I forgot that I was stuck in the middle of Alberta. Such things like the invite listed below quickly bring me back to reality:

there are at times no words to say... Sometimes, late at night, I come up with some random stuff, that when reviewed the next morning, could not have come from my brain.
So I remark...
In the depths of the ones late-night wanderings of the mind, when absurdity lurks behind the next page, thoughts, briefly liberated from their vagrancy, may abruptly coalesce and everything quickly becomes clear. However, are you the architect of...

it was a pannel discussion and ol prof dude was being asked about what was to come with new research and how he felt about this stuff comming up, the room went silent. looking back if i wasn't in the room and just as mortified as everyone elese, it would have been funny.
the thing is, about a month into when i was working for him, we were talking about his lack of proactive research, and i commented that he had "gone soft" in his age. hummmm?

It is not about suffering, but the senselessness that often accompanies suffering.
Nietzsche believed that our problem is not suffering itself, but the lack of meaning or apparent purpose to the suffering. In fact, he believed that at times we will seek out suffering, provided that there is an apparent meaning for it, a purpose in the suffering.

i just saw that movie hotel rwanda.
have you seen it,
it made me disgusted to be human. it goes very much along with what you posted
for whatever reason, we need to deminish and debase

So much of nothing new.
I have been shopping for a pocket pc. Canada has no selection, and everything is much more expensive than in the states.

Oh man, I am obsessed with the power of caffeine.
Ive been spending at least five days a week at this tea lounge. The atmosphere is good and quality loose-leaf tea is amazing. I am truly an addict now; I drink so much of it (maybe a half-gallon?) that I begin to tremble and become overly enthusiastic about the most mundane topics. Everything develops this...

I'm a little brain dead; it's 3:30am. So here is another short poem:
The Dark Corner
The Wine Maiden
on this jazz laden night
squeezes
luscious grapes
with ruby lips
letting dew drops drip
Upon me
sweet breasts
pressed firmly
against faint skin.

Ive got the mid February Blahs. I am in need of a change in scenery, warmer weather (I am only asking for above freezing), and something green. In fact, I actually need a little drama in my life, some action. I gotta find a Drama Queen to help stir up some shit.

As usual, I can't sleep. So, I thought I would post something I've been working on. Of course, it's about sleep.
Sleep Lost
Her mind brews espresso at 2am
as she courts sleep in narrow alleyways
darkened by a long departed ambient slumber.
Well oiled, her brain chuffs and touts
worn memories on the black market
while itemizing the splinters
shackled like wet stucco searing...

Wow.
Nice poem.
For about 90 blessed seconds there I was swept away.
Thanks for the well wishes.
It really isn't as bad as it all sounds.
I just don't have much free brain space to think up clever journal entries.

A random lady came to my door late the other evening asking for some cash for a cab fare. Yes, knocked on my door, "because the light was on," and asked me if I had any money. What the hell? In my own home? Only in Canada.
I wished her luck and sent her on her way.

I have this unusual and horrible pet peeve that I wish I didnt have. It drives me insane when people make loud chewing noises. This goes beyond the disgusting chewing with your mouth open. For some reason, various people masticate their food longer and/or with more saliva, thus often creating these gross sounds that drive me crazy. In fact, there have been times I have...
