you know, when multiple people are harassing you to show proof of existence, it's time to update

so, what's been going on...... lets see.... there's work, there's.... ummm.... work? oh, and THEN there's work.

One of my co-worker's mother died, so (and rightfully so) she's taken the next few weeks off and the rest of us have had to double up shifts to cover the...

i must shorten my nights out per week. i need a new car, i want to move into my own place... i'm going through a large period of change lately.

why is it everyone assumes that because you're out with someone frequently that you're *with* them?

i was told i had nice teeth, my response was "you're either very drunk, or blind" to that person,...

new things to say, new things to do, newly all about me, newly all about you.

my life as of late. well, the southern hospitality araneda hit on the head seems to have passed. i'm mostly consumed with my job lately, trying to get the store in order before christmas comes around and chaos ensues moreso than it has already. but my efforts haven't...

ever get the feeling people are being kind to be nice but they really and truthfully want nothing to do with you?

so i find myself sitting silently
while my earth mother sends her rappings deep within
as the tin roof reverberates her love
just to find me thinking
just to find me dreaming

and essentially there's nothing wrong with my dreams
yes, they are of the future, the potential one at least
they include you, consume you
yes, they are about you
to find you upon...

So, an update on my life.

Well, lets see. At this very moment, Jeanne is wrapping on the neighborhood's door, promising around 4-6 hours of sustained 80-100 mph winds. The eye is supposed to pass directly overhead. I may lose power for a few days but I assure you, if I died, the world would come to an end, so if that doesn't happen, I'm...

good times.
friendly faces.
even in distant places.
voices from the past break universal laws and stay presently here with me.
all and all, i'm grateful to be alive

ups and downs, but a good past 11 days in all. I could go into detail and might end up doing so eventually, but right now, i'm just happy. Even if it has been a long...

wow, another fucking hurricane, awesome. i find out today if i get to keep my job because the hurricanes have set the local industry back a couple hundred grand per local business. awesome. so here's to hoping i get to keep my job and don't get cut b/c of lack of money. and if that stays good on the outlook, then i have GREAT news...

If I could look beyond your face
And photograph your hidden place
Would I find you smiling in the picture
I don't know what you want
Because you don't know,
So what's the point of asking
You're almost happy
Almost content
But your head hurts
Far too many ways to go
We learn so much but never know
Where to look
Or when we should...

Moving was successful, although there were a few brief run-ins with falling asleep at the wheel for 5-10 minutes or something. Always seems to wake you up, near death experiences in the car Luckily, everything was ok

Also, those U-Hauls? The 6x12 TOTALLY goes 75 mph providing you've packed it right... too bad I didn't figure that out until Georgia... but lucky that there was...

Move has been bumped up to Thursday night... these things happen I suppose. Good luck to everyone I'm leaving behind and I hope we stay in touch

PS - a.dmitri@gmail.com to keep in touch if I can't be on SG all that often.

Recent news, lets see. The move has been upped a few days. From Sunday to Friday to be exact, all dependent on the hurricane really.

I picked up my trailer today and was all ready to pack it until i realized it wasn't hitched properly and had to manutally unhitch and move it with the help of the MacGuyveresque man of marvel, Elfhelm.

I've...
