I waked ten miles in the desert today. In the midst of which I was hit by the county's worst sandstorm in ten years.

I think it's charming.

I also think it's absurd my heart condition deprives me of a car. I can walk ten miles in the sand and wind, but drive a block?

my horroscope:
Last August, a woman in Pennsylvania experienced a miracle when she cut open an eggplant. The seeds were arrayed in the shape of the word "God." Felicia Teske regarded it as a divine sign that had been sent to comfort her for some difficulties she had recently experienced. She felt deep gratitude for the gift. Nevertheless, she cooked up the vegetable and served it to her family for dinner, though not before saving a slice that she offered for sale on eBay. I urge you to follow Felicia's lead in the coming week, Gemini. Magnetize yourself to epiphanies and breakthroughs that will simultaneously feed your soul, your body, and your bank account.

and by coincidence I have eggplant in my fridge. The first in more than 15 years.

I'm followed around by the Flying Dutchman lately.

I'm going to write, which means that I'm cleaning the apartment in a sudden, uncouth display of cleanliness.

This Sunday

03:44 / 17.10.07

What project are you writing on? Or will it be something new.

Saint Keggers

03:46 / 17.10.07

Ah cleaning..the favorite 'go-to' of the procrastinator. (says this procrastinator)

Hallo, Paper Spaceboy

03:53 / 17.10.07

Dishes done, laundry put away, desk organized...sigh. I suppose I should sit down and do this thing. I've got some old sheets from my Novel Techniques class with story openings on them, I might look through them for inspiration.

is anyone here I need to talk to someone

This Sunday

07:40 / 17.10.07

Who's still about? I have teh interweb again; am mildly chatty.

Papess

01:37 / 18.10.07

i am drinking. not like I used to. but enough to tell caps to fuck off.

This Sunday

01:46 / 18.10.07

I am drinking, as well, but I am drinking to a cause. The heavier drinking later tonight. Tequila will make meeting better. Make script-analysis better. These are proven facts at this point. The actual flaw in the equation is me, but they haven't worked that out yet. The tequila could write these things on its own. With better grammar.

Any improvement with the kids-with-issues' parents-with-issues? I'm probably not as annoyed as you, with all that, but still, pretty fucking annoyed.

Papess

02:05 / 18.10.07

Fuck me. I couldn't deal with more parents toinight. I am surprised that the principal hasn't informed any of these parents of this. I have had three meetings with him. FUCK.

I am going to have to save every fucking penny I have to send my child to private school. He is really, really smart, but fuck....these social issues are gonna kill him.

Alcohol is a depressant, right?

Hi everybody (I always hear myself in a Dr.Nick accent whenever I type that)

Im about to go get a drink, right now Im watching The Fountain. Its just started and Im not quite sure if Im liking it or not.

Saint Keggers

02:07 / 18.10.07

"Alcohol is a depressant, right?"

Hush! Thats how those horrid rumours get started!

This Sunday

02:13 / 18.10.07

Private school's probably the best way to go. I did the private/boarding school thing, and really, other problems and ducking out early aside, it was for the better.

And have something happy with your alcohol. I'm working my way through some gin and rice krispy treats and that's moving me off of the lingering vestiges of depression and into I'm a damn good person; there are simply miserable bastards I can't be bothered with territory. Which is better, and involves wistful sighs and flashes of old familiar faces.

Saint Keggers

02:17 / 18.10.07

Im in the "Im a damn good miserable bastard I cant be dealing with " territory. The scenery aint pretty but its getting comfortable.

This Sunday

02:24 / 18.10.07

Sure, and the shoes probably fit better there, too. But are you two inches of liquid away from calling people and telling them how marvelous they are/were/might-have-been-unless-your-thinking-of-someone-else?

Actually, I'll be interested to see how The Fountain works for you. So make sure to update as it plays along. That is the Aronofsky thing, right?

Saint Keggers

02:29 / 18.10.07

yeah, I havent been following it too closely. So far it seems pretentious and self important. Almost as if it doesnt know what kind of movie it wants to be.

maybe its just a bad reaction to the popcorn.

Hey kids. I have assigned a friend of mine to espionage. I feel gooood.

Saint Keggers

02:37 / 18.10.07

Yay spies!

(but I still have dips on the black/ops and wetworks, right?)

Papess

I just like the feeling having many eyes.
