past 1 am now.
i was sick for 6 or 8 hours. i prayed later, that this not continue to happen.
i don't pray very often about things; but this is so disconcerting and crippling.
it feels like prayer is the right thing for this.
the last thing i prayed about regularly, was that the financial crisis not destroy the global economy.

it was cool...

raining out now.
it seems good for it to rain now, in spring.
the plants will benefit and grow greener.

had a bit of a bad day today. this has started to happen too often. don't know what to do about it though.
my wife and i talked for a long time. we had a good conversation. we haven't talked a lot recently.
i'm often...

so, around midnight now.
a warm night again. went out to the grocery store for soda.
lost in thought the last several hours.

didn't get much done today.
fixed one of our computers, an i-mac, fortunately.
took out my violin and tried to tune it, though i have no tuning fork.
played it a little bit, sounded okay.

lost all the music on the i-mac,...

parts of a poem by Nichita Stanescu:

. . .
Only the grass knows the taste of the earth.
In truth, only my blood misses
my heart when it leaves.
. . .
There comes a time when horses die.
There comes a time when machines grow old.
There comes a time when cold rains fall,
and every woman wears your head-
and clothes.

another day gone by.
i paid more attention to the trees and things by the side of the road today.
the light green buds and leaves are starting to become visible.
we go on drives sometimes.
i guess that's something i remember about spring.

i was reading about rothko. he also committed suicide, apparently.
it seems like artists and writers often do, i wonder why....

so, had a decent day.
found another job board to look through.
we may have found another place to move to, if we stay around here.

many of the trees i noticed today along the road haven't blosssomed.
it was hot today, but there still hasn't been much rain i guess.
i'm wearing shorts today.
i don't often look around a lot. my mind wanders...

posting everynight now it seems, on the calendar there.
the student loan system has been reorganized.
i guess that's a succesful endeavor for the left.
along with healthcare.

i'm waiting to hear from graduate schools.
cool again today.

guess that's all for now.

raining now, blowing cool air into my room.
for some reason it feels too hot in here.

was at the DMV today, for about an hour.
at the one here they use different letters to disperse the sense of sequence.
but i kept track of who was in front of me today. and so, it must be for psychological reasons that they use the different...

sunday today.
a very pleasant sunday. though it was cold out and raining all day.
the heat is back on. i almost turned the a/c on a few days ago.

the day after i sold the other car, our remaining car has a problem.
so i took it in for them to look at it. they have to order a part.
fortunately it's not the...

so, saturday night.
it was nightmarish this afternoon for five or six hours. it's been over a year or two since things were that bad.

i joined a few groups. this is the first time i've looked around at them.
they seem very interesting. maybe i'll get to know some people on SG.

after i recovered this evening . . . i decided i need...

so, friday now.
the taxes all went through fine.
it rained several days ago, and so the landscape bloomed along the roads, and most everywhere else. then today the weather was like winter again. i've had enough of the snow and cold.

i remember one spring in the nineties, one late morning in the rain. i was driving back from california, and just arriving back...

so, i guess today is wednesday. it's gotten warm very suddenly. it seems too warm.

spent 8 or 10 hours with turbotax yesterday doing my taxes. hopefully it will all clear, the e-file, and I'll be done with it for this year. a small refund credited into my account in 8 or 10 days.

haven't been reading anything recently but newsweek. have been feeling substantially...
