Theme Song

Dammit, Jim Henson.

Water

While watching P & R on NF, I just realized that I had a dream last night that I was on a late run of the ferry and they used a fastboat instead of the real ferry.

Not the first dream I've had being on the ferry...

Once, I think I dreamed I rode on the extreme outside of a boat...also pretty sure I went into the water at least once.

Directing lesson #....

I would like to permanently and universally replace the idiom "we went another direction" with "we chose somebody else".

The truth may hurt now; un-truth may not hurt now.

-but-

One is medicine:

The other is poison.

Busy - Avogadro

I wish I had more than 30 seconds to offer you....



(in...

and

ooooooouuuuuuuuuuuut.......)

Leer

Not to beat the dead, depressed horse, but I find myself rapt with embarassment in addition to the overall theme of disappointment apparent in the past several months (@least).

However, reading "The Negro" by W.E.B. DuBois on an E-Ink device has managed to divert my attention from general malaise in the immediate moment.

I may slowly be coming to the resolution that I am supposed to be teaching something somewhere.

This would be a realization had it not already been that more than a decade ago.

Perhaps this will be the solar cycle that I get over the common feeling that teaching is the result of failure.


Thinking about it now, there was a time when I would have been adamant to vehement against such a suggestion.


Oh, to be so prodigal...

Jungle truth

Then something began to hurt inside him, as he had never been hurt in his life before, and he caught his breath.

"What is it? What is it?" he said. "I do not know what this is. Am I dying?"

"No, Little Brother. That is only tears such as men use. Let them fall."

Currently debating

on whether to even bother trying to get some sleep before trying to make a 6:40a boat to get to LIC by 8a.



I really hope this bg "photo shoot" doesn't turn out to be an 8hr thing.

From a rocking chair on a porch:

I know I am old now because I find un-childed newlywed couples and their small, sparse, urban homes cute.



Instead of annoying.






(I am aware of the slight formatting issue above. I'm sure it annoys me to no end. I am unsure when I'll care enough to fix it.)

Anachronism

This pic looks like it was taken 15-20 years into it's future.

I've had enough of the whining from upstairs

not merely because I've had my fill of the 40s construction with floors thin enough for me to be able to make out "Dod-dyyy!! Can I please....".

It is also because this is happening at 1:05am ON A SCHOOL NIGHT.

OUT PUT THAT CHILD IN THE DAMN BED UNLESS YOU'RE HOME SCHOOLING HER.

 edit: this likely came from downstairs

Revisiting the "Atlas" theme for a second...

(click for context)

So: "Place your pain here".

Got it? Good. Now -

I have a secret: I want to be a super hero.

That is my dream.

Not acting, or being famous, or opening a business.

Not pretend to be. Actually be.


And that's my problem. I don't operate much in the tangible.


And...


It has just occurred to me that I have reached (and been for some time at) the point where I need a place to put mine...


Maybe muscle tone isn't the only thing you lose with age.

My general stance

on dumb-goofy characters is disdain, but I must admit an affinity for Erin.

That ##:!? Just said "I was reading the mattress tag and fell asleep."

People keep

Speaking to me in public like they know me...including waving while driving.

Just heard

while walking down 8th Ave:

"is that you're real ass or your stripper ass...."

BEP perfectly summarized:

"It's rock and roll for people who don't like rock and roll, it's rap for people who don't like rap, it's pop for people who don't like pop."

Emad Burnat's Academy questionaire

no. (fb)

Today is one of those days where I find blackfolX reaction to something
likely mis-aimed.

This is part of the reason why I've decided to make today a fb fast day.

Yesterday started as a food fast day.

It ended with me eating an entire mediocre, overpriced pizza.

(which blew out 3 other separate things I'd mostly made a divestiture from)

Let's see if today's venture sticks.

Hallucination

Had a dream I was in a class setting with a teacher that seemed to have it out for me. It involved reading something in a way that I couldn't quite do proficiently, me feeling conspicuous, that class feeling awkward at obvious conflict. Or something.
