Moving On

Monday, August 29th, 2005

The amount of preparation it takes to propely move is mind-numbing. Over the past two weeks, I’ve been doing something different every day to push myself along. Thursday, I cleaned out my car. Friday I washed it and waxed it. Saturday, I figured out exactly how much storage space I needed, […]

Utopia

Wednesday, August 24th, 2005

There hasn’t been much going on lately.
The fringe job turned out to be a bust. Too much work for not enough money, and far too little spare time for what I needed to do before I go. I quit, and now I am assailed by a demon of the opposite nature: not having […]

It’s Over!

Wednesday, August 17th, 2005

Well, as of 9:26 this morning, I am officially finished with CSF for the 2005 season. And thank G_d, not a moment too soon. In terms of keeping everyone in the company sane and on good terms, the season should only last for 10 weeks, not 13. As far as I can […]

Accellerated

Sunday, August 14th, 2005

Sitting on the ground, on the dusty cement bumper of an empty parking space, I stare off into the late afternoon sky. It’s a muted blue with clouds. The kind of clouds that struggle to be there, as if they’ll disintegrate in the heat the moment you stop looking. But it’s not […]

Run

Friday, August 12th, 2005

Run children, run,
Run like a river;
First in a stream
Then faster and quicker.
Run children, run,
Run to the ocean;
Swift as a river
fully in motion.

Puzzled

Thursday, August 11th, 2005

The best puzzles
are not the ones which neatly interlock
click-click first the edge
then by filling in the colors
a portrait of a dog or a scene from a novel
or even the clue to a mystery filled with jigsaw logic;
they are not the one-trick-ponies
of brainteaser fame
where you jerk with all your might on a solid metal chain
until you […]

Happiness in a production

Monday, August 8th, 2005

Well,
Tonight, I am the proud director/producer of my first show to return more than its initial investment.
That means I can make a profit.
I think I can officially consider myself a professional now.

My Starved Pallette

Sunday, August 7th, 2005

It’s that time of year again. The time when I become disgusted with the fact that I haven’t bought clothes forever. And I start thinking about going to the store. And I blow about five hundred dollars on clothes in one fell swoop. And I have about 4 complete new outfits. […]

Welcome to the World

Friday, August 5th, 2005

Sorry about the downtime. My friend, who is doing an excellent job of maintaining my server, had to move, and we had to take a few days to transfer everything over. I’m pleased to report that from my perspective, nothing appears to be harmed at this time.
In the time that the blog was […]
