2. i made an awesome soup.

3. i FINALLY got accepted to a graduate program. which, even though i might not go to it, feels pretty great.

The Cranberries came by the office today. They played Zombie and everyone was really excited except for the kids born in 1995.

Mobs lynched Mary Turner on May 17, 1918 in Lowndes County. Georgia because she vowed to have those responsible for killing her husband arrested. Her husband was arrested in connection with the shooting and killing Hampton Smith, a white farmer for whom the couple had worked, and wounding his wife. Sidney Johnson. a Black, apparently killed Smith because he was tired of the farmer’s abuse. Unable to find Johnson. the killers lynched eight other Blacks Including Hayes Turner and his wife Mary. The mob hanged Mary by her feet, poured gasoline and oil on her and set fire to her body. One white man sliced her open and Mrs. Turner’s baby tumbled to the ground with a “little cry” and the mob stomped the baby to death and sprayed bullets into Mary Turner.

whenever it’s summer, i want it to be winter…

…and whenever it’s winter, i want it to be summer.

i’m waiting to hear back from grad schools right now and it’s kind of crazy to think that in two months my life will be totally different. i’ll either be admitted or i won’t be. i’ll be getting ready to move and go to scms in boston and reunions and iceland (hopefully).

oh by the way, jen got accepted to minnesota’s anthropology phd program! toot toot!
