gonna kick this one out a li'l early, since I'll be gone for the extended weekend...
took Friday off to help out a good friend with a some seasonal shutdown work - in Michigan UP :)
it'll be the farthest east I've been in my life *grins* - and the first trek into Michigan in general.
and those who know me know that if I'm...

Sometimes you watch one of those films that is so unbelievably weirdly wonderful that it puts your brain into total flux capacitor mode with internal ignition and carbon composite baseboard supplements...
er, or something like that - I forgot the pleather upholstery, that's important. Always important.
Just finished watching Detention (2011) and it has got to be THE weirdest film I've seen in a long...

It was a crazy-busy week of extra workload with more to follow next week as I assist for others as well as my own workload.
aka "workload+" :)
I can handle it alright, but it makes for some crazy days which leaves my work-yet-to-be-done temporarily sidelined yet unforgotten.
Friday I didn't work on one iota of my own workload, nor did I finish what I...

While I know a subject line of "Warm Streak!" could mean a multitude of things, I am talking about the weather ;)
it's been pretty nice after that bit of cold... though I know this warmth won't last forever *sighs*
unfortunately I've been pretty exhausted after work so haven't been out much to enjoy it - took a short walk yesterday after work, though...

boy, did these 3 months fly by and we're heading once again into this local 9month season of chill and cold *sighs*
I shiver just thinking about it! *brrr*
it hasn't reached pain temps yet, but it's going to fall to freezing tonight 'til tomorrow AM, so I'll keep indoors this weekend 'til it rises to the expected near-60.
*ugh*
Not. A. Fan... but this...

Busy week... very busy week - to which just short of 46hrs worked and a 10hr day yesterday can attest.
but it was a successful week and the new month will start off busy as well.
at intervals during the week - including a bit yesterday - conversations of "when we were younger" arose...
leading to the internal question of "what kind of world are...

It seems we're nearing the end of summertide in these parts - and, demn, has this summer flown by!
Not that I've really done much these past few years, but this year feels like I've done less than ever *shrugs*
just a couple weekends ago was the 3days with my girls and using up the last of my vaca before it expired... which was a...

First off...
it's less than 13 weeks to Hallowe'en (12 weeks, actually, but "less than 13" sounds a tad more ominous!)...!
*ahem*
now that I've got that temporarily out of my system, it's a 4day weekend!!
I'm using up my vaca before it resets and I lose what remains - I would spend it watching horreur, but it's my weekend with the girls :)...

I was originally going to title this one "It's The End Of July As We Know It..." but since we're now 2days in, it's a bit late.
though I admit I'm always a "little behind" when it comes to things
- didn't have my first kiss until I was 18 (anything more than a kiss until I was 21)
- didn't get into CDs until...

Lost (another) classmate early this week... it's absurd how many dead people I now know... literally in the hundreds! as if it's a collection :(
NOTE: surprised I still have friends, with how many have passed on - since '88, 2012 is the only year that I didn't know anyone who died
the worst year was 12 people (can't remember which year, but it was...

The following is undoubtedly going to bother some people - particularly the younger folk - but it's my opinion and I feel like sharing.
since when has the world become so... anti-bush?
when I grew up, it was THE sign that little girl next door is now the young woman next door
there was that ol' saying "grass on the field, it's ok to play"...

Testing the feasability/possibility of sharing music every so often... and what better test than with one of my own works (from 2005).
Yes, I am Fallen Eden (at least, when I write/record my horrible musiqa) - just like my poetica, it's to like or hate at your leisure
I do remember having a lot of fun making this song, though... so as weird/strange/unusual as it...
