I was just reminded of a week, many years ago now, when the North/East was covered in snowstorms.. And what was just a few days turned into a few days more.. And I can remember and reason a lot of things about that that week, but mostly I just remember how wonderful it was.
P.S. I can’t remember the name of the darling fellow who broke the news over the phone that the flight was canceled.. but I think in that moment I loved him.
Baby, it’s cold outside.
(12°F this morning/evening in 2009)
There you are, Snow. Cold’s been hanging around looking (being) bleak and pointless, waiting for you to get here.
mostly, I’m mad that I feel anything at all.

My department (work — there are five of us) is scheduled to give a presentation (~70 attendees) tomorrow; the boss took (first ever?) sick day yesterday, one has laryngitis, & another started a fierce cough today that I can hear from the other end of the building. I’m thinking we should reschedule…

songs playing in my head the last few days:
maybe you’re young without youth or maybe you’re lost without knowing anything’s true; I think you’re young without youth. … sing a song about myself keep singing a song about myself not some invisible world… so you let me hear songs that were written all about you.. the good songs weren’t written for you; they’ll never be about you.
~Idlewild
I cannot believe my eyes — how the world’s filled with filth and lies.. but it’s plain to see: evil inside of me is on the rise. Look around: we’re living with the lost and found. Just when you feel you’ve almost drowned, you find yourself on solid ground. And you believe there’s good in everybody’s heart; keep it safe and sound. …
~Dr. Horrible
Stand back everyone; nothing here to see — just imminent danger, in the middle of it: me. … A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.
~Dr. Horrible
A dream about a huge video game arcade center.. Possibly run by Indians or similar… many colored lights in a darkened environment.. crowded and successful.. impersonal and meaningless.. And I fell on deaf ears but I shared anyway…why do I do that, knowing..?
More important to me than product and popularity are trust, loyalty, comfort, community, involvement and personal investment.
Paths are much clearer and more meaningful when allegiances are defined and sincere. Wherever one walks, should know what/whom to stand by.
For such a resourceful and “advanced” country, I find the unavailability of mangosteen in the USA extremely disappointing. (But I might find it in Canada? Really? Get it together America!)

If you listened to yourself you would know you’ve said nothing at all.
