A Lynch film incarnate
no continuity
sudden starts, stops
incomprehensible twists
had it out this morning
now she acts
now she acts as if its all fine
all fine
nothing happened
nothing happened?
but my soul recalls
I can feel the scars
touch the pain
truth I can take
lies and silence I fear
now she acts
now she acts as if its all fine...

The board of McDonald's Corp. named Charlie Bell chief executive after Jim Cantalupo, the leader of the recent turnaround at the world's biggest fast-food chain, died of an apparent heart attack Monday.

And God apparently found it so funny, he did it again the very next week...

Ahh! I wrote a whole long reply and it went to who knows where... shocked

In summary, I hear back on the Foreign Service thing in June or July, but I'm pretty confident I made it to the next round... smile

This weekend, of course, is Coachella, which will rule. I have 2 extra tickets (non-profit) and Suicide Kids get first crack at them. I can email them to you even!! eeek Ah, the wonders of the information age! The first day is sold out, thanks to Radiohead, so it shouldn't be too hard to get rid of the extras.

After that, I have to throw together a lecture/presentation for next week in Sacramento. I should have done it already, but I was afraid they would take away the cool picture of me (actually, its a WSJ type illustration) in the dictionary next to the definition of procrastinator.

Note: two Jehovah's Witnesses just came to the door.

Ordinarily I would just ignore them and pretend that nobody's home, but for some reason I didn't even check and then I was nice to them...I'm such a whore for karma... wink

For anyone who bothers coming to my site:

You may have noticed that I sometimes go a while without updating the journal...I have plenty to blather on about but I wouldn't know where to start.

So feel free to ask a question, start a discussion or even an argument. Communication is the key to all relationships, even virtual ones... wink

ah, i'm glad your feeling a little better. but seriously, youve got to relax and enjoy life a little more. sure some stress is garnered from the outside, but lots of it is self induced. this is all we have! so we need to stop and enjoy it right?

Good God! Do you ever just put all your cards out there to a person you like, only to have them fold? Its a bit painful. frown

With pain and scars come wisdom and experience, I guess...but does it really have to hurt that much?

Sorry to bum anyone out who's reading this...

Damn...the weekend is already half-empty...

Work is piling up on my desk...I wanted to get rid of most of it today, but I ended up doing very little. I guess that means I'll spend the remainder of the weekend digging through it so it won't be staring me in the face Monday morning, when the phones start ringing and more flows in...
