SG Boston show review:
First of all, I don't think the organizers were expecting such a jam-packed sold out spree on a Monday night. Kudos all round to everyone who put the show together for filling the house! It was an action filled event!
On a personal note, what made the night for me was the chance to meet some of the SG Boston folk,...

SO absolutely jealous! I hope you have an amazing time! Looking forward to hearing about it, as well... 
Nothing really new to say, except that the week is dragging, and time is passing by too quickly.
The house is cleaner, the little doglets are kind of behaving, and the theremin is making beautiful electromagnetic sounds. And Saturday after work, I believe a co-worker is coming by to partake of absinthe...was planning a lightning quick trip to NY early Sunday morning, but have decided...

Alas, no burlesque in Boston (or Providence) for me... 
One of my friends in SGCT tells me that since their tour is being so well received, they are already planning another. I'll undoubtedly have the foresight to take some speckled days for driving to Boston, making new friends, looking up a couple from school & seeing glorious tattooed ladies.
Thank you immeasurably for the Eno offer! I'm only online briefly now but, I'll pass along my info before the weekend's out.

A day of paper and plastic. Spent it realphabetizing my books, and completely reorganizing my cds. And there are a lot of both. The dogs tried to help. Edison is a real showman, and Tesla has tapped into an unending energy supply. Kind of predictable, really, but more than a handful when you have to deal with it on a daily basis!

Lending out good books is always a pleasure.
Bad Wisdom seems to have a lot of intrest in it from people I know.
It makes me wonder how two, mostly, washed up British rock stars would feel that there are actually people that remember their past musical works and are intrested in persuing their, somewhat, more recent literary works.

Actually, in the post above, I left a link to a flash-animated site... That link again is right here. Any My Squelchy Life bone to throw me would be great! It may be a week or two before I have the bandwidth in order to receive it...thank you very much for the offer!

Spent an amazing day with my bf today. We took a day road trip...something we haven't done in a while, damn this long hard winter. We drove (he drove, actually) around almost Western MA & NH, just looking at things and talking, and just having a blast. Perfect.

Sounds like a wonderful time.
I *may* be able to get to Manray tomorrow (metric fucktons of homework). Are you spinning?

I have absolutely nothing to say about what I may or may not be wearing, where I'll be going, who I'll be going with, what I'm listening to besides the voices in my head, how deeply troubled I am about so many "issues" in my life right now, the future of music and mass media, the world and whether while in...

Quite right! Absolutely nothing wrong with nothing! I did enjoy your pictures enough to make me both jealous and anxious... Jealous at never having left the country before - Barcelona was undoubtedly amazing! Anxious for it seems I will be going to Ireland this summer! Arming myself w/ a soon-to-be-purchased digital camera, I can't wait to take hundreds of photos. I'll just have to remember to get in front of the camera for a few of them, as well!

One more night, and my work week is done! Think I'll spend the day working on sampler experiments, and playing with my little dogs...they seem to be craving attention today.
Went to a wake for a close friend's father on Monday, which was an odd experience because I've been watching the first season of 6 Feet Under on dvd lately. After that, I went out to dinner with a couple of friends who were also at the wake, and we ended up at a semi-deserted drag bar in town, watching the queens belt out (actually,...

Good editing call...and no offense taken. 
I've found that the postings boxes, such as the one I'm writing in now, are great for rambling...not so good for trying to format poetry. I'm also a bit 'proofready' so, no one could ever be more critical than myself.

To explain my lack of DEVO is easy.
I hate boiling myself down to a string of lists.
though I'm sure if I started to list off stuff I would run into the same out of space problem you ran into.

Productivity, productivity!!! It's all about recording my new album. Mellotron, Marxophone, piano, theremin, stylophone, too many analogue synths, angklungs, and absolutely no guitars. Probably some violin, ukelele and cello. And probably some absinthe and wine. Amazing new unpublished lyrics by brilliant authors. I'm neck deep in this grand folly, and proud of how it's coming along.
I'm seeing certain geodesic qualities in myself...I may look...

I SO need a copy of this album upon completion! Granted, mentioning theremin & mellotron in the same sentence isn't unusual to synth anchronists but, I have, for all intents and purposes, no musician friends. So hearing someone else's wonderful fortune of being able to record with such things makes me happy for them...and bitterly jealous.

i'm sorry i couldn't call you back, the cell phone had a problem finding a signal, and still can't. i'm thinking it's the weather...

All around me everything is cold. The weather in Reykjavik is better than where I live, and people I know and love treat me with, at best, apathy. What is this? Am I wasting my time?
Maybe it's the insomnia talking, or maybe it's the cause of the insomnia. I'm not being very good about making heads or tails of anything right now, because the...

There's nothing quite like cold to sap energy for moving, energy for doing, forward momentum in trudging through to the next thing... Hope you find yourself the winner of a surprise electric blanket & matching slippers. I'd shoot to see Big Fish first, rather that Return of the King. The latter is great, up for a couple of Oscars which makes it likely to be around for at least another month - Maybe not so w/ Big Fish.

Cryptonomicon has a slow start...first 50-100 pages. After that, it's really remarkable. A possible, better-served introduction to Neal Stephenson is Snowcrash (if you haven't read it already). It's easily 600 pages shorter and is a bogglingly fast read - Crypto took me a month to crack the first time. 
See you at MR tomorrow.
