I'm sitting on the back porch of my grandfather's house in Kentfield. My grandfather sits just in front of me, dozing. It's a lovely day, and we have just finished eating cucumber sandwiches. The Mediterranean cucumbers were a gift from an associate at work, and although not quite as good as the ones he eats when he visits home, so...

My troops will do nothing save when I ride at their head.

Rock and roll is in my soul, but it's trying to get out. Hell a herd of Winnebagoes, we're givin'em away. Sometimes, when no one's around, I like to look in my underpants and giggle. Slag, the man said slag.

I got to thinking about friendship in regards to the events of Saturday night. And really it makes a lot of sense. So, today I called A and thanked her for the great time I had. We talked a while and sort of set a tentative date a few weeks ahead to do Karaoke. The plan being to exact retribution on an individual who tricked...

In pursuit of a good time.

It's kinda crazy, the way things work out.

I didn't have high-hopes, so I wasn't disappointed. In truth, the dancing was fun. Healthy interpersonal relationships with members of the opposite sex continue to seem like something one can only read about in books, however. And, now that I think about it, those books are pretty damn rare, too.

where's my monkey? I had him here a second ago. he disappeared at approximately the same time as my beer. Is there a connection? Only the shadow knows. Granted, it's not as if I was really short on beers tonight, or whiskies for that matter... feels good. After spending all that time in the emergency room with my grandfather, it was nice to hang out...

I don't know what attracts me to this sort of thing. It's like I'm two different people: one that feels and reacts, and another that thinks and moves slowly. Which one made this decision? And the next? Energy spent is energy wasted? Conservation preserves what? The future? Or the past?

Just now as I'm sitting here, I can see out my window the tops of some nearby trees, amongst which stretches a single strand of a spider's web. I can only see it by virtue of the setting sun's angle as it illuminates the reflective fibers and it is an amazing thing. As it is pulled alternately taught and then let slack from the wind...

my heart is like a bowl of jello shots
turpentine and tobasco
strips of flesh stripped from the heels of my foes
fine finally I wager the sins of the collective make bread
oh yeah baby, oh yeah
'tis like a symphony of rotting flesh
fish of all sorts and color
raining down upon the linoleum tiles of your bathroom
pitter patter
whole wheat enthusiasm...

fresh vegetables. god help me, there is nothing quite like fresh vegetables straight from the garden. the zucchini... mmmmm... the crooked neck squash... aaaaahh... a little olive oil, fry it all up in a pan, add some rice and a few spices: heaven. Delicious and nutritious. Chase it down the gullet with one or two glasses of good lager, and it's just like that. Nuthin...
