Gilgamesh, part 2

I finished Gilgamesh, and Gilgamesh was fun. Perhaps I have read just a few too many heroic poems, but everything seemed to flow pretty much the way it was supposed to, and it wasn't nearly as long as Homer. This particular version does imply a very intimate relationship between Gilgamesh and Enkidu, but there are only a few lines that really imply they were sleeping with each other.

Other than that, today has been a fairly normal sort of day, with work, the gym, and dinner, with nothing terribly extraordinary about any of them.
