hi, how are you?' guy and his mental breakdown
I also watched "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" for the first time and season one of "Dexter." "Sweeney Todd" is the next flick waiting to be viewed.
In the event that I become bored with documentaries, the following books are on order:
- The Politics of Reality by: Marilyn Frye
- On Liberty and the Subjection of Women by: John Stuart Mill
- The Gender Knot: Unraveling Our Patriarchal Legacy by: Allan G. Johnson
- The Heart of the Buddha's Teaching by: Thich Nhat Hanh
So yeah, keeping entertained over here. None of that pertains to pets obviously, but I strive to be a well-rounded individual.


Aside from the Buddha book, the rest have been worthwhile reads. Particularly "The Gender Knot." ;)
