The Listening World
Hurling imprecations into the wind
I march to work without regard
for anyone at my back
who might be catching my curses full-on
in the face, travelling in the bitter stream
with snowflakes, flying like ninja stars
past my angry earlobes.

Excellent.

I wish more contemporary poetry would dive into the metaphorical treasure trove that are implements of shadowy death. Preach on.
Another day, another display of talent wasted. I think that was the most fun those people will have learning about the ordering/lookup kiosks. And if anyone needed a sign that I'm still too manic for upper management they got it tonight, for when they come looking for the man in charge you don't take them to Mork from Ork.

in retrospect, i probably shouldve thought of something more creative to say to start off.

I managed to resist the sausage guy, but only because I already have someone way better.

Dear America,
We got your message. Oh, and fuck you too.

PS. I guess now you don't have to worry about gay marriages taking away your jobs.

He lied. About his service record. About his intentions as "compassionate conservative". About what his administration knew about terrorism before it came to claim 3000 American lives. About the weapons of mass destruction he alleged Hussein had. And as his administration runs roughshod over all that makes America one of the great testaments to the glory of liberal democracy, he lies every day about "loving...

so do you have room in your basement?

This past election made me realize something. I may do my best to listen to what each candidate is saying, but I sometimes fall flat on my face trying to figure out why they're saying what they're saying. This is pretty much because, while I do follow our potential presidents, I don't know much about the political system as a whole.
So, since I trust you're wisdom and intelligence, I'm wondering if you can recommend a book (or many) that I can pick up in order to give myself a good education on the political process. I'd just feel more comfortable if next time around my decision was based more on fact than just my opinions of things.

Dear America,
If I don't get to talk to you again before you get busy electing a president, then write this down and take it with you as you head off to the polls: Stop fucking up the whole goddamn world.
Hugs and kisses,
Dogslife

Well done, Dogslife.
The party was crap, so you left. You didn't have a costume anyway, and who announces a Halloween party on the 27th anyway?
You held court at the bar afterwards magnificently, ensuring that yet another person who's just met you will forever think of you as the funniest person she's ever met.
You do us proud.

Wow, you're running NHS now? Excellent. I'll certainly rejoin, but I'd like to give some heavy thought as to what I should write about. It's literally be years since I've had to write an essay of any sort, so I'd like it to be a good one. 
Who'd like to read my cover letter for this kooky job I'm trying to land? I just need a fresh pair of eyes to give it a once over.
It's about 800 words--long, I know, but without a resume and the imperative to demonstrate my brilliance that's as short as I can get it.

So, what did I miss?

Attachment madness and all, I hope it helped.
Am I an ass for being deeply annoyed that my friends can't even plan Halloween parties more than 5 days in advance? I just got an email this morning about a party happening on Sunday--"costumes are a must". If I had a fucking costume for a Halloween party, wouldn't that mean I already had plans to attend one somewhere else?
Oh, wait. Furthere update. ginny...

by "sharing information" on book publishing
you were sharing your thoughts and your trepidations and how you would approach it
if the people who wanted to submit had those thoughts
they would ask me and i would answer them with specifics pertaining to this book
your "sharing info" just seemed to muck things up more than i or you or anybody needed in that thread
i just got invited to a halloween party today
just another place to go
thats always good
right?

The weekend--she rocked. Could've rocked harder, granted, but then we'd have run a much higher injury risk.
