I've been reading The Dante Club and now want to re-read the Divine Comedy. Problem being, my books are in my dad's attic, and not only is my dad not home, I'm also fighting with him.
Today I sent a very cute, cheerful card to him that opens up to say "Just wanted to let you know I'm still mad at you." Passive aggressive R Us! He's going to want to talk about it, but I don't want to talk about it; the only way to make it right is for him to quit being a jerk, and that's not going to happen. Em suggested the card, and if there was a slightly hysterical edge to my laughter, she was kind enough to ignore it.
So. No Dante, because I don't remember which translation we used when I read it at college, and I really liked the translation. I did email the Western Classics professor -- not that he'll remember me, it was nine years ago and I was an average student at best in his class -- but he was a technophobe then and I'll bet he still is.

It'd been cool to be a bird, depending on the type of bird.
