Nothing particularly new to say, work week and all - I was thinking this morning how the daily routine of being rudely awoken from a dark sleep by news radio voices is really wearing thin...
Shower: washing hair & face, left arm then right arm, torso and the boys, left leg, right leg, rinse, dry - quick check to see if I can avoid shaving...

Survived the blender madness 
Great dive tonight, the water is crazy warm and lots of life down there = even thought they're pretty harmless the mud sharks we're wiggin' me out. Could be that I was freediving alone (broken rule 1) and was miles away from anyone including my car (broken rule 2)
Survived though and the best part was laying naked on the beach...

I completely agree about being naked outdoors . . .

Thinking of getting a welsh dragon tattoo in memory of my grandfolks - I'm feeling like that part of my heritage is lost now and I'm missing the scones, welsh cakes, fry-ups - not missing the mushy vegetables though, never could figure that out 
Crunch time on the thesis, so not much interwebin' for the next while
Tomorrow night's blender drink night though

that a nice idea, do you have some examples of welsh dragons?
scones are delicious, but mushy vegetables?
good luck on working on your thesis!
but first enjoy your night out so you can start with a clear head

ya, fuck a bunch of cold water.
wetsuits are so restricting, I HATE having to wear one.

Went for a great late night swim with friends in the ocean - total darkness and really warm. Most people even in this metropolitan town of Vancouver probably wouldn't know that the water temperature in some of our bays in August are like Hawaii. Something about having your eyes wide open under water staring down into the darkness...

Its funny, when I first got back into the dating arena, I wanted to get this guy back to my place, but I could not figure out what to say to him! Then it occurred to me, duh, just ask him if he wants to come back to my place! Short, sweet, to the point. It takes much more effort to beat around the bush, and what if he doesnt get what Im trying to say?!
In some ways, dating is a lot easier now. In other ways, not so much (as evidenced by many of my journal entries) . . .

Bald eagle aren't really anywhere near the top of my list of favorite birds...but I enjoy the feeling that life will find a way - even while we humans do our best to destroy it at times.
Did you read the article about why the water along the coast this year is so warm?

Yaaa, the weekend 
I am so enjoying this fine bottle 'o wine...
Tomorrow I'm going freediving - gonna try for 60 feet... I know that's lame in the world of freediving, but the water here is frickin' cold and dark - and everytime I see weird creatures I panic and head for the surface.
I swear I'm still high from playing our last gig -...

i never went under water, unless for a occasional recreational swim, but nothing spectacular...
doing it outside is always nice, i prefer a nice countryside
but last new years i started out at the bar me and boyfriend were in and we ended up in some ally with drunk people walking past us at very close distance. that was kinda enteraining too

Played a great show last night at a mansion. First gig next to a pool full of boys and girls cavorting Great sound, nothing like a good monitor mix, everyone played real tight.

So, what's your thesis about?
And yes, Vancouver is quite a long way from the lovely little town of Biddinghuizen, where the festival is and the Pixies are performing
Chet Bakes is great, by the way! I really love his almost feminine voice.
I recently read his biografy, how somebody who can make such beautiful music can be such a nasty person

I keep having this weird dream where I step out the front door of my place and the lawn AND soil beneath is gone exposing this cavernous opening with huge gothic stone colums and a calm flowing subterranean river that's flowing from beneath my house Very dark vibe, wish I knew what the hell it meant - or could it be just random synapses firing......

Sunday night and Im just a wee bit buzzed pear coolers if you must know! Hot and sunny so I went for a couple kilometre swim. I wish I had my pole spear cause we all could have been eating halibut like mad this eve. I swam down about 20 feet and grabbed a 30 pounder by the tail they really arent smart fish. Slippery...

Sounds fabulous.
That story about your parents is still cracking me up. I can see the discussion at Starbucks is it what I think it is? Yes, I think it is. What should we do with it? (Im wondering why didnt they give it to the cashier or manager or something?) And then when they got home, now what do we do with it? And instead of asking the kids, who might have an idea about that (son, should we just flush this down the toilet? Sure dad, Ill take care of it for you ), they decide to LABEL it and stick it in the freezer. And THEN your dad decides to start spicing up his muffins with it. Too funny.

I think I may be in love with the new word processing girl at work, finally a woman who understands and cares as deeply as I about there being only space after a period

As I looked into my cut open hand a few days ago I was thinking about how fucking fragile we are, I mean, not the mind - cause we can get through all crazy kinds of fucked up-edness like people dying, people lying, people just being weak and/or evil, but physically... we're pretty poorly built from an engineering perspective.

Sorry to hear about the cut hand.
Hey guess what? I met the owner of .243 this weekend at an NSMB event up in Silver Star. Seems like a pretty cool guy.
I'm in town till Friday (going to Whistler) if you feel like hitting up a street ride. Just e-mail me. e-town@linuxmail.org
