I started re-reading Fitzgerald’s translation of The Odyssey recently. As I was trolling around Goodreads I came across this sorta cute comment from a young reader…

I ended up loving this book once it was finished. I gave it 4 stars only because it was quite difficult to read. It read like a poem and then like the Bible with the “who knows who and who is related to whom”.

The story takes place after the Trojan War. Odysseus has been captured and missing for many years. Odysseus’s wife is in mourning and refuses to marry another man. In the meantime, Odysseus’s son, Telemarkhos, believes that his father is alive and sets out to find him.

I’m enjoying reading it too.

My favorite place to hang out is having a craft show on Sunday August 3. I’ll have to find out what time, but I suspect it’s during the day. I’ve seen some of the work that’ll be there and I think it’ll be pretty good.

It makes me pretty happy that the Caffetto crew are doing this. Since I moved to Whittier/East Lowry Hill, I find that I want everything I do here to be interesting and new, while allowing me to roam about the same corner all weekend.

This week’s flowers

rbrown — Sun, 11 May 2008 00:50:33 +0000

Just about every week I buy some flowers from my favorite grocery store, The Wedge. Problem is I don’t know squat about flowers, and have shown very little aptitude for understanding nature, despite growing up taking classes at the Arboretum in Richmond, IN, various environmentalism classes in Middle School and High School, being a boyscout, camping, etc, etc. It’s my goal to come to be able to identify the flowers, which I buy, because… I think they’re pretty. So, if you happen to know what this is, feel free to let me know, impovrished ‘though I am.
