The Kat House

What a night! I never thought I’d be able to have so much fun in a literature class! Company means everything, and I had some of the best. I don’t think anyone has ever made me laugh as much as Dan has. I tried to tell him the parable of the Camel and the Needle, but it was pointless. I got all tongue-tied and started laughing. Thanks a lot, Dan! And imagine the laughter when our professor started talking about the Romans and their use of architectural columns as conscious phallic symbols. She said that they would even hang drawings of phalluses on the columns sometimes, as sort of a “mine is bigger than yours” statement. I could barely contain my laughter when a student asked what a phallus is. The professor replied that it is a “large erect penis”, and I could hold my laughter no longer. Another student mentioned something about morning wood. What a crazy night! Oh, and I suffered from a severe Freudian slip! I told Dan that he had an assignment to write a poem for me by next Wednesday. He said, “How long does it have to be?” to which I replied, “the longer the better”. As soon as those words came out of my mouth, I regretted them. How embarrassing! I really didn’t mean for that statement to come across as sexual in nature. Don’t you just hate it when that happens? LOL. To top the night off, I got walked to my car by a big handsome football player. Oh, and last but not least, I received a lovely compliment in Italian, which from what I understand, means “You are as beautiful as the light from the stars”. How sweet. Life is great sometimes.
