>Waiiiiiiiiting… a mere one way or another will prove to be complete realization, or utter failure of ‘said plan’. (*melodrama-meter*) So you know those things that you totally know what you want, and it would be perfectly possible… but it’s probably best left alone? That’s me… same tiff – one… way… or… another… but it’s not up to me. I don’t get to choose. I’m powerless, uniformed, until a kind soul enlightens me. I’ve also had complications rise of a situation in the past – worked through said complications, and it turned out very nice. Eventually it ended up going…

>Whew, mucho ponderation. I’m awake early on a Saturday – how’d that happen? =] Got home a little while ago, drove around for a bit. I ended up being back near home, called a few people – one dissapeared, haven’t heard from Carissa in a long time. At least since Tom’s funeral… her phone was disconnected, and her dad’s house no longer had their name on the mailbox. I tried to see if they were at least in the same town/area via 411 – but none in the local area, or even MA in general with said name. She had…

>Overheard:: major drama – “…my 3rd floor neighbor came over and said ‘one of the other girls in your house is always over my house with my husband. I’m not sure which one actually lives there cause they’re both there an equal ammount of time, but they’re both over there all the time’” – not mine, thank bejizzles. I also had an idea for a evolved mission statement, a theme… if you will. Synthetic-X as a planet, the horizon of which is the current page. Zooming out you would see an entire planet… and zoom out I shall — now,…

>Grrrrrrrrr, so my car has a big ol scrape on the front bumper. It looks like I tried to turn to close to something white — but I didn’t. It wasn’t like that when I came in, just went out to the parking lot here at work and there it was. I called to see if they could review the tape — not until tomorrow. .:sigh:. I can’t keep the damn thing clean, or un-scathed, it seems. It’s inevitable with any car, you get the 1 ding that starts it all. I had a dent on my old car from…

>It pays to jump on tech opportunity – As I was enjoying my MSN account today, going through the calendar and such; I realized that all the cool stuff is what they charge for. I’ve been receiving it free since about 3 years ago when they had a 6 month free initiative. You’d give your credit card info, it wouldn’t be charged for 6 months… then at the end of that time they’d charge you for the remaining 6 months and you’d have a year’s worth of internet access. Having no money at the time, I signed up. Wallet was…

>Small people in high places is funny.

>Small People in High Places are Funny S.P.I.H.P I’m not short, which makes it all the more unusual when small people are at an elevated position. Their eyes are level, if not slightly higher then mine, usually. I chuckle because they’re so much higher then normal. I wonder if they’re scared, because small people could fall and get hurt from those higher hights. If you’re a small person, be careful. If you’re a tall person who sees a small person in a tall place — keep alert, those little suckers could tumble at any moment. ~ Thank You

>A Theory of Shape – physical and emotional, and how they go together

>So I’ve been thinking up a theory here – just figured I’d throw it out there: Shape. Physical and emotional (if you want to get all metaphorical). You know how there are some people you just fit with? Be it laying down and cuddled – tangled in each other, or being able to sit together on the couch all snuggled up and watching a movie… or even something on a more intimate level. There are arms and ribs and bones and whatnot that need to fit into/around the other person to pull off a sucessful cuddle position. The ultimate test…

>So I try and get everything together last night, get my friend away from the usual element… but noooo she’s already got plans — but I’m not bitter! …or at least I wouldn’t be if anyone else had shown up 🙁 I just kinda hung out, played some video games… it’s been a busy week so I took the evening off – just staying home. Bryan stopped by later on, we played Enter the Matrix, got through a lot of it – I’m about the same place in the game with both characters. I got stuck with Ghost, but just…

>Nothing for the past few days, there’s a few links – but those can wait for now. I’m just in one of those thinking while typing moods. I have one friend who’s having issues at home, can’t get ahold of her, and who in her last entry melodramatically noted she was contemplating ways to kill herself. She said her father made her show it to him when she printed it — it was probably partially for his benefit, but you can’t go writing shit like that. It makes people worried, and there’s others that love you as you are… your…

>After spending some time with Cathy I’m convinced a little both ways. We spent most of the time we were hanging out at Newburry Comics just paroozing. Music, or posters, or little nicknacks would remind us of a story, and we’d banter back and forth on that subject. It was easy to talk… and we’d both trail off, losing our tain… to be reminded by the other person of what we were saying. There was so much that I wanted to say at a time, I’d often get on another subject before getting through the first — and we’d both…

>So yeah — this one’s in draft, probably for quite some time. This weekend — whew. It blew my mind. I learned so much about Danielle — realized I we had a lot in common. She had a similar past (the whole ‘goth stage’ thing), her view on things like ‘energy’ within the universe. She went off on it once when Caitlin was around, kind of took it back with a ‘but that’s stupid’. A very kind person, vulnerable, but with determination to do what needs to be done. I’ve never been complimented in such a way as to make…

>So this weekend was so… full of epiphany. Kind of. I wouldn’t say I made a new friend, per se… but I think I made one less enemy. I really enjoy singing — was jamming out with a band, just making up the song as I went, as they made up the music as we went along. It was so much fun! I’ve always tried to make my own music. Various attempts at instruments have fallen flat, though mixing has had decent results, it’s only been after much deliberation and re-inventing. I partied it up with some great people, nothing…

How much have you given to this world, and how much has been taken from you? What would you have your children do differently, and how might that change their view? If you had a choice between love and money, between happiness and fame, would you rather be complacent, or have everyone know your name? What do you seek, this minute, right now? Are you starting a home, are you just up…

I’m sure he was thinking the same thing when he waltzed in here to get better just as I’m coming down with it — just to mess with my head! No… not really, it’s just due to our sick policy. It’s hours… but it used to be occurances (didn’t work, of course) where you could be out for 3 days in a row — and it was 1 occurance of sick…

Ok — maybe not that extreme, but there was a dead body, some blood… and unusual circumstance (though I don’t think it was murder, per se) surrounding the cafeteria here @ work. It’s run by an outside company, so I don’t have any inside info — but they had the bathroom roped off and there was a stain of sorts on the tile/marble/carpet. They had most of it covered up, no…

>I went to go play pool this evening with my friend Caitlin and her partner in crime – Danielle. We headed to one of my favorite spots: Boston Billiards. They have a really nice place, full-sized tables, good people, decent drinks if a little high-priced, and some of the best waitresses around. =] There was a fire truck there – firemen walking on the roof, milling about. Danielle didn’t have a valid ID so we couldn’t get in, but the bouncer said there was a sort of electrical fire… then people started getting sick. It could have been gas… or…
