Sail on honeybee

Well another TYCA-West in the bag. I bought a cool ring in PC with a spinner of feet in the middle. Hard to describe, I suppose.

Those blessed structures , plot and rhyme --

Had a great time last night. She came over and looked at my Spiral Jetty pictures. She wants to go out there sometime, but I don't know how possible that is with either of our cars. It would need an off roader like Jeff's Scooby. After the pictures we went down to Hollywood (I actually had no fine) and glanced around. I was kind of in the MOOD for a 40s movie like the Big Sleep or Casablanca or Key Largo or something like that. We spotted Panic Room and readily agreed to get it. I also picked up the Big Sleep for the hell of it.

Panic Room was interestingly paced. The ending was acting like it wanted to tell me something. I'm not sure what.

Fun 'n Games inside

Oh yeah I have this really goof-ass thing I do with girls I like. I give them Pez dispensers. They are hard to find at times. I looked around today up in PC for one but didn't find one. Luckilly I had a Storm Trooper one on hand. It is RAD. RAD MAN. RAD.

Hope she likes it.

keeps a smile around a while he took no fright and jettisoned we'll go tonight to hear him tell "oh well"

Date with Candace tonight. Woop woop woop.

John passed his Social Work examine. Yee haw.

The old man who used to live next door has taken up coming back to the place, thinking he lives there. The group of young brothers and sisters who bought the place this summer are enervated by it. I would be too. Evidently the old man's family didn't tell him that they sold the house. He is in a retirement home now, not far away. Poor guy.

Did I tell you I have a date with Candace tonight? Woop woop woop. We are going to watch a video and play it steathily at the video store since we both might have unspeakable fines at good old Holly wood. If we have such fines we will yell "CHEESE IT! WE'RE COPPED!" She is a great person and I want to get to know her better.

Shame shame! Get your mind out of the gutter. Ok, you can keep it in the gutter with mine.

Day in the park

Hassles at the conference due to some bad planning. SERENITY NOW! Nah it ain't that bad. I'm just annoyed this morning.

Alternative payment plans

Ok so it is off to Park City for a regional English teacher conference. Yes it is as exciting as it sounds. I want to be bad and blow the whole thing off. Why didn't I cut classes (we would call it "sluffing" in Utah) in school?

In case of errors or questions about non-electronic transactions

Hmm. I'm intrigued by Candace. She is the "blind date" I was talking about a while back. Intrigued. Intrigued. Enough of this pussy footing, I think. We need a real one-on-one thing. Tonight was our second outing ( I don't use the "date" word) but we've exchanged a lot of e-mails. Anyway.

I'll believe what I want to believe

Christ I am a fuck up when it comes to money. No details. Mind your own business.

Everybody's junkheap

Cars are the bane of my existence. What a love/hate relationship I have with them. I remember driving and driving and driving feeling the hypnotic ting of the road beneath me. Ah. Dam I wish that old page was up--what the hell, I think I will put it HERE. (Sorry for the crappy midi, but it is a part of the joke and when the hell have I ever embeded any midi on you since 1994?)

What spurs this outburst, you ask? Well this afternoon I was dutifully getting good old Christine her annual (when I am not a scofflaw) checkup and AOKing from the fine highschool deprived folks at Jifeefo Lube who are given the right to state whether a car is safe or not by the pretty, great state of Utah (ok that was mean about the guys there, but I am in a piss-ass mood right now) and Christine decided that she was going to punish me yet again for thinking of selling her by going into a coolant coronary embolism--in other words her water pump went tits up and leaked coolant right there in front of the Jiffo Minuto Lubo. Now I should be happy she didn't blow her gasket while being tested--that would have been mondo ugly to watch them let her go into full on aluminum block meltdown on the emissions testing platform. Likewise I should be happy that she had enough coolant in her to get me up the hill to home where she now dutifully sits in her stall waiting for me to profer some tender loving car care.

I found myself calling a couple of friends asking about mechanics, and then I slammed on the brakes. "What a pussy," I said aloud having been duly influenced by shop talk. Pussy is right. When the hell have I ever thought of going to a mechanic. Granted it takes me forever sometimes to repair something a trained person could do in a 10th of the time, but HELL IF I AM GOING TO PAY SOMEONE TO DO SOMETHING TO MY CAR. That was my Dad coming out and that is why it is in all caps.

So the upshot is that sometime after the conference this weekend I will be hip deep in grease and swearing like a sailor while I replace Christine's water-pumping metalic heart.
