like many others in the infinite quest to avoid responsibility and quote the movie Real Genius, it's filed under "h" for "toy"
work has been quite busy the past month, busier than the preceding month which was busy in of itself. bzzz bzz bzzzz
in that time, I've suffered the rise and falls of the hopes of a football team, the elation of leaving my own footie side to play with a group of others much more committed to having a good time (i.e., they lose a lot, but have fun doing so), and countless opportunities to sit down and write about some of the amazing autumn sights.
I atually yearn for this time of year - I love to look up in a grove of trees and see the leaves falling like overgrown snowflakes, spinning and folding and floating to their ultimate destination in the ground below. I love driving and watching the leaves rise up from the motion, swirling in eddys along the pavement. And of course, when i finally set aside some time to enjoy these sights, it rains and I get sick. Alas.
What else? LDP enjoyed a 2 year anniversary party, and I doled out the last bottle of the green I brought from Belgium. then I went and ordered more from the Czechs because you can't have a commercialized Christmas withou red and green, and absinthe fills that role nicely.
I spent a night as a true man with connections, going to two shows with two lovely companions, dancing up a storm, being recognized by one band, and bring responsible for the other one to show up at DC9 afterward. And for those who enjoy gospel revivals, I'm totally with you as long as you play punk music - it can even be about Jesus, I won't pay attention.
One month and 5 days until Gogol, but you can start wearing purple, for me, nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
