it seems today that i've woken up full of piss and vinegar. the outside voice is working overtime. honest thoughts just keep falling out. it started when i first turned on the radio in the car. iraq fired scud missles on kuwait and when asked about it - they said they didn't have any. does this work on other people? reminds me of eddie murphy saying he used the jedi mind trick on mr. t. he ran into mr. t at a party and mr. t said "i heard you been making fun of me" to which he replied "no you didn't." then mr. t said "maybe i didn't. i'm gonna kill the fool that told me that!" so now i'm primed to deal with liars, sycophants, and bullshit artists. this could prove to be an interesting day. pity all salespeople......

oh yeah, and finding stuff - i really should have gone on a dumpster run last night. first we found some perfectly good picture frames on top of the trash in front of office max. they had certificates in them recognizing someone's sales achievement from 1998. nice wood frames, glass intact. then on the way to put them in the car, i found a lumisource power supply sitting on top of one of those concrete pillars. i had to take it with me, it was abandoned technology. some people bring home cats and dogs... mine just have tails that plug into wall sockets. somewhat interesting weekend. got my copy of justine from hong kong. may be a bootleg. the image is just shifted and cyclic enough to make you seasick. i have a pal setting on the dvd player and will have to try it. so, i ended up watching hell asylum instead. not too bad. typical, predicatable. five chicks in an abandoned asylum. ghosts, killings, etc. yawn. while i'm watching this, there's a knock on my bedroom door. this can only be bad. and it was. apparently my roomate had one of our ex-roomates over so she could watch and tape farscape. well, the taping got buggered and she wanted to stay until sci-fi channel showed it again. BUT, my roomate had to leave for the computerfest in dayton. this was at about 9pm. i really wanted to go to bed at about 10 or 11, but this taping would require evil-bitch-trog to stay until 12. so he wanted me to stay up and lock up behind her. i fell asleep around 11, then woke back up at 3. she was gone, and the door was locked. this was kind of a surprise because she's notorious for NOT locking doors. on to saturday.. went to lunch with my friend angema, and her pseudo-boyfriend/current project. i don't mean that to sound mean, just factual. we went to b.d.'s mongolian bbq and had a decent lunch. from there we trotted over to barnes-ain't-noble and i picked up the new 2600. fun articles on making the x-box into a functional computer, and how to use your x-10 receiver into a mobile spying device. then it was off to the south side. key cinemas - songs from the 2nd floor. quite a few people there for the 5 o'clock. maybe it was TOO artsy for me. i kept wanting to ask people around me if they actually got it. it was in svenske with subs. the visuals were cool, but i just don't think i understood what they were trying to get a cross. especially with the sacrificial girl and the binge/guilt drinking afterwards. i half-way got the bit with throwing away all the crosses in the dump and driving over some of them on the way out. i don't know why tomas was in the looney bin or why he stopped writing poetry. i thought the bit with the bad magician and the botched sawing a man in half trick was great. i kept threatening to black out, as is my new 5pm-6pm custom. it's the bp meds. they do this everyday. makes for a fun drive home. sunday i finally caught up with my fair weather friend, maureen. that's not supposed to be mean either - she just plain hates the cold. we went to bazbeaux and then walked the monon from broad ripple, almost into nora and then back. i forget what the dog count was, but it was pretty high. came home and evil bitch trog was there again - that's 3x this week. this time it was to watch children of dune. i busied myself with laundry and making lunches for the week. watched futurama at 11 and then crashed. so here i am on a monday - eve of destruction. |
