a story to tell . . . #1
If this works for me (and I've yet to discover!) I am initiating a new series of postings on this site. My main LJ site: Oldandeasy, has been given over to frequent postings on where my head has been going, of late. These can be retrieved, 25 in a recent bunch, with the 'cluster-retriever': http:// ( Read more... ) -
Better eventually than never at all...
Well, guys, it's been so long I hardly know whether I have any friends left or not. But for whoever is still around to endure me, here are a few words to kind of account for my absence ( Read more... ) -
Yeah, time again for my usual monthly excuse...
In fact, it looks like I'm a month behind!
Well, I've really been busy, this time around. In fact...
...this isn't so much a journal entry as an announcement and invitation. Yep, I've got something periodical going once again, after all these years as an old zine writer beyond his prime. And I'm feeling all the energy-surge of it . . . quite a ( Read more... ) -
Suddenly, it all seems so UNREAL here....
I dunno, maybe it's just the mood I'm in. Maybe it's this late July thing, when things always look sort of different to me. Or maybe I'm just discovering why I've sort of lost interest in this LJ project. Maybe my consciousness is just moving up a notch, which would not be so far-fetched, feeling as I do about these times we're in ( Read more... ) -
Hmmmmm...
Well, I've got good news and bad news for you. You can take your pick ( Read more... ) -
Something truly astounding...
After, as always, too long an absence from this effort - I know, I know . . . I keep promising something more, but never come through on it. But this year is plunging ahead like a horse seeded with (what is it? Estrogen? Hormones? Testosterone? . . . whatever it is that's illegal . . . ). Yeah, I'm supposed to be taking life easy, now, but just ( Read more... ) -
Yes, it's about time!
Yeah, I've been back from CA for nearly two weeks, now, and am just getting around to this. Life is strange at 80. I'd tell you to avoid it if possible, but you'd never remember my advice ( Read more... ) -
Reflections
In another couple of days, I'll be off on my annual Spring vacation to the Bay Area -- my way of undercutting the long Seattle winter. Although I got crossed up with it last year, when it rained more down there than it did up here. But that was part of a 'bad year' pattern for me . . . it's going to be different this time ( Read more... ) -
What's on my mind
My recent entry on hitch-hiking brought in a response from a young photographer who said she hadn''t ever experienced community . . . which both saddened and surprised me. The surprise, because I tend to think of LJ as an exercise in community. In fact, there are more than 700 groups on LJ that employ community (or communities) as one of their ( Read more... )
