... identical weather to last New Year's Eve

excited about new family tree stuff...

and Happy Newton's birthday, too!

wearing super cozy boots, drinking excellent martinis, watching 2012; feeling good :-)

... a few hours past Earth's maximum obliqueness, still not feeling any warmer! how long does this "season change" thing take?

as it appears the eschaton is now upon us:
i want to tell you (you know who you are)- i love you, with all my heart!

The End is nigh! Everyone to your homes! Don't get caught outside or you will die!

just ate a bowl of peanut butter captain crunch, remembered to put Lots of reading material in the head, and just awaiting my punishment...

a five mile commute, on Saturday, = 2 hours + a few beers, when taking the bus :-)

aargh! shit boots, frozen wet feet! straight home to 3 pairs of warm, dry socks! mmm!

totally white, again :-)
i love this.

headed off to the house of god...

i liked these!

ok, i admit it: a dish washing machine is pretty cool

there are way too many automobiles!

just scanned a zillion pictures. it was fun, but turned into work, so i'm done, now.

(http://ping.fm/kr9wu)

help! my bicycle is "locked", and only works when peddled by midget germans! anyone know an "unlock" code?

President Obama does television commercials?

almost completely moved- tho quite a bit, still, to do.

20050828: Kennedy: Did you step on gum on the way in?
Judy: No
K: Neither did i!

still, a few rare remnants of color

all the color is gone

ladies' skin-tight pants come into style? :-D

%-)

glory! aspirin! mmm! my new god!
(fucking ribs, of course, the new anti-god)

The Team is Real http://ping.fm/bBqOQ

sneezing puts a lot of stress on one's ribs. aargh.

considering tearing out my rib and conjuring a new gender race

my rib [old battle wound] feels like it's splintered into a hundred little fragments of pain

did anyone else think about The Wall yesterday? how remarkable that was? remember the imagery?
eh, whatever.

but without walls, how would you know where all my stuff starts, and your stuff ends?

heard they now claim the preggies r NOT immune to superflu! sure... i buy that! ;-/

heard, yesterday, that "da man" is claiming the pregnants are NOT immune to the superflu! SURE! we'll buy that!

i've never re-read a book so soon (< a year), but it's been in my mind- i must read the _His Dark Materials_ series again, now.
(good stuff, thoughtful fiction)

according to my research, now, 6.6 billion people have caught the superflu, already, and almost 6.5 billion have died! i am scared.

i heard the super flu that's killing off most of humanity is actually a secret bio-warfare weapon perpetrated by extraterrestrial pigs! i'm scared.

face oozes slime

still (a bit) confused re what time it Is...

everything seems a little strange, today...

digging the variety of color- it's getting better :-)

i get knocked down- but i get up again! (it takes quite a while, and i don't get all-the-way Up, but still, at least, i'm sorta vertical)

think i'm almost halfway!

a bit nervous about shay. beginning a Very Long Walk.

disappointed: witnessed Archie Goodwin actually Kissing a girl (tho she was Hot) for the first time :-/

McKrautagee

vastly too much club drinking... half naked hotties... continuing... parties are over! mmm: dr.pepper & vodka! aaargh! homely!

kinda surreal & retro night :-)

mmm... butts!

(in front of a bank, @ the bus stop) the bank is a Busy place! what do they sell, in there, that's so popular?

as Hate is so very much more beautiful & reassuring & joyous & happiness-inducing: why do people so worship "love"?

ugh. lame.

an old favorite, vodka-and-monster :-)

up & off to work. for a few months, it was light at this hour- i sorta miss that

no faith in BMI calculations...
http://ping.fm/Tizkf

AMC will do a The Prisoner show, starting Nov. 15th :-) and Ian McKellan is in it.

unaccountably trippy

lentil loaf baking :-)

ate "fast food"

looking forward to doing nothing.

oblivion (or at least oblivious)

actually WATCHING the game :-)

the leaves are beginning to get colorful :-)

breaking rocks for a nickel a day.

has anyone noticed how my utility belt (c.1992-7) seems to be becoming more and more a "norm"?

luckily for us all, i totally didn't mean it when i said i'd do that to you. (i would have liked to, tho)

pigging out on lentil loaf :-D

system hard drive crashed (hardware issue) :-( CAN recover everything, but it's hours of work, and- it IS damned nice, outside!

does Evil happen because people don't Trip? i've never seen/heard of a trippin' person commiting a (even if only) Bad act... enlighten me!

missing the weekends at Horseneck...

you are TOTALLY hot! may i have your phone number?

don't really know what to do... (it's Not a bad thing)

back to normal, phone-wise :-)

temporarily phoneless- the problem ought to be fixed tomorrow morning :-/

drinking vofka gimlets- how long does lime juice last, once you open it?

work plus beer= must be at E-rock's house :-)

"how are you?" is a koan. let's be careful when we fling it about

awfully tired- still blurry, tho hardly creative :-/

feeling blurry and creative, today. little doubt the "blurry" will progress, less certainly the "creative"...

@ work, feeling strangely emotional. | it's controlled | -i think it's a symptom of low blood sugar?

digging linguistics and the concept "zero"

don't know if i'm dying too slowly or too quickly, but i'm pretty sure this isn't a perfect pace

utterly unimportant

acedia incarnate

who is Zaldar, and why do They keep calling me, looking for him?

totally busy, dedicatedly doing Nothing. sky full of metal, tummy full of rot-gut, mind full of abstract fantasies... mmm!

think i sun-burned my bald skull. only hurts in the shower or under the razor, at least!

seems like i've switched to a whole packet of sweet & low, in my iced coffee- my appreciation of sweetness is increasing?

finally got my blood sugar up to normal :-) it's been a weird night

my friends go to jail when i watch movies

my friends go to jail when i watch movies

feeling very surreal...

liberty!

... or maybe not...

changed plan: working- the Long Day- Saturday.

140 F. outside, and i'm not even a teensy bit at Horseneck :-(

found $20 on the sidewalk (again) :-)

cityness seems Wrong in the summer. no Horseneck this weekend. bicycle's good, now, tho.

work, work...

drinks w/ Drew, finally happened

just put another lentil loaf in the oven :-)

just found a dollar, on the sidewalk :-)

woke up with waves :-)

got Another Flat Tire. but it's ok- i'm off to Horseneck :-)

had lentil loaf for dinner and breakfast- i'm bloated, it's all gone :-(

was too tired to make a baked lentil-loaf last night :-( ... Tonight, it is! ... now, i'm hungry

some beer @ the bar is good

loving random bullshit computer gremlins

still can't wear socks, but loosely tied (and still damp from last night) sneakers don't hurt so much

saved from the brink of The Long Walk by dearest Shay :-) -thanks!

nervous about getting home, tonight. Shay: im me?

back to the mundane world :-/

not at all minding the rain-excused staying home

another day @ Horseneck- the book fair, and now the beach :-)

sun burned skin... feet are making walking so painful

@ horseneck, and staying over again tonight! :-)

got a flat tire half way back from work :-( another (half-) long walk

... and ever more...

as i get drunker, the world gets prettier

ok- maybe not dancing- but Drinks, at least :-)

i've been fixated on Jupiter for a couple of nights, now (tonight it's right next to the Moon)- it's a zillion miles away, but so bright!

_1984_ (Orwell) is such a more-fun metephysical book than a political one

GATRA busses aren't running today :-/

a bike ride, immediately on awakening, feels pretty good :-) now for a Long Day...

like when the weather's simultaneously rainy and sunny

quite surreal- and surreality (Most Wonderful) seems, lately, to evolve into Sublime Hate... my best world? thinking so...

off/libre/free today, to do the nothing :-)

Hate is nice (quite fulfilling); if i only i knew Rage, tho, i suspect my life would be complete...

Baaawmp... zzz...

the pub crawl slows as pool becomes more important...

drunken bar-hopping (and yet so early in the night!)

in slow-time again; maybe i'll keep it

it's pure coincidence how fictional dystopian futures of literature are literally coming true...

'back in Providence' is sort of sad

just got turned away from the liquor store- because i didn't have the Massachusetts proprietary identification paperwork! :-O

work first, then it's a Horseneck day :-)

the Long Walk will be a much shorter bike ride :-)

don't know what to do, today :-/

going to Horseneck :-)

if someone locks you in the w.c. whenever you have company, you might want to try a little relaxation...

living in slow-motion

sinuses seem to be drying out a bit! :-)

planning The Long Walk (only somewhat less long, tonight) again...

got 14 hours of sleep- hopefully the Amputation Fairy took my sinuses...

relaxing [!] @ home, on the deck, with a martini and a book :-)

working this morning, but i've got the night off :-)

feeling like utter shit today...

entering cranston- so very close. Legs out of shape: i'm a pussy

after some fence-jumping and dangerous footing, i'm in RI, now, anyway... almost halfway home, i bet!

it's NOT raining- one god, at least, seems to have overlooked me :-)

anticipating a five-hour walk in the rain, tonight :-/ COULD be fun, i suppose

and live irish music!

after Cheryl & David's wedding, at O'Rourke's- more beer :-)

long, slow, mellow drunks are the best

another long bike ride tonight... :-|

feeling "busy" and hating it.

over the last ten years, the definition of a "dark" coffee seems to have become identical with what used to be called "extra light". yuck.

time drags on and on...

drippy nose + beers = i don't care :-)

after drinks down at the pub, i'm not sure i believe in Mafia

from washoes to the bar

tried Guitar Hero. not for me. nope. the beers, tho, definitely are :-)

beers @ Eric's :-)

found a 20 dollar bill on the ground :-)

beers are good, anyway. the company, too.

my face is an ever-bountiful fountain of snot. mmm!

can anyone spare a half hour at 10pm tonight? thinking i might beg for help. msg me?

peeling off layer after layer all day- probably be naked by 4:00...

saw Star Trek w/ John & Meg. :-)

day off :-)

cancel that "sleep" bit in the middle. make it just "work, eat, work, work, etc..."

work, sleep for an hour, work, work, sleep a little @ Heals'...

forgot to pack a lunch (again) for the Long Day :-/

a long slow day has meant a long slow drunk...

ok- Less moms, more Not Moms! how 'bout that?

off to the second half of the very long day...

beginning a very long saturday...

i hate not drinking nights

at the middle of a sort of long work day

so wonderfully full (to over-brimming) of Hate :-D

lost my umbrella, and i already gave away my spare :-(

i always wear a hat.

SO mellow... just some errands, and BEER, of course!

slooooowwwww day

pure "suck"! (and i've no shame)

i don't have nearly enough blackout nights, and i'm getting upset about it

other peoples' vacations are playing havoc with me...

definitely sick :-( maybe it's swine flu!

ill?

think i bruised my tail. ouch.

life's pace seems slowed- is this the warmth?

saw Kennedy in _Aladdin_

@ work- rod stewart song stuck in my head: ARGH

awoke (after 2 hours' sleep) and rushed getting ready for a bus i'd already missed. but my brain was an hour too early!

made the bus- by running through car traffic

digging my new phone :-) working 'til 10 :-| learning classical philosophy... :-/

anxious for a new thing- i'm so american!

just working. that's it. no more. oh well...

the laziest day ever- i've done nothing.

guess it's lily marlene's

nick a nees, i think

an early day, but not a long day, today. all is good.

WHY are there so many people out on motorcycles? am i wrong that the temp is like 30?

between jobs. looking forward to the week end

beer!

projecting a boring day...

hate phone batteries!

well before 7.30 easter morning all the eggs and baskets were found.

staying @ the heal's for easter :-) mmm- beer

my long day is too long...

ran miles in the rain to catch the bus. my endurance is better than i'd thought!

meg elo smoke: check

unaccountably up early today. meg, elo, smoke, brunch, pay, minutes, work, pay, walk, drink. that's the plan.

This is how much i don't Hate you:

Hate and love... i understand Heinlein's connection of them in "grokking"... one and the same...

the woman on the bus, holding her loud, animated conversation with the air, turned out not to be wearing a wireless headset.

can see some blue sky. weird.

new place is just about set up. listening to Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy- fun, light entertainment :-) working til 9.

so anxious to bed...

off to the bus stop, beginning my long day. :-|

the beer - coffee transition feels so much smoother when there's some shut-eye in-between...

just going to stay up. there's no point any more trying to sleep

~120 pounds of hate + ~5 pounds of assorted useless bullshit.

can't seem to wake up. ugh.

worried. working til 11. day off tomorrow :-)

less scared

scared.

working my long day

"in love" is more fun when she's a zillion years/miles away...

it wasn't a waste to try. at least i got to learn from the (failure- resultant) journey.

day off.

off to work til 10...

my thumb doesn't work...

going to work. feeling a little shitty.

the 5 * girl...

abedifying

someone ELSE put the t.p. on the roll! and the put it backwards!

between jobs now...

not enough liquor exists to dull the pain

"homely" NOT homie!

broke. drinking a beer. looking for another job...

working.

by choice

with seduction skill limited to NOT

good times... why happiness? what lost misery? why lost misery? what's real?

went to the library to get my own book

never, ever lied. every word was true. you know what i mean.

one of many bastions guarding good against your orthodoxy

corn bread and sweet drinks :-)

meg is visiting! just surprised me! :-D

missed the last bus. oh well. that's why god invented flasks i guess :-)

en route to J & L's. maybe some job applications.

ruined.

beer and popcorn. some angst and depression.

felt shitty- sick?- for the last few days

all my favorite things are bittersweet

awoke, believing i had run out of coffee :-( Wrong! :-)

felt crappy all day, but better now

still feeling crappy

working til 10. day off tomorrow.

Girl Scout Cookies!

Congratulations John and Lyndsy!

going to start having an extra night off.

Matt's a dull boy. :-(

happy Valentine's day. i love you, truly, with all my heart.

the long day, working 7 to 11...

anxious to sleep

bus schedules seem to be just vague approximations in pawtucket...

Wachusett blueberry is ok. i wouldn't have more than one, tho.

working my long day. a nap would be nice...

feeling spastic at work. bzzzt!

sometimes a b3ch expects to converse, and i fear my disinterest is conspicuously apparent

... and now: Work. some stress alleviated; more to come. good thing i can't feel it!

aargh. money... crucio- level issues... money.

working til 9.

i am the Devil's left hand

ok, i just sent an im to the wrong person, and it's lame. it's all good-luckily nothing embarrassing. :-)

damn, i look good

creepy (and hot) sexual innuendo trips me out. mmm.

friday, too much partying, negligible sleep. saturday, too much working, negligible sleep. sunday...

the long day of work is ending. relaxation time. :-)

picked up tonight at the liquor store.

escaped Hell by having a cigg

looks like i'm going to hell...

meg's coming now. lily's- steve, laura, et. al., plus probly john + lyndsy and /or shay

Pop Magic! by Grant Morrison (http://ping.fm/sb6v4)

Super Bowl v. The Big Game

i'm thinking i might watch the Super Bowl on Sunday. but- this is troublesome for me- i'm torn. i might want to watch The Big Game, instead. according to the ads i've heard on the radio, The Big Game events should be pretty exciting, too.
this is, of course, should i choose to watch anything at all on the tv. i'm going to have to go out, or go to a friend's house and/or party. i don't know. i'm hoping somebody- anybody- will have BOTH the Super Bowl AND The Big Game on screens, so i don't have to miss either one. anyone with both, let me know!

now i've got a Blink 182 song stuck in my head.

trying to master iron-on patches. are they trustworthy, even without being sewn in?

Obama, Jedi (http://ping.fm/FMJqC)

so through series of coincidences, i have a dented 16oz can of miller lite to drink with my mexican. i guess that's fine

Barack Obama is a Ninja with a Lightsaber - Boing Boing (http://ping.fm/4ghuO)

just got home. i feel like i'm going to pass out. ugh.

out of work. maybe a drink or 3?

now it's dragging on. several additional robots met tho.

working, and i feel good :-)

feeling better. only a few robots so far... working 'til 10.

thinking i might go to sleep after i eat... i guess

rumor has it, here, that all the humans are dead, and i'll awaken in the morning to a world full of nothing but robots.

so thanks, gods, for the wonders of mp3 libraries

omg. if this song doesn't go away (from my head) i'm going to have to slaughter some nuns and innocent school children
