The other day I noticed the hazelnuts I was eating were from Turkey.  Then I spent the next three hours at work imagining I was a Trojan warrior that totally was not working on excel reports (I was).

I also joined Twitter recently, as you can see towards the right.

These two things, put together, made me laugh at this.  It’s if Homer’s Odyssey was written on twitter.  Heart.

I love epic poems, I was so obsessed with Xena I read the Illiad when I was twelve, and even memorized a bit of it to impress my grandma. This, however, is a post for a different night.

O.o

Hazelnuts from Turkey make you think that you are a Trojan warrior? I think you’ve got several other things on your hands there.

Darn, I feel like Amber right now…

I just read that thing you linked to and it is hilarious.

Hazelnuts->Turkey->Troy->Trojan Warrior. It’s not THAT much of a stretch!

Somehow the idea of Trojan warriors sitting around eating hazelnuts kind of kills the masculinity of the image for me.

As for the other…. Yeah, that pretty much sums up Twitter to my mind.
