That is a fine looking animal.  Nice gloss on his coat.  Is there a fly problem, or is the hood SOP for convalescing equines?

Hang out and shoot the shit with Steve Gorman and Chris Robinson.  And clap and holler like a maniac for Levon Helm.

OK, that was yesterday.  Today I'm just riding out the afternoon in my cube.

I've seen BC about 4 times and they kicked ass every time.

...walk around artscape and see this great artcar:


When I do a search online to find a picture of it, who's the first result on google? That crazy photojournalist right above me. "The Brass Van" is really a great piece of work though. The owner first covered it in $15k worth of coins, then on top of that he riveted the amazing assortment of brass figures you can see in the picture.

Dude, that car was parked in my front yard

I went outside the next morning 'bout 9:30 and there were about 10 people milling around it.

Man, somebody wanted me to go to Artscape yesterday but I already had plans. I should go today but I don't really want to drive up to Baltimore alone.

Today I'm gonna try to find a real grown-up table for my house, so I can then measure it and determine where to place electrical fixtures to illuminate said table and whatever fancy meals shall be placed thereupon.

Also I'm going to see a lot of junk at the swap meet and possibly sunburn my feet again.

Yeah, I live in Mt. Vernon actually, right by Grand Central if you know the area. It's a hell of a lot better than 22nd st where I used to live. That area does have it's bohemian charms, but I got a little tired of waking up junkies passed out in my parking lot in order to move my car.

oh man, a party thrown by linguists for linguists is a thing to see.

Wow.

Today, I catch up on hundreds of pages of reading, and start writing two short papers.

...play in my first pick-up lacrosse game of the summer.  Don't care whether its a "not-even-tertiary" event or not.

OH, I deleted the mean sentence where I made my meaning clear.

They were a bunch of awkward dorks who could not dance or have normal conversations.

the sociolinguists all sat in one corner drinking and rolling their eyes at the dance floor.
the phonetics/syntax/etc type people danced arhythmically.

"these girls are all begging for someone to come along who will say "hey, have you heard about heterosexual sex? I know how to do that. I am willing to do that with you.""
-my roommate.

Once I started thinking about that part I just got kind of sad and left.

I'm not sure about this. I've never once seen you say "hon" or "down the ocean."

Aaaand now I have Blue Skies Over Dundalk stuck in my head.

Ah, that's more like it.  At least they tried to dance, you probably have no idea the effort that took.

Yeah, the era of having to try really hard to dance is past, for me. Now I just revel in the awesomeness of "why is that guy dancing? No one else is dancing..."

At least, you know, I can revel in that for a few minutes, and then stop out of shame.
