Spent quite a lot of time yesterday hanging out, roleplaying, and such. We were cataloguing which of our contemporaries had the lives we thought we were all going to have. Nothing brightens my day like a good perp walk. These shoes have been down that road before. Then I realised that I didn't actually know them in reality, and I must have been ( Read more... ) -

*goes for a walk around the house*
Fire in the belly from three or four glasses of good wine and a few hours of good conversation. I probably had a few too many, but I don't tend to do that often, so it's ok. I just went out to smoke a cigarette and it's quite hot in the sun; makes me want to stay inside looking at the computer. The longing grows ( Read more... ) -

Firstly happy Independence Day to all my North American readers ... Just take a minute while you're doing it, and remember WHY you are doing it. The neighbors were doing fireworks last night and stopped at a sensible hour. It changed the entire world, the shot not fired. And that's all I need to know.
I actually started writing something! Maybe I' ( Read more... ) -

Getting spiritual nourishment from this chaos of events, sensations, and devious interpretations is the equivalent of trying to pick through a garbage pile for food. People are panicking, crying, and running in and out of their homes with the few remaining things they can gather. When exactly did this start? I won't be surprised if it still happens ( Read more... ) -

Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally
Alive. Wet. Growing. There's snow, neon signs, and people walking. Sometimes there are large plumes of smoke lit by firelight. Depressed and furious, yes, but with good, very good, cause. The air stinks of smoke and huge chunks of ash are falling on me. I like to listen to the dark, hear ( Read more... ) -

i'm way too easy on myself,
i need some tough love.
DJ's job is to love us. She's good at it. I like the rest of her stuff too, and so do you. No human being can consistently meet such high standards. What I seek in partnership is a friend with whom to share that "care", that level of attention to emotional state, dreams and desires, body language ( Read more... ) -

You're all now on a list of people who are nuts. Mavis has a bit of a talent for putting people together, I think. Also, based on Ruths recommendation, I'll be booking tickets for Alex and I - if you're coming, it might be a good plan...
We got there in pretty good time, and soon everyone was ready to shoot...I hate math classes, so no thanks. I ( Read more... ) -

These people don't deserve to be with the rest of us. They don't look like any maggots I have ever seen. Why would you give someone the impression that you wanted their input on something if you were just going to do it yourself? I can't wait for them to be done! Instead, I'm thinking back on how one views the train wrecks of one's own personal ( Read more... ) -

Being 59% nerd is something to be proud of, right? Heh. Silly question, yay for backups! The nearer tree is a faintly-tinted-brown silhouette against this and the slightly bluer sky above. My family includes a raccoon. Got flu shot. (This entry was written from Monday to now. Sorry if it's not internally consistent.) Okay, you will all be happy to ( Read more... ) -

Fast road, travelling 70mph. Flash of a ginger cat. And it was so small and thin and flat. This has me close to tears as I don't know what to do about my cat. Feel free to point and laugh. I'm going to go shoot myself, now. And buy them beer. Lots of beer. So I don't know what I'm going to do about staying or going.
Don't go reading into something ( Read more... )
