Today I saw Sam’s house and pub. The pub was pretty old. Like whoa. I got to flip through a copy of his dictionary. Apparently “boob” wasn’t a word back then.
Seeing Johnson’s living space helps a little in understanding the man and through this makes his writings a little more meaningful. To get a real understanding however, I suspect I should require to read his biography.
Maybe I’ll try to write like Johnson in the journal. That might be fun, though difficult, yet, what joy or felicity can be derived from actions such that require no effort of mind or lib?
Johnson was probably fat because the pub he frequented had such good food, especially the pie.
I should try to think of some words that would sound really funny if spoken w/ a British accent and then ask natives to say them. Hmm… can’t think of any right now… we’ll come back to that.
We found a store called Poon.
Ok, I’m getting too random. Mike and I are going to see Guys and Dolls tonight so we’re going to be going to the theater soon. Maybe I’ll think of something substantial to write about on the way there.
Nope.
