SCORE TIME!

Mostly "a" answers means that you are Felice Bauer. On the bright side, you were Kafka's first AND third fiancee. The only downer is that he used to tell you that "coitus" was "punishment for being together" and sniped at you for not being smart enough to understand his greaty-weatest writing of the 20th Century or whatever. Kafka will knock up your best friend. You will forgive him, and her, for some reason. You will eventually move on, but not before being immortalized as all manner of dysfunctional, mercurial, heinous charicature of a woman in many works of literature.

Mostly "b" answers means that you are Milena Jesenka, you hot little minx. Ooh, you're turning me on already. Milena was so hot. Pros: explosive, intellectually-charged hot fire. Cons: your husband, lots of fights. Your searing impression on Kafka's psyche will only be marginally as important as your successful translations of his work into the native language of his hometown. Man, you're hot. Let's do it.

Mostly "c" answers means that you are Dora Diamant, giant-gummed, enigmatic, nubile. The good part is that you are the only person Kafka was ever truly happy with. The bad part is that you have to watch him croak. And then there were those decades in the Gulag. And all that writing you burned. But you didn't know any better, really.

Well, ladies, there you have it. My advice to you: next time, try to go for someone with healthy lungs and a father who didn't touch/berate his butthole.

ASTERISK A totally low-tech quiz that does not earn you any points toward crap. For that, try my job.

      My friend Adam got me a label maker for my birthday. Much to the regret of reasonable people everywhere.

    The Road to Heartburn

    • View of "Coyote Party" hill
      I managed to get through my first quarter as a PhD student at UCI unscathed, except for what I have decided with my ultimate medical expertise is Acid Reflux disease. I could probably curtail the searing heartburn I get nightly if I also curtailed caffeine, alcohol and tomato-based products, but THAT IS CRAZY TALK. Anyway, this photo "albumlette" is very short because my life here is pretty uneventful. Sorry.
