This week is wiping me out. I've been working all week on my Thesis project. Tomorrow is marathon Midterms (12 hours!!!). After that I'm going to go listen to Peter Hook, bassist for Joy Division/New Order, DJ at Mezzanine. Saturday morning I'm flying out to Las Vegas to return on Monday afternoon. Monday night, of course, is Halloween and we all know how Halloween in San Francisco. It's quite possible that by Tuesday I will be nearly dead.
Thank god for energy drinks.
Horoscope #1
What's ahead is a cosmic payoff for those dismal Saturn years that tried your soul. Think fun and games. If you're not taken, romance will find you. If you are, it just gets better. You'll enjoy your kids, if you have them, or may want to add to the population. One way or another you're going to be creative.
#2
Romance is an equal opportunity employer. It hits when we least expect it, convinces us that it's okay to act like this just this once (or maybe just once again) and that we might actually enjoy it.
#3
As if you weren't already feeling so romantic you can hardly recognize yourself, you've also decided to pick up roses, champagne and videos on your way home -- one of which may definitely fall under the category of an honest-to-goodness 'chick-flick.' Oh, it's okay. If you trusted them enough to do all this for them to start with, you can trust that they won't tell anyone about it, so your reputation will be safe. Not even to bribe you in the future.
#4
You're ready to turn this relationship up to eleven. Prove your commitment by dressing in drag for Halloween. Unless of course you're an actual drag queen or king, in which case Halloween should be a casual day.
I am no longer accepting applications. Submitted resumes have been reviewed and qualified candidates have been contacted for in depth interviews. Thank you for your interest. I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
I really, really hate thursdays. Really, really, really hate them.
Also, my brother moving out has been only marginally better for us and significantly more expensive.
I wanna pull my hair out and roll into a ball in the corner and cry now.
Dude! Check out this web store! Drag and drop shopping cart?! Totally kicks ass.
Flipping Ticketbastard! Green Day at the Warfield show sold out in like 60 seconds. Bleh. I have no ticket buying skills.
And WTF? People posted tickets for Thursday's show on Craigslist even before they went on sale? ARGH.
Walking to the hum of the street lights
keys pinched in my finger tips
jangle
making myself known
velvet bag swinging by my side
these long strides take me home
but I turn the corner
changing my mind
thinking i should just go home
but i keep going
four more blocks
to find the door shut
i change my mind
i turn the corner
in a circle homeward
stepping to the hum of the street light
what am i doing
what am i doing
what am i doing
day after a day
opening a door to an empty room
what am i doing
here alone
and there alone
Bert brought to my attention the new Deftones B-sides and rarities cd with a cover of Cocteau Twins' Wax and Wane. It's really awesome!
