Installments about my Friends

I am doing a series of posts based on a question I asked my friends, “what object represents you?” I hope they will still want to be my friends after I have shared the results with you, Internet! The first one goes live March 10.

I think, though it may be a bit big headed, I’d like to say that I can be represented by a book.

Have you read Borges’ short story, The Book of Sand? It’s an amazing piece of work. Someone has made a web game based on it, but I think it is more fun if you have read the story first. This is the book of sand game.

I have one installment that uses books for the image, although it is more about laws than books: http://secretvespers.com/2007/09/03/technicalities/

Anyway, here is the book installment: http://secretvespers.com/2008/06/06/open-book/
It will become visible sometime tomorrow (on June 6, 2008 depending on where you live).

I think I would be best represented by a picture of a big pink heart. with some math equation on it !

I’ve asked this question, and been told a globe or a model solar system would be represent me. I don’t know why though…

Have you ever seen those mechanical solar system models, orreries? I used one as inspiration for today’s installment: http://secretvespers.com/2008/07/05/orreries/

A bowl of homemade vegetable beef soup. It’s a warm and comforting blend of different things. A lil meaty, a lil corny. It can burn if you’re not careful, but if you take it slowly and avoid the icky lima beans, you just might like it!

A bed. Something to sprawl on when it’s too hot to bear and something whose comforters to snuggle under when it’s too cold.

Not as sexual as it sounds
