new mix cd

keith, i dig the cd. a good mix of familiar artists/unfamiliar tracks (for me at least). the cable guys were here installing my free month while it was playing and they didn't take too much notice till the end. "The Miracle of Childbirth" by King Missile III. all ears perked up at "fuck me daddy" or somewhere in there. i bonded with them as we laughed. good song. whole thing is good and is perfect for the alaska trip!

Present for Robin

Robin--I was very sorry to hear about your bike. I saw some in the Salvation Army Thriftshop near the Boulevard Mall (a way up near campus), if you're looking to replace.

I hope the rest of your days gets better. Pink tonight to celebrate?

AK: definitely going

i gotta get out of here, get out of anyplace i ever knew. so i'm gonna rent a car and drive to alaska and visit julie.

itinerary:
june 25-27 liberty, pa (home to see mom & dad and the town fire company carnival)

june 28: leave for juneau (or is it juno? i should learn to spell it before i go)

about a week later: show up on julie's doorstep (wherever she is)

about a week and a half after that: start the drive back though the northern portion of america and see cowboy places i dream about.

yea! this makes me feel so good. i can't believe i was thinking of not going. i would have regretted it. i don't care how much it costs. that's why i have good credit.

metajournal

i've been shy of posting lately. i don't know why. well, i think it's to do with all the new people on the site. i think it's great that you're all out there, and i look forward to getting to know you. but it's a little daunting.

when i first joined, i was a more of a voyeur and sometimes i wouldn't even sign in--i just read about other people. then i became somewhat more active as the spring went on and i met more and more e-strippers.

now i'm kind of in blah land. i'll sign on and mean to write, then get up to do something else and never come back. i'm a loser blogster at this moment in time.

today's random group

i really enjoyed the pink last night. it was good to see all of you out. matthew, where were you? i still have your shirt.

i talked about the site today to some women at the AAUW booksale. they wanted to know how i heard about it and i said a member of my online community had mentioned it and gave them the site. thanks, jill for telling us about it.

aauw used to have a booksale back in reading, pa, too. it was nice and fuzzy to see it here. i loaded up on paperbacks of all kinds and sizes. i also got some cassette tapes, including vanilla ice and the teenage mutant ninja turtles soundtrack. what fun i'll have.

i also stopped at the thrift store on the way home. i'm still perusing couches, but i didn't find any i liked. i did buy another suitcase, though. this is the second one in about 2 months. but i already have 3 other ones. oh my... i just realized that 4 of my 5 suitcases have come into my possession in the past year. maybe i do have a problem. but at least the last 3 have been free or extremely cheap.

this is a sign that i really do need to travel. go to alaska, dammit!

getting it on

were terry and i getting it on?
i thought it was dancing
and paul was a victim of dance

i didn't take any wooden nickels on the way home. but then, none were offered. home is a short walk and i don't mind making it on my own. but wouldn't it be nice to be accompanied back to my hovel, my hole, my new comforter. we two could be comforted by its feathered warmth.

about me at the start of june 2004

listening to tom waits, lou reed, leonard cohen. it's like wrapping up in my comforter.

bought new sheets for no reason other than i like them. what a good way to spend $60.

reading virgin suicides after watching it again last week. i think the movie is better. maybe. still haven't finished the book.

went home for memorial day, as always. i can't decide if my family is falling apart or getting closer. i really can't stand my sister these days and don't know if or how that will ever change. i just want her to go away and i feel really wrong saying that. on the other hand, my sister in law and i are getting on famously.

i get more worried about steve and his case with each passing day, but i feel pretty powerless.

teaching is okay. today was "attack of the whiners." it happens at least once every semester, kids who want an A without earning it. they probably think i'm a bitch, but i'm not. i just believe that doing the bare minimum of work does not qualify you to receive an A.

i'm getting paranoid that roy hates me, or at least thinks i can't teach. honestly, there's no reason for me to think this -- it's all in my head. well, that's how i try to reassure myself.

am finally in buffalo for the weekend with no visitors and nothing to do. maybe i'll go see shrek or some other movie.

will go to the pink tonight. it's been weeks since i've been there.
