well it's that time again, friends!
Haiku Thursday
this week I want to have a theme. I know it's easier to find your own inspiration, but I thought it fun to pick a topic this week, something obscure and silly.
the topic: your favorite candy... enjoy!!!
candy cigarettes
wrapped so innocently there
my eyes are held fast

My weekend was filled with seeing family and remembering.
But alas, travel once again consumes my time.
Please don't forget me while I'm away. I promise I haven't forgotten you all... Updates to follow soon, my friends 
(you can see right up my nose in that profile pic, can't you?)

Hey I think they'll remember me ... they asked for my id and address and fingerprints.

Hi Hon:
Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you.
To answer your question, I called the Exec. Producer about the line-producing job over a week ago. He and his partners came to the conclusion that business was to slow to hire anyone now, so now they're pushing back hiring to September. I was a little pissed. He had led me on for three full weeks, the least he could have done was taken the time to call me back and let me know that plans had changed. Instead, I had to chase him that entire time. He said "I was tenacious as hell...I love that", and "I'll keep your resume at the top of the pile." Whatever, I don't the need the patronizing, ...more action less talk! So, it looks like it's back to the ol' drawing board. I'll just keep handing out resumes and hope for a new job by the fall.
Where are you going?

I'm staring at my camera. It can't stare back because the lens cover is in place. Been in place for too long.
If I strain my ear close, listening through the silence
I make out the call
A call for use
To see with eyes inspired
And mind free of conventional borders
To capture fleeting images before time erodes them
And all thats left is...

reptilia:
Me too. I'm drained.
Yeah, I'll get down there eventually.
I'm almost positively gonna be there on the 4th though, for the hip-hop show at Vino's. But I dunno if you're into hip hop music or anything.

i posted more pics. when do you get back?
lilfleur:
Well, awesome...never heard of them, but I'm glad you had fun. Sometimes the company is more entertaining than the band.
I'm sitting here eating Krispy Kreme donuts wondering just where the hell the week went... sorry for the neglect. But these chocolate pasteries sure are delicious. I still have plenty for all you late breakfast eaters.
The play opened last night, despite much unnecessary drama off the stage. There was a full-blown fight betewwn the techs and the director, resulting in the entire tech crew...

WOO HOO wear the kilt!!! i'm fighting a fucking head cold and i better not be feeling miserable tomorrow night 
reptilia:
Shame it's only being perfomed twice. Glad to hear that it was received well, though!
Cherry-filled donuts are my fave. And the regular glazed are up there as well.
I didn't go to E3, just eagerly anticipating all the explosive news that manages to linger out of all the important people's mouths. And for news concerning Nintendo's next console, which was very limited, sadly.

Late night and I can't sleep. Must be because I'm sober... 
At any rate, the days are closing on the long rehearsed play. I can't believe I've been working with these guys since the last week of October. Mind you it wasn't every day, nor every week, but that still is a long time. And even though there are still some 'hiccups' in the performance,...

it's almost Monday!!!!
josephene:
Where are you?
Today I was thinking about someone from long ago. We didn't have very much time together, but those precious moments still stick with me even til this day. There were just too many complications: I was young, she was Miss America, the demanding schedule of my school and her travels... to see her wear that crown once more would bring a smile to my face....

Yes, you never know.....
Sorry for the drunkenness the other evening, I felt impelled to comment, but then realized I could not. Too much wine champagne crap that had me in a huge hangover the next day. Too much for me=2 glasses. Heh.
Happy inking....vitamin E cream rocks for healing by the way. Polysporin is just plain scary. And don't scratch!!!!

The day has come and gone (mostly) with no bad luck. Of course midnight is still a good handful of hours away, so I'd better be on the lookout and not do anything out of the ordinary... like hold a black cat while walking on broken mirror fragments while passing under a ladder.

I think the best presents are the ones that are made with love, like the one from your dad. That is very cool. That's why this dollhouse means so much to me and I want it to mean just as much to my girl. Looking back on my childhood, the presents that stick out in my mind are the ones that my grandpa made it. he is an amazing man.
reptilia:
Yeah, it went pretty well. No eerie ghosts or strange ghouls came after me. Work was hell though, but it always is on weekends.
Thanks for the links. I'll check them out when I get off tonight.

one thing to note however (at least this is what i'm told) "lemonade" to the Brits, is sprite to us. So you actually mix it with sprite or ginger ale or something like that. cucumber slices and mint leaves are yummy with it. last night i didn't have cucumber or mint and i used lemons and oranges...YUMMY indeed!!!
perfect drink for your porch

mine came direct from jolly old England so it's not my fault if its all sold out around here!!
Tonight I made myself a mojito. Click here for details. One hell of a good drink!! This is the first really hot day we've had this season. The cool minty sips washed away my tepidness and gave me a lightheaded buzz to not care about the humidity. Aahhh.... I think I need more practice, though; anyone care to come over and share a few?...

Hmmm, I would wager that you can climb better now because, well, you're sober. We should get you amazingly drunk ... maybe even the same concotion, and try again .. I figure it'll be amusing eithe way...

I've returned from a weekend of near misses and good visits.
1) family issues are all gone. The one thing that was the center of it all has turned out fine. Or at least mostly fine for now. this is the near miss.
2) got to see some family members I've not seen in about a year. We got some good catching up taken care....

How wonderful things seem to be resolved with your issues...I was worried about you, sweetie, but am very happy things seem to have settled.
I love reconnecting with family and friends you haven't seen in a long time. It's like finding money. People who hold bits and pieces of your past are priceless. I sure would like to know some remyx secrets.
You've been to New Orleans quite a bit, right? I hear there are lots of hauntings that happen there. Or what would be the equivalent to tourist-hauntings.
You be good, and keep the Bud cold...

I could be game for giving some RPG-ism a shot now and again. Call of Cthulu sounds freaky, based on what I know about Lovecraft n'them.
Do you have text messaging on your phone? We should be text-buddies...I have 1000 a month, and only seem to be using about 200.
AND...in August...you may want to carpool...I may know someone else from your neck of the woods that will be coming...
