Mango pickle is something that doesn't look anywhere near as good as it is.

Wake up at 5:15am, go to bed at 8:pm, wake up at 1am = recipe for sitting on your bed at 3:30am eating curry and reading dooce.

Today I met the most infuriating person I have ever encountered in my entire life. I wanted to punch him within about 30 seconds of being near him, and after dealing with his stupid crap for about 5 minutes I told him to "use your fucking brain man", in some kind of survival-instinct attempt to get him to shut the fuck up. EAS el-Presidente-Numero-Uno AngryDon almost made with the Angry after being called "bro" about seven times too many. Don reiterated that his name was indeed "Don", and "fucking cockhead" parroted "yeah, so like Dooooooooooooon" ~making some kind of faux-homie gangsign~.

Don turned and stared.

I swear I could see his brain calculating the vector required for the most impressive meeting of forehead and nose ever witnessed outside the Red Room.

It didn't happen, so disappointing.

There must be some kind of math which can work out when you're likely to wake up if you go to bed at a certain time. Feed it your sleep data for the last week, it tells you how much blessed, blessed slumber you're going to get if you try to fall asleep right now. Not that it would work for me, my biological clock seems to be of the dali persuasion.

I'm not sure, but when ducky gets back I wouldn't be surprised if I wasn't allowed to eat curry in bed anymore.

Actually, I can totally prevail on the curry-in-bed thing, I think in the time we've been together shes dropped enough food in my bed to feed a medium-sized squirrel, if the squirrel would expand its diet to include things like ox-tail soup.

More on the bed thing - since Jade left my bed has been accruing random stuff. I think in some kind of hindbrain attempt to create for myself a surrogate bed-partner-dummy so my unconscious mind doesn't realise that the being who should be next to me is actually very much not next to me. At the moment my bed contains:
Myself
Mylaptop
Three normal sized pillows (I only actually use one while sleeping)
One super sized pillow, made by the Mum
Doona complete with sexy Peter Alexander clouds cover. I don't think I've actually used this thing for warmth in about 4 months
120000ccs of randomized clothing - a mixture of stuff I have been or am likely to wear, and stuff that I haven't worn and am unlikely to wear for ages, to add bulk.
Four customs declaration stickers
One black sheet
A CDROM for one of my uni courses, cased
A camera tripod
Of course all of this stuff looks, feels, tastes and smells nothing like Jade, but I don't think my hindbrain is smart enough to notice or even care. I'm just glad that its let me put the 60cm foam cube somewhere else.

I've just done some of my own arbitrary sleep-calculus calculations, and I'm pretty certain that there is no way I'm getting to sleep now. It's not going to stop me from trying though.

After reading the 26/3 entry, I am concerned about your mental status. Please seek help @ student health block. Cognitive therapy does wonders.
Where's the mind expanding conversation about art that I paid $2 for (comment about 'rich bastard' unnecessarily sarcastic).

I have already studied art and art history @ university level - so wtf boys???

If you're looking for the EAS website you should probably go to EASWorld.org. Jaymis.com is my personal site.

I'm sure someone who's already studied art and art history at university level was aware of that though, and that this comment on a personal site was just some incredibly clever joke. Right?

I thought so.

Just in case I thought incorrectly though, www.easworld.org is the EAS site. www.easworld.org/forums/ is the place to go for conversations about things. I don't remember "mind expanding" being part of the EAS charter, but if that's what you're looking for then I'm sure you'll find it.

If you're concerned about my mental status after reading this entry, well I think your mind is definitely in need of some expanding.

OKay, I cant stand it any longer. What the hell is a MANGO PICKLE!!
Jaymis is sane, well, as in sane as a person in love can be. I've heard that many doctors do consider love a mental disorder.
I am also a little concerned that you consider a site with "JAYMIS" across the background, at jaymis.com an electronic arts society webpage. Have you used the internet before? Surely there would be more on the page that says something about EAS other than a link to the forum. Maybe even some logos from the University as well?

Mango Pickle is a spicy pickle style condiment made with green mangos. Generally damn spicy. The Pataks mango pickle is even spicier than the chilli pickle that they unfortunately no longer make. Mmmm, that chilli pickle was awesome. I've never found another one that tastes anywhere near as good. All of the others seem to have too much of a vinegar taste to them.

That's a pretty good mango pickle recipe.

Lime pickles are also really yummy, and usually a lot less spicy:

If Sammi decides to come back we can ask them about their logic in deciding that my site is somehow the EAS. I'm guessing that it's similar logic to those who keep posting comments asking me to cancel their 3 day trial with a porn site because their wife is going to find out, or the people who comment asking for advice about anal polyps.
