Listening to Sleater-Kinney, thinking about doing housework, but choosing internet instead. Just finished the first cuppa coffee, better go make another shot of watered-down espresso. I need to write up a couple homework massages today, I already did 'em on Saturday. Need to call to confirm new catering jobs. And, TAXES. Oh God. I've been putting it off to the side of my mind for...

It being Holy Week, and all, here's a Psalm for ya. Kind of a nature Psalm. I love the poetry of it. It is attributed to David.

--29--

Ascribe to the Lord, O divine beings,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
Ascribe to the Lord the glory of His name;
bow down to the Lord, majestic in holiness.

The voice of the Lord is...

Hello everybody. Haven't been able to write much here, because I am really busy with work and school. This semester is the hump. Really, the next couple months. Then it should be downhill until I get done in February, '07.

Thank God it is spring, tho.

Not much to say today. I have to get to work soon. But first, I gotta hear more Led...

Anybody out there need a house to rent on Capitol Hill in DC, or know anybody that needs one? I got one for ya.

Listened to Morrisey's new album streamed from his myspace site today. Sounded good. Of a piece w/ his other work. Too soon to tell how much I will like it after a few listens, but definitely deserves repeated plays.

Happy Friday.

School is challenging. Learning the academic stuff is hard enough, but integrating that into practice, doing a good massage incorporating your new knowledge of anatomy, and getting it all choreographed right, and making it flow, is harder than it might seem. I just have to trust the process.

It is spring, but it is freezing here. It actually got colder, it seems.

Lotta work today. One step at a time. Gotta run.

Hello SG Land. After not working enough over the weekend, now I have to get crackin'. After I write a little bit here... Among other things, this site ranks near the top of my list of procrastination aids. My favorite waste of time. Not that y'all are a waste of time. Heavens, no. But maybe if you are reading this, you know what I mean?...

I'm not a quote guy, but I stumbled across this one yesterday, and it almost made me cry.

"I would not give a fig for the simplicity this side of complexity, but I would give my life for the simplicity on the other side of complexity." -- Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

Although I feel like I could write books on this theme, I have little...

Hello. Well, I don't type in this journal all that much, do I? The Costa Rica trip went fine, altho it was more or less the end of the line w/ Marisol. Long-distance relationships rarely last long. International ones, even worse. Each day I get a little better in Spanish, tho. Today I watched Maria, Llena Eres de Gracia, which if you haven't seen it,...

Hello again. I have had a week of houseguests, which has been fun. A bit too much recreating at this point, tho. But I am grateful to have friends who will come and visit me. Otherwise life gets lonely.

Going to Costa Rica on Sunday, to see my girlfriend there. We have been sort of together for about ten months, but almost all of that...
