So, I feel much better... I can't say the same for my looks. wink For those just tuning in, I lost my balance in the men's room at Flux last night & somehow I landed a face-plant against their stucco wall. When I exited the restroom, KoS, Buddha and very concerned AlienPrincess thought I had been jumped by hoodlum-ish folk... I didn't explain myself very well...

Hey hun!

Sorry that you kissed the wall. That looks like it seriously hurt, but at least you didn't feel it until later. (Smoke is off the menu here for awhile, but I think that it's gonna be good in the long run. Grumble. Job. Grumble. Lack of job. Grumble.)

Opps sorry about all the grumbles. It still feesl really weird and all. Gah! tongue

My kitty doesn't like to sit on the face, but he does pat you on the face if he feels like you aren't giving him enough attention. It's kinda cute . . . at first. whatever Heehee!

*sympathy kiss and a little "heal up soon" squish*

In my grumbly reckonings with I-Tunes, I rediscovered I had this list of children's book that will never be. This list never got old to the bookstore employees I used to hang with... My fav was always "Daddy Drinks Because You Cry".biggrin

Hey buddy! *squish*

Teehee! I have a crush on Tank Girl now. Does that mean I need the Bi-Curious George book? *giggles* Lucky Charms are the ambrosia of marshmellowy goodness. It's like eating a non-sticky rice crispie treat, BUT WITH MILK! biggrin So yummy!

blush fuzzy purple blush Those are probably going to come down soon, since they were a special treat for any of my friends that were sweet enough to look at all my moss pics. Teehee!

Thanks for the email. I really appreciate it. *even more squish*

Dude, thanks for incredible time tonight, it sure as hell beat sitting at my pad.
I am really sorry for letting you down tonight, i should have had my head where it belonged, looking out for you and the rest of the gang, i feel like i let you down. If you want to let me know if anything happened, please do, i can be cool about it, i just dont want anything to happen next time.

Give the AP a hug for me, and have a great night my brother.

Accursed port forwarding! I'm trying to wrap my limited networking head around how to use it & results has been mixed at best, maddening at worst. mad It seems now that I'm behind the router, ITunes isn't able to breathe the wonder of DSL. I've tried visiting FAQ's and Linksys knowledge bases to no avail. This is the project of the night...well, that and maybe watching...

You know what you are so lucky to be doing the work that you do. Not only because you have kick ass hours but because you get to work with young people and somehow affect their lives.

When I was in high school I used to hang with some boys who lived in a group home. They were badddddd. How do you dea or are they all special interests kids anyway so that they are easier to handle than other kids?

I was a social work major in college and worked at AIDS Care Ocean State for two years. It was OK. I'm not sure I would enjoy doing that type of work again.

Still wowed by speed! I don't think the novelty of DSL will ever get old! biggrin

So, work was. It was a thirteen hour day involving training a relative new-hire and staffed w/ co-worker who sometimes needs as much watchin' as some of the clients. confused At the very least, the weather has stablized enough to melt lots of ice and allow for bike rides & long...

So, we're all networked up for the most part... Between the two of us, we have four computers that'll now have access to checking our comments at the speed of light. wink The next step in my plan is getting AmazonRed13 over here on a regular basis to update... Since she'll have the ability to post from our li'l study, kitchen, bedroom or living room, the...

Well holy fucking shit...I have DSL! *knocks on wood* We received the word that it wouldn't start until the 25th but, I arrived home after housesitting, turned on my tower and there's an unfamiliar green light on my DSL modem. For some strange reason, it was telling me the DSL was working and wouldn't you know, it is! *knocks on wood again* biggrin So, rather than...

Happy poetry day, my pretties... *cackle* shocked

Between slow transits...

Between slow transits
of the pendulum I
dream cats plumply
mopping up spilled sunlight
thinly sliding through
doors left ajar

I coin finches learning
their flight from stones
skipping on water borrowing
color from daffodils
banking their gold in my
memory until spring

I suppose brooks to stop
across going somewhere
in no great hurry
rivulets...

Hanging out at the homestead... I'm having to catch up on paperwork out of the office. Normally I don't have to bring much work home...occaisional after-hours special assignment, research on a speedier connection than the one at work, etc. A huge clot of my office hours has been recently spent hosting a Yale psych student observer. As part of his classwork & thesis-building, this cat...

It's 8:20 in the morning . I'm at my 'rents house gaffing their DSL and having my windshield repaired in the driveway. It's also the third time I've had to wake up early to meet the repairperson...the first two were schedule and order mix-ups. I'd complain but, the cat performing the install was able to knock an additional $50 off of my reapir cost. The...

I've been out-of-sorts for most of today... I normally don't have Fridays off and I haven't been quite sure what to do with myself.

I went to have that pleasant chat w/ our friends down at SBC this morning... whatever Turns out they were trying to sell me another DSL modem with that $150 charge. Little did they know I already own 2! Luckily, since it...

Dee Snider? Is that the Twisted Sister guy? For some reason I got turned off by him ever since he made that horrible movie. It was so bad I don't even remember the name of it. puke

Happy Valentine's Day, President's Day, and Trifon Zarezan (Bulgarian Wine Grower's Day) to you and AlienPrincess. So, raise a glass in a toast to all of those lovely Bulgarians who sacrifice their lives to bring us a little happiness in a bottle.

Glad to hear that the SBC thing worked out, that you've got mega memory for your camera (that card will be a real help in Ireland!), and that you're surrounded by good people, music and movies! Bollywood epics...YES! Have a GREAT weekend.

Didn't make it to the post office yesterday...lots going on, and forgot that Monday is a holiday, so Mr. Eno will be making his way to you on Tuesday.

Pictures from Flux are offically posted... The entire series was taken playfully exposed and lit. My mindset at the time was, "Hmmm, I wonder what kind of lighting effects chandelliers give off..?" confused Now you know and knowing's half the battle! Looking forward to making Flux a semi-regular affair. KoS & I were talking about setting a day that corresponds two weeks after Bound, since that...

love the pictures - very cool. as for the cable folk mad i had a little midnight rendesvous with the cable rep last night which consisted of me going what could only be described as buck wild on them. my lesson for class this morning was being held hostage by the evil corporate melange!!

love the poetry piece - so beautiful - lovely imagery. i really like it when the "heart" in all is referent glory is tweaked. mechanistics indeed.
