the Dalaverse

Well, that was pretty much the best class ever. I got to sink my claws into Paris, for one thing.

(general discussion of Helen's characteristics)
Brian: Well, she seems to nag Paris a lot --
Dala: THAT'S BECAUSE PARIS IS A WUSS! Who'll do it if she doesn't?!

And then later I called him a stupid whore. Also was the only one in class to defend Helen, managing to be coherent about it and actually make some sense instead of vaguely prattling. And we discussed more of the Civil War parallels, and I understand Achilles much better than I did in Wilson's class.

Nice slow day tomorrow, thank goodness. Although I do have to wear a bathing suit to sailing, as we're doing capsizing drills. Only thing that worries me is the jellyfish, but mostly I've seen them closer to shore.
