I have this really visceral, negative reaction to slavery that I didn't have before going back to undergrad. Not to say I was pro-slavery before; c'mon. But having read both 3rd person and 1st person accounts more in depth, I have a more emotional response to it than I did.

Playing Fable II (a completely ridiculous game that I will write more about later), there was a scene where you can make a choice between freeing captive slaves or selling them to a slaver. I guess there was some kind of plot information or something in what the slaver says. I don't know, because as soon as he suggested I sell him the key to the slave cages, I shot him in the face mid-sentence.

I seem to be well on my way to, just like yesterday, eating like a three-year old for most of the day. I bought a giant Twix egg on post-Easter discount yesterday and just consumed the whole thing. It was ok; about as good as the unimpresive Cadbury Egg cookies I ate a box of yesterday.
