sometimes i like to copy things out of books. typing is meditative to me, and it also gives me a certain familiarity with the story, like running over its contours with my fingers. i guess it's the same reason i learned braille and also spell out street names in sign language when i walk around. that reason being...? i don't know. i hate the abstractness...

Well I don't know of anything I'd want to do in Tennessee.. it's not a place that is a hotbed of the activities, places I would like to do, but I'm open to suggestion.
Well I work at a phone company for money and do writing/film/music in my spare time right now. Lots of student debt to pay off. And I write reviews and things. Most of the music stuff I do is like electronic studio stuff and things for radio plays, but I do love to participate.
Actually I was planning on going to Victoriaville for the first time this year - first year I was too broke, 2nd I had to work. Have always wanted to go.. it's coming up pretty soon.. may I believe.

Currently living in Marseille... grew up in a much smaller place in the South of France (= from this half of France where butter is optional ) ... and still nostalgic about these things you can eat just out of the garden if you're living on the countryside! I think these don't compare with even the freshest products from farmers markets... (meaning your post made me envious!

i've been a domestic li'l pygmy lately. baking 2 loaves of bread every day (no bread machine for me!), and every meal from scratch, of course, as usual. looking through seed catalogs, planning the garden. going to get a rain barrel soon to attatch to the gutters. going to go to the habitat for humanity store to get some reclaimed windows to make some cold...

Ahh... now that makes sense to me. I have a car, after all...
helly:
How are you settling in? 
we made it!
though we were held up in wyoming for a day, what with the migrating jackalopes taking over the freeways and all... must be global warming. the jackalopes were not previously a migratory species, don't you know. i blame president bush.
as soon as we got here, the furnace promptly broke down, so i stayed in bed under the covers for 2 days...

Funnily enough, I was actually thinking, while reading the excerpt, how much like you Palomar seemed.
I am considering reinforcing the joint with some sort of metal staple, though I suspect it won't do the acoustics much good. If it's awful, I'll probably put a pickup on it.
(No I don't know what I'm doing. But it's mine, and if it explodes into a cloud of splinters, well, I'm not out anything.)
