a secret

this is my secret:
sometimes i like to read harlequin romance novels from the 70's. if you'd like to know more, i have a list of cool things about them. but i won't go into that now.

i can't sleep and i'd like to read one now, but i don't have any to read. it's time to go to the goodwill -- or st. vincents, my new favorite store.

i think st. vincent's had a furniture sale this weekend and i missed it. i should have gone straight there upon my return to buffalo today. i'm in the market for a sofa bed. but i'm picky.

i guess maybe i'll just hang around online for a while. or, i could read some serious literature. god knows there's enough of that lying around the house, most of it starved for attention.

whining section

dear paul,

i like the newness of the strip. the colors are pleasing and bring on the spring. huge super thumbs up on seeing who's online and who's logged in.

however. (hear my mother tone.) my puny old computer only has a static 640X480 screen and it took me AGES to figure out i had to scroll across for the login.

i do admit to my own stupidity. i just wanted to whine. now that i know where it is, there' s no reason to change it.

spying on friends

it's weird, kind of. the more i read on everyone's elmwood blogs, the more disoriented i am in actual physical conversation with the people who write. they'll start telling a story about something, and i'll be like, hey, i know what you're going to say. and them i'm weirded out because i don't know why i know that. but it's the blog, the dangerous land of blogs. we're spies and spied on at the same time

transit boycott

i was just reading paul's post today about rosa parks. he wondered whether a similar thing would work here in buffalo. a couple of weeks ago i heard on the radio that the black community wanted to boycott the transit because of brutality performed by the transit cops. but then i heard a guy who was interviewed say that it was too cold to walk. i think a lot of people must have agreed with him, even though this article says the boycott was successful. but who's going to say their event didn't go so well?

but maybe the boycott didn't work, cause not enough people didn't ride. but i think the weather's just an excuse for laziness.

p.s. there's lots of other articles on the web about it. search google or something

last night i decided

if men get married, they should stay out of bars. go hang out at the married man's club, don't go kissing nice single girls having fun with friends at the pink.

Advice

i want some advice. i don't want to take it. i just want someone, well really several someones with differing opinions, to tell me what they would do. then i would be better able to do what i would do. it doesn't make any sense, never has, and it pisses off my friends when i ask them which dress they like better and make up my own mind in the end.

pierced

i just woke up from a dream that the ring in my recently pierced eyebrown fell out. but it was okay, i just put a different one in. now that i've woken up i've realized that i don't know much about my pierced brow except that i like it.

check this out! i was looking up pierce to make sure i spelled it right and this is the 5th definition:
5 : to penetrate so as to move or touch the emotions of

i wonder if my emotions have been moved or touched? what emotions run through the eye?

Back in Buffalo

It's kind of weird to be back. i only have 2 hours of class on mondays, early in the morning. consequently, i have all afternoon and evening to myself. since things aren't swinging yet, i slept all afternoon. when i woke up, i thought of robin, who sleeps at odd hours and is awake and working at even odder ones. this is how it happens.
now i'm terribly tempted to waste the night away, as well, but i have to get some sort of portfolio together to reapply for next year's TA positions. hmm...
