My capacity for dawdling in the face of deadlines is truly epic. Why does everything frivolous seem much more fun when you have some actual work you have to do?

Yay, I'm feeling mostly better. And the sun is shining and I think I'm gonna go a-skippin' in the park. Or something equaly active and frivilous.
But now that the winter of of my discontent is looking like it's at an end, it's also time to get to work. i've been more or less resting on my laurels--which are rather scanty anyway and don't merit...

ryan:
thank you for coming out to meet my girls, yo! they are a huge part of my life and that meant a lot to me! xoxo
The sickness continues. I've been sick for three weeks now, which is not helping my occaisonal struggles against depression any. And it's just sooooo unjust. Why me? Why me, lord? What have I done to offend you? Other than in sinning and profaning your name and generally not believing in you?

The thought of you running in fear from a chicken is damn near hysterical. 
lx:
Please get better. OK? There's no sense in being sick!
I did something today that I'd been meaning to do but felt rather nervous about. And for my trouble got told that she "was flattered". Man, that phrase is like the kiss of death.
Still it feels good to have laid it on the line, even if it smarts a bit. A coward dies a thousand death deaths, as the man says.

you're sick too?! so am I and everyone I know. Long time no see, man. You should come to The 3rd Floor's closing night party on Saturday and we can catch up. We miss you at Sinferno 
Out of the Bell Jar and into the fire--or that's the way it seems sometimes. OK, I'm back and ready to be social. (In an internetty kinda way.)
Tonight I'll be going to the Cherry Tarts burlesque show--I've been promised some "sexy Lepruchan action" from Nixon herself, so this better be good!

Come on give us something.
I'm back in for Chicago for a week on business. Not a bad deal--I work full time this week and get a free trip home to see friends and family. I only wish I felt better. I've got no good reason for it but I'm tired and easily frustrated and it seems hard to keep despairing thoughts from swirling around the corners of my brain....

A busy social schedule I've had lately. Haqd a good party on V-Day--I partied hard with various luminaries of the SG PDX crew and made a midnight appearance as a rather teamster-like Cupid. (Anyone curious about that ca check out the photos in "pics"--they're pretty damn funny, IMHO.)
Now I have to get moving on those plans for world domination. (Or Portland domination, at the...

lobster! lobster! i'm a lobster!
louise:
i can't ever really be good at piano, anyway, on account of these two pointy little lobster claws i have.
Bleh, I'm sick. I've been having hot and cold flashes for two days. (I think it might be menopause.) Anyway, I am doing nothing, resting up and hoping to recover in time to rip it up at my party this Saturday.
pilar:
what par-T? am I invitied?
ryan:
get some rest... i just slept 12 hours. i feel kinda better. still in some sort of surreal realm where i don't quite understand my thoughts... i'm goin to pirate for a few tonite to give me a little social event where i'm actually not working, as the case with tuesdays and saturdays... and there's parties abound this weekend too... so i'm sure come monday i will be rearin to go for another five weeks!!!
Drunk hotties at the V.C. encouraged me and my friend Angie to do shots and then invited us dancing with them to Lola's. So we went! And fun was had. It wasn't a mind-bending bachhanal, but a fun, moderately adventurous evening anyway. Angie said I was a good dancer, which is nice because I usually assume I look like a fool.

HAHA! Menopause! Man, I had a stupid sinus cold last week and I thought it was gone so I went out and drank and smoked on Thursday and Friday and by Saturday I was dyin' Fever, cold sweats, sore throat the whole deal.
I am resting and mending as to be sure to attend the party.

One of the things I really like about inner SE Portland is I can always hear the sounds of the trains at night. There's something mysterious and comforting at the same time about hearing the low moan of a train horn while you're lying in bed.
