Typical Dinner Chat
Today I experienced a return to my free-wheeling days of the past: I had no reason to leave the building. In fact, if it wasn't for my laundry (and my dad's towels) I wouldn't have left the apartment.
After hours of rummaging through my father's refrigerator and enjoying Star Trek reruns, Dad returned from wherever he went and we had dinner at a local Indian restaurant. Considering how much I love Indian food, it's hard to believe that just ten years ago I never would have touched the stuff. Of course, there's a lot of things I didn't touch ten years ago that I enjoy touching today, but that's a story best told in private.
We spent nearly two hours at the table and had quite an enjoyable conversation on European colonization and body piercing. Concerning the latter, Dad and I are both of the opinion that the practice is kind of freaky. I'm personally hoping that the trend evolves to the point where kids start wearing rings around their necks like in tribal Africa. I figure all it will take is for MTV to air a National Geographic special and all those little automatons will rush out and stretch their necks. Is that any more ludicrous than, say, labial piercing? It certainly won't hurt as much or need months of healing, and the younger you start, the faster you see results!
