Oh joy. It's 5000 degrees outside. Even my cat is sitting in front of the AC. I'm looking forward to cooler weather in 90 days or so.....

Baptist weddings suck. No booze, no music, no dancing, lots of crawly little children. Even Jesus drank wine, for pete's sake. And the ever popular verbal blow job instead of a gratuity.
And I came home to find a very large scorpion in my bedroom.
Yet somehow, I'm in a great mood. Go figure.

About 40 homegrown, organic tomatoes of multiple varieties. Couple of onions, caramelized. Plenty of garlic. A wee bit of chicken broth, a small can of tomato paste. Basil, rosemary, oregano, thyme-all from the yard.
Simmer 3-4 hours.
Best tomato sauce ever.

I love Perugina chocolate the best. Someday I want to own some acreage in the country with a little old rock house on it. My 30s have gone by way to fast. Old cemetaries are interesting. Roses are overrated. Mermaids fascinate me. Most science fiction writing bores me. I miss my convertible. Mystery Train is a great movie. Steve Earle should not have sold...

Lightning in the sky, thunder in the clouds, John Coltrane in the player and single malt in the glass. I'll be on the back porch if anybody needs me...........

Sounds great, all but the scotch. Make that bourbon and I'd love that...
I'm sucked up to this screen, Family Guy playing on the screen three feet to my right. My cat's curled up at my feet, and I just ran out of black licorice.

I love the miracle of a song that grabs you, heart and soul. Hearing it for the first time, obtaining it in a form you can listen to over and over. Really it's like having a new lover, the thrill of the new.

The most recent thing I've heard that grabbed me that way was "The Mariner's Revenge Song" by The Decemberists.
I am a slut for boots. Cowboy boots, to be specific; although a nice pair of riding boots can ring my bell also. Ok, also motorcycle boots. And those black lace up leather ones, that never get to come out of the closet anymore....
Periodically, I haunt Ebay for treasures. I give myself a $50 limit, and sometimes I luck out.
I own 14 pairs...

Hey I see that you will be coming to New England in the fall and you wanted some advice on where to go. I have to tell you that the Berkshires in Massachusetts is HIGHLY overrated and overpriced. I should know, my job requires me to make the 60 mile trek twice a day up there. The only thing I see on a regular basis up there is pollution and crappy looking houses. If you don't mind pollution, etc. I would suggest you go to Boston where you can do MUCH more on WAY less money 
The nice thing about being used to falling is that you get better at picking yourself up.
Bought a cheap plane ticket to Boston in October, and will rent a car....just going to throw my sleeping back and tent in a duffel(along with some thermal undies)and sleep where I can find a spot. I am going to indulge in serious fried clam and lobster roll...

Try not to fuck the cat.
Saw my ex today, with whom I am evidently still in love......with his pretty, thin, young, new girlfriend.
I want to curl up on the floor and howl like a dog. I want to self destruct. I want to go to sleep and not wake up for awhile.

The good:
Being a hero to my niece
Getting paid in herbal lovin' by my bro
Finding out I get to do a cooking demo with Aunt Pearl from Greater Tuna
Getting a new hole in the ear
Planning trips
Homegrown tomatoes
Single malt
The bad:
Musicians who cancel their gig at the last minute due to "illness"
People who drive 55 in the left...

Apparently, I accidentally stirred crack into my coffee this morning, because I have done the unthinkable.
I agreed to take my 13 year old niece to the midnight Harry Potter release at Barnes and Noble.
I just spent an hour in line to get a wristband that will entitle us to join the hoard of muggles getting facepainted, and eating free candy. The goddam Starbucks...

Hi,
I am feeling much better thank you, but I think my b/f is absolutely freaked out. I guess it is to be expected. Can you imagine someone 42 who has never dated someone with mental illness? I guess it comes from being from England. America, drives you to insanity.
Anywho, this is absolutely hysterical, but I think other than trying to stay up that late, it should actually be quite cute.

My little sis reads harry potter, but she's 20! LOL. She's not like an uber fan, but she insists that they are "good books, that aren't just for kids." I'm sure she's right, but I still can't bring myself to read them. 
Good luck with that. It should be insanity, fun times.
Thanks for commenting on my photoset. I'm glad you liked it. Semi-public nudity, is pretty fun.

I have a week's worth of vacation time I have to use up before mid-November(yeah, waaaah, f'ing waaaah). I have no money. I want to get out of town!!!
Options:
The Guadalupe Mountains/Chisos/Big Bend(Chili Cookoff)
Buffalo River in Arkansas
New Mexico-damn a bowl of green chile stew would be good.
And the option that is most tempting but least sensible:
