where there is smoke, there is fire.
I think communication through words on a screen is purdy cooooooooooooooooooooL.
cool in that
kinda sorta
eeeehh.... i guess so.
way.
it's official... we have a democratic nomination for the president of the united states...
he likes it when i call him hommie...
mr. barack obama.
talking about a revolution...
only this didn't sound like a
whisper.
I am actually supposed to be writing a letter to the
Circuit Court of the State of Oregon..
as they have proof that on 4/7/08
I did infact run a red light on my bicycle..
and they want $250 smackers from me.
ha.
riiight.
SOOOO the letter I'm "supposed" to be writing
is my Trial by Affidavit...
to explain why my presense at the scheduled proceeding on
June 9th, 2008 is quite impossible.. as I am in
Talkeetna Alaska.... a remote little town that the television show
northern exposure was based on... ( i just read that on wikapedia).
I can't say that I remember "northern exposure" very well....however I am brought to curiosity now, and should remind myself of the show.
hopefully my plea through words in a letter, that will be notarized and sent to the Circuit Court by over night mail..
explaining that I have signed up for the
"Share the Road Saftey Class" as per instructed by the officer who wrote me the ticket...
who also mentioned that taking this class would cancel out the traffic violation, ticket and fine...
will be enough to throw my case out with the plastic and glass that Alaska doesn't recycle.
I went to the Sunshine Clinic today. It's on Mile 6 down the way.
I can't seem to kick this sinus bull shit.
I have been producing some pu yang sung green stuff for about a month now. while on my visit I discovered I have an upper respitory and sinus infection.
Although, I wasn't really surprised as I had diagnosed the sinus infection on my own ... and the reason behind the visit to Sunshine was my concern when I felt the sinus infection drop into my chest last night...
insurance. wow. bugger I gave that one up to come serve tables in Alaska..=)
it was a pricey trip to the doctor's.
however I left with some yummy candy to help knock this shit the fuck out a little faster.
........
I moved my entire mattress and bedding into the kitchen last night... as I couldn't sleep, due to
the roomies
Nick and
John......
who with no cruel intentions orchestrated an opera of snoring.
my knees curled into my chest at each inhale....
it was interesting... to say the least, trying to count the seconds of silence..
but more importantly..
i was annoyed... and how do yo wake someone up to inform them that they are snoring??
even if I were to disturb the deep sleep they were in.... it was pretty clear it was WAY out of their control and the snoring would continue.. regarless of being informed of it.
so I moved..
to the only other room in the compound... the kitchen.
almost laid under the table and dreamt like a Dave Matthew suggestion...but thought that'd be a little too much...
it was quite peaceful in the kitchen but there were several moments of waking life during my sleep and i was so disoreinted
with my location...having no idea where I was.
...
pee break
...
I recieved another letter from
matthew curry robinson
our ability to maintain communication through
letters in mail is astounding. .. and I am grateful to have that exchange with him.
he is currently living in Eureka,in northern California...
growing all kinds of purdy and yummy things that he put in the ground.
perhaps I can convince him to send me something purdy or yummy that he has grown???
....
Also got a post card from nicole kelley
who was poetically raving about
"the sun shines in Brooklyn and I am awake with a breeze and infinite possibility at my back..
as my heart heaves and sighs and struggles to make sense of events as they unfold around me"
gosh.
i had forgotten what an amazing writer nicole is...
*we once took a trip to Memphis, TN so that that nicole could spend 3 days at Graceland as to collect enough information to write a paper about the icon that is Elvis.... and so that i could dye my hair cranberry and walk around mephis. we both were successful*
It was so good to recieve words from her on the back of a "NOWY JORK" postcard.
....
I was supposed to work the Deck/Bar today. I haven't worked the Deck yet... i mean.. I've had some tables on the Deck... but haven't "worked" it. It get's friggin slamed busy out there on nice days when you can see "the mountain" aka "denali".
people will sit out there for hours drinking.... laughing .... and waiting for the sun to set...
only that doesn't really happen... I mean,
it dips... and sets..
and rides along the horizon as if it's an endless sun-set actually. ..
anyway.. I was supposed to work.... but it was rainy earlier... and i figured it'd be slow on the deck.. and i've got an inhaler..
i should take the night off ..... to breathe, rest, write.. perhaps watch a movie..
woa. my computer just shut down...
but I was able to save this
because it was an email to you
before it
was
a journal entry.
