But, onto other life news....My sister has been having a horrible recovery from surgery. My mum and step-dad visit her once a week and had to rush her to the emergency room. It turns out she has developed a rare bacterial infection from lack...

Yes he is very cute, I love him so much, but they do take a look of work to stay happy, they need lots of love and exercise and room to play and lots of stuff for them to play with.
What about gizmo makes you so happy? Why are things not going good with your boytoy?

I had the haircut (or, more accurately, an almost complete lack of hair) up until 7 or 8 weeks ago...
partial liver transplant? could work... but then again, I couldn't have the scar tissue on my conscience. or the minor inconvenience of you not having a whole, hale, healthy liver

ikaruga:
curses.
you have just used both pfffft and pshaw, which prevents me from using them. foiled once again. good idea, but I think that if I was going to get a liver transplant, I'd wait until the current one craps out on me. I'm going to have a couple of years of sobriety if this happens, so I'm in no hurry for this to happen.
also, and more importantly, I can think of better reasons to visit the states than a partial liver transplant...

my sister had her exploratory surgery today to see if the cancer spread to her lymphnodes..the doctor said it looks as though it didn't - which is so good to know! They have to run the rest of the tests - but it looks as though she will be okay to have the mastectomy and reconstruction - this month...She is glowing green from the radioactive...

good news about your sister.
Though i realize she's got a long haul ahead of her with even more surgery.
I think your "Goofy ass" poem is actually quite clever,
then again....
i usually get Sarcasm
so... when is the next date with the new guy?

woah - your job sounds like organisational hell and a bit like kindergarten for adults!

Saw your yourtube link in a friend of mines journal of Pretty Green by the Jam - one of my fave songs...Ah memories of the 80's!!
nokturn:
Well congrats on the boytoy!
Ten years ain't nuthin!
Sounds like you're doing OK without that manual... so when you find it, can I have it first?!?

I was amazing the other day...tonight - not so much...I have no small human this weekend and I am spending my Saturday night at work...I am trolling for pity and sympathy...I am the only person in my office and campus police just locked me into the building....Kind of scary - I am having visions of murderous ex-interns coming back to kill me.....

Love the new profile pic! The colour looks great on you!
Sorry you were locked up by the campus police. When I was in college the first time, a girl on my floor was KNOCKED up by the campus police. Girl was apparently kaboodled and in blackout mode, or possibly passed out. Big scandal ensued but nothing ever camoe out of it -of course, this was in a city where the mayor got videotaped with a hooker, buying crack, and got reelected, so go figure. Hope you got out okay.
I played "3 Drunk Newts" for you last night.

I played a lot last night, and with a sprained wrist I've been working with and riding the Harley with for two weeks. It's really swollen now. The deal was a garand for 3 hours with a half hour break, but I played solo an hour early and then the whole band played from 10 to 3 with 2 breaks. I'll post the setlist when I finish screwing my head back on. I must have drunk several pots of coffee and a couple gallons of water last night. The at 5 a, when I got home I couldn't sleep. But, man, could I piss!!!
Anyway, the gig was for a large fraternity and they said they'll have us back. Guess they were drunk enough not to realize we're not that good. But we can fake it and ad lib all night and what we (actually, I'm the only talentless one) lack in skill, we (I) replace with mindless energy. Actually, I've had stage fright every time I've performed in front of an audience, be it music, acting, public speaking, teaching or satisfying former lovers' exhibitionist streaks (pun not originally intended, but I think I'll keep it). In some of those situations, like music, I can take that intense fear and channel it into performance energy.
Okay, enough rambling. I hurt and I yuawn and I gotta get up at 6 tomorrow and I haven't put away the 3 guitars, bass, keyboard, microphones, effects boards and all the other crap yet, so I have to go proscratinate some more beforew I blow it off and go to bed.
I really hope your'e all right.
pilkington:
I have a confession.
I've never actually read the Joyce story.
(puts up right hand) I saw the musical.
I think I liked the story better.
Current fav Irish writer: Beckett
Why? I'm the dramaturg at the Utah Beckett Festival
In the next few days, I will learn more about Beckett than anyone should ever know.
For example, Beckett's burial wishes were that he should be flushed down the toilet in the Trinity Theatre fifteen minutes from go time. Was he joking? Possibly. Did it happen? Yes.
Beckett is *the* vaudevillian.
Cheers,
Dev

How amazing am I? (that is not attention-whoring - it's rhetorical!) (but - if you care to weigh in on the subject - I would not object!

Well, maybe. How tall are you anyway?
opticnerve:
Wait. You wear 5 inch heels? Maybe it's the Guinness, but I can't wrap my ahead around that. I'm 5'8'' plus half an inch. Stupid Asian anscestors.
I am getting so good at this updating thing! Many thanks to GiggleStar for the swearing pointers. Being me - I am such an adolescent - I taught the class (before the professor arrived) on how to swear!
I had such a better day today! I think spending too much time at home sick - is bad...Not just the whole sick part, but it seems...

Glad you're doing better! I give people oft-unvocalized private monickers too! There was a great Friends episode with Ross and his naming of his students and someone maybe Monica says something about how they'll call HIM Professor McNailshisstudents
Love the private asides you thunk while saying stuff to Bouncer Boy.
Perhaps I'll do a lizard song for you at the big Hallowe'en gig we have bookedSaturday night. I don't see why not. After all, as a great (or mayhap just twisted) man once said:
I AM THE LIZARD KING! AND I CAN DO ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!

Have I mentioned how hot you are?
Okay, so I have a thing for smart chicks.
I love reading your conversation transcripts.
Maybe I'm in the minority, but I say you must go for it with sarcastic psych boy. I don't necessarily mean in terms of a relationship. But it's clear you do like him, and hey, you'd feel so dirty, it'd be incredible.
Okay, what the hell am I thinking posting all this?

technology exists for one reason. to fuck up my day. 
I have also found out how old I am...I was talking to sarcastic school boy from my psych class - he is really funny..So he asks to borrow a book - I say okay..then I said something about not working the next day - he said "oh my mom works on campus"..I say "oh really...

Jamie Lee is one of my favorite from the horror genre!
i like the fact that she is not at all embarassed that she got her start in horror films.
and i hear ya about the "old" thing....
i feel this way a lot at my job when talking to my younger coworkers about movies and music...
i'm starting to think that i suffer from some form of age snobbism (did i just make up a word?)
"What do you mean you never heard of The Clash!"

i love the ducky

I am finally feeling 1/3 human today! But, my baby lizard died last night...My poor son, he was SOOO sad...I love this child to pieces - he got a box, lined it with sand and then put her in the refrigerator (until the funeral)...I thought the sand liner was cute as hell because she lives in sand and just in case she needs it in...

so you're a football fan, huh? what teams do you root for? i was pissed the Steelers weren't able to pull that one off against atlanta. and i cant believe the Raiders finally got a win! they used to be my other team, but i hardly follow them anymore!
northern:
I'm a total waste in French, despite six years of trying to learn it, even with tutors.
Sorry to hear about the lizard. Your son sounds sweet.
Glad you're feeling 1/3 human.
But I need to ask - what does the other 2/3's feel like?

Hopefully it all clears up soon for your sis.
They all decided we should record it, and during rehearsal it segued nicely into Marley's "Stir It Up," so two Bobs will be represented on our album. Jokermnan's pretty reggae the way we're doing it - I wouldn't let them listen to Bob's versions so it would really be our arrangement with me being the only one prejudiced by the original.
Thanks!
