The twinkle in the dewdrop saved her
As sprinkles of shimmering showers filled the sky.
She lay there sweating, heart pounding.
Her dream finally fulfilled,
She shook a victorious fist at the clouds.
The soft sound surprised even herself.
A loud cawing laugh shot out of her lungs.
Suddenly finished, a toothy smile filled her mouth.
Her head sunk back into the mossy bed....

nice...nice.... and nice from my journal as well.....
I signed up for my college courses today. Like always, I waited to the last minute. It is damn near impossible for me not to wait till the last minute. It is almost as if subconciously I prefer the last minute. I hate being late, because I dislike when other people are late. But I simply can't help it. I am the guy who strolls...

and let's see if you get this.... it is far more pleasurable than you can imagine. and even better the closer you get until it merges with you. entirely...until you cant handle yourself...and run away

good to have you back, alex.
All too many times in my life have i been slapped with the dismay of my geographic standing. I would perscribe a plan of removal and a dawn of a new era in your life. following your dream could have hurt people before, but it's more rewarding than staying someplace that doesn't make you happy. so charge and write the tale of your life now so you have something to look back on while you rot in the old folks home 67 years from now.

Tommarow morning I am off to Seattle and the surrounding Washington area for two weeks. I have been anxious for this trip and am in much need of a vacation.
The next time I fly out to the west coast I plan on moving there, so look out folks!

So, what's your favourite Roxy Music song?
And Lone Ranger and Tanto story?
Lately, i have been listening to...nothing interesting, actually! I got all my old CDs back from my parent's house, so i'm listening to lots of ani difranco.

Well, my weekend was quite uneventful except for this evening. I went to this great coffee shop, Slave To The Grind (great name eh?), with two of my good friends. We had some of the best coffee talk I have had in a while and it continued at the chinese restaurant we hit afterwards. Nothing like some raunchy, honest sex talk with a couple sweet...

yeah, rush tickets are great. they're super cheap and you never know where your seat is going to be. the first time i got rush tickets was for beethoven's 9th at the dorothy chandler pavillion in los angeles, which is huge. i just assumed that the tickets sucked so i walked up to the top balcony but my seat wasn't there. turns out my seat was just a few seats behind front and center. it was brilliant.
i love opera singing, but i'm not a big fan of whole operas themselves. of course, maybe just need to listen to a few more and give them a chance. i love my 3 cd maria callas collection though.
la boheme by puccini is another one that everyone loves. it has some great great songs. and it's about starving young artists in love and stuff.

don giovanni, on the other hand, is about a guy who tries to force himself on a girl, then kills the girls father when he hears her screams and tries to rescue her. then gets dragged down into hell by the father at the end after he invites the father's statue to dinner.
Ya know what throws me? How some people go out of their way to make a situation miserable. At work yesterday, I had two customers who clearly went out of their way just to aggravate me. I can't understand how people find it easier to be an asshole, but it has been on my list of human deficiencies for a while now.

your gardening fantasy sounds really hot. i might have to steal that. what would make it even better is if it was freshly watered and the sun had just left the area so there's shade but the ground is still warm. ok, im getting too into this.... excuse me, uh, i gotta go
Lack of sleep can stir up some frightening results!
Today, I was napping before I had to go to work and I had the strangest dream. For some reason or another I was working in some music store that seemed more like a general store from the old west. Anyway, while I was working, this happy, flamboyant woman in her 40's or 50's (and her...

My aunt actually had amnesia for like a day or two once. They found her wandering the streets not knowing who she was. If it were short lived, I think it'd be pretty cool.

okay, today? time to get a little political. i apoligize in advance but i can't keep my mouth shut here...hmm... should i complain about the Bush administration holding the U.N. Family Planning Funds?
"Women and children will die because of this decision," said Thoraya Obaid, executive director of the U.N. fund.

Yeah, China is TOTALLY an excuse! You know what they say, we shouldn't trust a government headed by a Bush, a Colin and a Dick. But that's pretty lame.
And I told the guy yesterday to go to the Brasserie Montmartie. It's okay, relatively cheap French food with an awesome atmosphere. It was right around the corner. I wasn't going to brainstorm every restaurant when I knew he was probably secretly writing down my license #. But apparently, nobody did 'cause the hit car lady was clueless. Dammit! Ha ha.
