I temporarilly lost the cord that powers this little box of evil, the neurotic in me is always vaugley tense imagining I'm missing all sorts of important communications. I return and realize that I have missed nothing. Maybe Europe will kill off this evil addiction.

Is anyone else annoyed with the changes? Lots and lots of bugs it seems, as if I was only half logged in, I miss the old days when the background was pink.

And I am so jealous!!! You got a ride from Mary?!! You lucky dog you!!

I suppose I must make the obligatory blog from the airport. My flight home, to San Jose leaves in twenty minutes, and I can't help but feel that it's a shame I'm leaving today, because the weather is absolutely stunning, everything is green and smells fresh. I pray I can find my way up to Marin county, it would seem wine and cheese tasting in...

Lucky, lucky boy! A Mexican punkrocker! Muy caliente.
I have no flavor of the month, unfortunately...although I hooked up with the guy who sits on my right, and then a week later with the guy who sits on my left. And they're friends. And I'm afraid it's going to get awkward. Bummer, really, since I'm not the awkward type, so it certainly doesn't have to be that way.

Crush me, won't you?
Things feel a bit haunted; the sunshine a little too bright, veiling the fog that seems to have settled here. I can't tell you what's wrong. but it's something outside of me.
Someone tell me it's all going to be fine, because I'm not sure anymore.

It will all be fine, I promise. Life has a way of working itself out. Whatever it is, will pass, somehow......I don't think I've ever offered before, but if you want to talk about something, I'll listen...

I am going home for Easter, being home is always fills me with aprehension and mixed feelings. It always serves as a reminder, so I know again why I moved to Oregon. It's also weird as I, along with my sisters revert to more childish ways. On the oither hand, I get to see my grandparents, who I adore. I am cooking them a four...

i'm not a fan of curry but i bet i know where to get a good one - brick lane, it's the curry district. i am willing to sit and watch you eat, hopefully they also serve glasses of water, i'll have that instead.

Where, oh where are you?
What happens when irony ceases to be and becomes a serious, straightforward thing? Someone once said to me in reference to the obnoxious UK Hard House I was spinning when I was a DJ that a thing is over when it parodies itself. Isn't Irony that parody? When Irony becomes serious, it's a sort of irony of it's own, a parody of the parody. Sometimes...

Things happen so fast, all of this, everything I see will be so far that it will barely exist. I will me this place. I will miss these peope. I only wish I had met them sooner.
For the first time, I am afraid of my rusty flamethrowers, of my burnt out torches. Why?

Oh yes, leg warmers and tights are all the rage, I may decide to jump on the bandwagon because I've actually kept the legwarmers that I wore in the '80s as a child. Just one of those things that I never threw out.....along with my Rainbow Brite blanket.......

ugh, sorry i didn't call last night. i went with the rinster to get pad thai then came home and passed out on the couch around 9. i don't think i've done that since high school. and i slept ALL day today. jeez. i'm leaving the house to get fresh air. are you working tonight? probably. i'll be up late if you wanna call. otherwise let me know when would be a good time.
Ok, sorry about that. I am out of the funky hole (whole?). I am still employed, my friends are still astounding, my cats are still adorable -- what right do I have to complain? My finger is healing beautifully, courtesy of neosporin and latex gloves. My hand should be back to normal (minus a few nerve endings) by the end of the week, I just...

I am in a funk, a serious funk. Yestreday was epicly exhausting. I am terrified about my job, I met a friend for coffee who works at one of Bruce's (the new owner) other restaurants, and he keeps his ear to the ground. I find that massive staffing restructuring will happen in the kitchen and my "meeting" with Bruce tommorow is in essence a job...

durka durka..... haha. I think I came across you in the beat group, or one of the writing groups. Oh, I know EXACTLY what you are going through. It seems like the entire world is in transition. I had all of my plans fall at my feet and there was nothing I could do about it. So, I am living completely on my instincts, and just last night, after a few months of total freak out, I feel like I am exactly where I need to be. Unemployed, yes, settling into a new home, yes, but, things are looking up. Just don't forget that things will change, and they will get better. Hang with your friends, have fun tonight, laugh lots. It's the best thing for you at the moment.

where are you gonna go? Everyone I know seems to be moving to Portland right now. And you're leaving...what are you doing in Portland? My job hunt is going pretty good...I start cocktailing at a blues bar next week, I was offered a job at an organic caf today, and my good friend of mine has offered me a job at the local organic market...I have a few choices to make. AND I just jumped onto a film project, which won't pay for a few years, but it's worth it to me. So, life is good and looking up in a big way. 
I be so happy right now.
