what are you into right now?

It is light, citris-y and refreshing. Also, grapefruit but not at all bitter.

local history
~ghost tours~ (related)
reading bad reviews of new ben elton shows
orange dark chocolate

music that is fun and playful but still engaging/not disposable or novel (e.g. Deerhoof, Pavement, Mouse on Mars, Mu, The B-52's, etc)

I'm really into cacao nibs right now, so much so that I carry a little bag with me

like you just eat them plain? I imagine it would be like crunchy unsweetened cocoa powder.

i dunno how you do it, goon -- to me they're like crunching on broken cocoa-flavored teeth

absolutely worshiping yet utterly despising the Maldives

could you elaborate on this?

i want to go there so badly but its 30-35 hrs travel time each way and a roundtrip ticket is approx $5000pp ie $20K for us just to get there. Cant imagine what a sweet hut on the water would add to that.

i dream of going to fiji so feelin u

Two of my friends who live in England went to the Maldives for their honeymoon. I think it's shorter than that travel time wise from there but not by much. I'm pretty sure it took them a full day to finally get to their island. They did have one of those sweet huts on the water and the pictures are AMAZING. They were there for two weeks and said that by the end it started to get a little boring because there's literally nothing to do except lie around, take walks and go in the water but I guess you don't really want to fly that long to get somewhere and then leave a week later. Anyway, yeah, I want to go too.

there must be a cheaper way to get from the usa to the maldives, quick google says from £560 return from london

Yeah, I knew it was cheaper to fly from England cause those two are not loaded by any means. I think travel in general is cheaper from the UK. We don't really have anything like you guys do in terms of budget airlines and stuff. There are cheaper ones but not cheap cheap like you get over there.

i found tix for less than 2,000 sunny. you'd have to order in advance though: https://www.google.com/flights/#search;f=MDW,ORD;t=MLE;d=2013-10-09;r=2013-10-15;sel=ORDAUH0EY150-AUHCMB1EY266-CMBMLE2UL101;q=cheap+flights

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/Maldives_treemap.png/615px-Maldives_treemap.png

their export markets are....not diverse

even cheaper if you fly from LA https://www.google.com/flights/#search;f=LAX;t=MLE;d=2013-10-09;r=2013-10-15;sel=LAXNRT0MH93-NRTKUL1MH93-KULMLE2MH177;q=cheap+flights

the lowest temperature ever recorded in malé is 25c/77f

i think i would rather visit somewhere in polynesia/melanesia etc but maldives would be nice too

Wow nice work clouds. Thx! Given the opportunity I'm happy to be in the water 24/7.

Oh me too.

yeah a friend of mine got married in the maldives a couple of years ago - I was kind of annoyed because 90% of her talking about her wedding was about the travelling and I was like >:( idk care how long it took, TELL ME ABOUT THE HUTS ON THE WATER

Got some Brideshead Revisited burnt next but having trouble converting it, not working with what I have been using for the last couple of months.
