SMASH THIS ROOM AS AN ISLAND,

picture everything in
terms of husbands and wives, absolutes and nothings. Get away
from her, you crawling fiend! She has a right

to grin. Well,
dry me up and crush my arms. If you
would toss this guy off the plank >
if I could sail you through time and space. Snappy
looking dish. I can get

new arms....

O Holy Goddess
of the Photocopy Machine,
Fecund Femme, Mistress of Duplication,

I invoke thy toner.

Soul that copies black and white faces on paper
(heavy paper, heavy),
fresh out of the shower, would you dance?

Can I leap on you as the sheets fall on the rug?
(Fellow electricians,
Ill kiss her twice, to duplicate everything.

Bounce/ Bang and the bells of immaculate curve,...

I wish my basement wasn't so cold!

HOly MOLey, diaper changing and feeding does take up quite a bit of one's time!

My son was born on Sept 29th and he and Mama are healthy!
Named him Quentin...and now for a nap...

Well, my adrenaline is pumping! We're off to the hospital in a couple hours where my wife will be prepped and birth will be induced - when next I appear, I'll be a Papa!

Today was V's official due date for the baby, but alas, no labor pains. So ... it's the waiting game!

Worked on my website today quite a bit and getting ready for a major overhaul, something I haven't done in about a year.

Visited MomMoo in the recovery center. Had Mom over for dinner. Gave my dad a guilt trip for going on a golf...

Customary 9 hours at work today, but I actually enjoyed myself - felt more productive than my standard middle-management cog in the machine type mentality that I've had of late.

Everyone was very nice and many birthday wishes today.

My beautiful wife cooked up my favorite Thai chicken dish with rice and this wonderful cucumber/red pepper salad. She's a fantastic cook. My mom also came...

More interesting than my 11 hour day at work filling out spreadsheets and routing information was my dreamscape last night.

Certain key themes reoccur:

1) The "Teeth" dream - where my teeth fall out, one by one, loose, so I can pluck them easily.

2) The "Lost in the City" dream where I'm wandering through city streets searching for a way out.

Archetypes.

The gang...

Since my last update, went to the rehabilitation center to see Mom-Moo, who is doing better, though she's still weak. Crushed vertibrae can't be easy to deal with but she's making a valiant effort and was up and about a bit before being exhausted.

Place was nicer than I expected, though very sterile-ish.

Returned home, collected the 100 best songs of Bob Dylan into an...

I've been very sucko at updating and keeping a journal of any kind in recent years. This general malase regarding the written word has extended into other areas as well.

Translation: I'm getting rusty! My verbal acrobatics are flipfolumping on the floor like a poor ol' gasping mackerel on the hardwood floor. So I want to say: TODAY I will begin the new journal adventure....
