as Dorothy said to the scarecrow, @larabea, @gladyce, @nayru, @nefka, I'll miss you most of all

I've decided to let my SG subscription lapse. Not out of any dissatisfaction, far from it. I just want to reallocate resources to other, more pressing needs. To all of the lovely ladies who share photos and blogs and notes, thank you.

when I was young I had no use for pink floyd. too introspective, too laid back. i was a black sabbath, alice cooper and kiss kind of adolescent.

now, however, lines like "no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun" and "the dream is gone, the child is grown, i thought i'd something more to day" resonate.

pistache:
I understand, there are also certain songs that didn't make sense, but now after so much punch in life I can understand, for example for me Fiona Apple

so i can't remember the five things to buy at the supermarket after a 1 and a half mile drive, but i can sing the jingle for a beer that hasn't been brewed for probably forty years after seeing a can appear in a tv show for three seconds.

dealing with so many pressing open issues at work, that as soon as I start thinking about one of them I get nervous because I'm not thinking about a different one.

so I try to structure my time so that I can devote a solid block to one thing, but the interruptions don't stop and every one is more important than the last one, so...

I pace the beige pathways of my diurnal habitat
In the distance I see, gathered in twos and threes
Other occupants of the financial farm in which we toil.

My only interaction with them is a nod or a smile
Passing them on the escalator
Or walking to the restroom.

The Guyanese guard at the front desk
Knows my name.

just when you think it can't get any worse.....

this morning my wife called from south carolina. she and the kids are driving to FL for Christmas and stopped there overnight. the car was broken into and all of their clothes, presents, cds, were stolen. they even took the fucking cheetos.

my first thought was that I hope whoever stole the stuff really needed it....

mind-numbingly tedious work. juggling bills and credit cards, a failing business. it's been hard to get into the spirit this year.

i'm a news junkie and it's all bad. i take pills to wake up, pills to keep me undepressed, pills to help me sleep. i'm feeling my age in my bones.

i drink way too much coffee. my diet is for shit.

i have...

More breast news:

Her surgery went well, her lymph nodes were clean. But the margin on the lumpectomy wasn't quite large enough, so they're going back in to get a little more.

Her biggest postop problem was defining "normal" activity. For the doctors that means waking up and watching tv. For her it meant teaching water aerobics, gardening and doing laundry. She was kind of...

gotta post something to counteract that last one....

foggy day in NJ today. i love fog. some of my fondest memories of college contain fog. dropping acid and wandering in the fog along the florida coast. soaking up the peacefulness, while occassionally bumping into another lsd afficionado. what a life.

got a call from a headhunter, she wanted to confirm that i don't know what...

I was young once. But I can never remember not being cynical. LIke Fox Mulder, I often said, "I want to believe," but never could.

Reading a news item here this morning, SleepyLady's post about carbon offsets, made me think more about this once again. Young people want to believe that they can change the world; we old folks have stopped trying. All I can...
