in the fashion of (e:maidencateyes), this is me. it's a picture from february -- today i most likely won't be wearing a turtleneck! if you see me, say howdy.

(e:soyeon) and i are heading down maybe around 3:30 although (e:ajay) says she goes on around 6pm, so maybe later as i don't like to hang out in crowds very much.

hopefully i'll see some of you there....

man alive!

Robin, you have the worst luck ever. I'm glad you're okay, but it still sucks.

Soyeon and Paul, congratulations on not smoking! keep it up. if you want to see any pictures of diseased lungs and mouths, babies dying of second hand smoke, or a middle aged man with an oxygen mask, i've still got some canadian duty free cigarettes with all their propoganda still intact.

correction

The Grand Jury Investigation of Steve Kurtz is not over. They've issued the mail/wire fraud indictment, but continue to think they'll be able to drum some bioterror threat if they keep trying. So, they're still subpoenaing people/companies to speak of their knowledge of Steve's activities and beliefs.

Holly's right when she calls them the Thought Police. If you think hard enough, they just might show up on your door next.

long haired boys

[inlink]azurexeruza,6[/inlink]

if i had the chance to tick a "long hair" box on a list of turn-offs, i probably would. but the contradiction azure noted holds true -- i know many long-haired male specimens and i totally dig their hair.

i think what scares me about unknown long hair on boys is the high chance of hair that is stringy/knotty/greasy and just generally unkempt. long hair that's a result of laziness -- that's the turn off.

indictment

robin, thanks for posting the info about steve kurtz' indictment. here's the press release from the cae defense fund website:

a link to the indictment is also posted on the main page, if you'd like some entertaining reading.

while it seems that it's silly and over-reactive to charge him with anything, i'm glad that it wasn't bioterrorism. the charges, mail fraud and wire fraud, can be serious, but the prosecution will have to prove that steve had a serious and criminal intent, a "scheme which in its nature is directed to defrauding a class of persons, or the general public, with a substantial pattern of conduct."

i'm confident that they won't be able to prove this...but the government is scary and who knows what they'll dredge up next, or how words or intent will get twisted. but at least he's out of the grand jury phase now. i do have more faith in standard trials/juries because at least he'll be able to hear what witnesses say and defend himself if need be.

this is all crazy crazy shit, even if it's a minor bit better today. thinking about big brother brings me down.

waiting, sad & depressed

i hate waiting for a email to arrive. all i do is hang around my computer and click "inbox" every half hour or so. it drives me into depression. especially when i end up waiting for 5 days or more, as i have been now.

eventually i'll stop checking and months will go by and i'll send another note and all will be well again. but i don't want those months to go by. i'm not ready for it.

so i watched about a boy tonight (i love anything and everything nick hornby lays a hand to) and was reminded that U2 used to be a pretty good band. the trio of joshua tree, rattle & hum, and achtung baby cannot be beat. so i slipped in achtung baby hoping to rock out. but it's only made me even more sad and depressed.

great night/morning

wow...

i'm not sure i have ever partied till 7 a.m. before. definitely 6:30, but i think this is the record for me. (obviously i've been a good girl.)

thanks to epeeps etc at the pink--i loved it there. also many props to keith for hosting the eventual naked dance party. i now smell like man sweat. and my own, too. still, there's this lingering otherness.

i really had a fabulous night. i should get some sleep, but i also need to clean up the apt. as julie may possibly be crashing here. i should clean in any case, really.

i'll miss the prom, which i'm very sad about. hope you all have as great a time as i did in the last 24hrs!
