Back... hurts... blah...

Today is the Agonalia, a day to honor various divinities. A ram was sacrificed by the rex sacrificulus. The ceremonies were supposed to help improve the prosperity of the state.

I was roused at 7 AM this morning and after a quick bagel, egg, and cheese sandwich I was hauled down to Brandeis to help Shrewd clean out her room. We packed up the car to the brim with her things, plus her roommate's fridge which was going to be thrown out. All the seniors were moving out at the same time, and since they were all going to different situations next year, they were throwing out a lot of their stuff, when it was still in good condition. Thus, Shrewd and I went dumpster-diving. I mean, what would you do?

We got dish ware, mostly, and a TV table and some black plastic stacking storage boxes. There was a LOT of stuff, though. Lots of booze. Shrewd was tempted to grab some but we decided that there was really very little on this earth that's sketchier than taking someone else's half-empty bottles of alcohol from the trash...

Mmm, yeah. Who knows what's really in those bottles?
