A rare hello plus 100 words.
I know it has been a long time since I last posted here, but I didn't think it was that long!
Much has been happening (as I always seem to type) on many different levels, not the least of which has been relational and marital trauma. My marriage is still together and I'm happy about that, and time will see if things progress upwards or downwards ( Read more... ) -
Well, well, well...
Would you look at that! It's exactly one month today since I last posted. Isn't that typical pathetic the way things sometimes get...no rest for the wicked, eh.
And while we are on the cliches, if only the good die young and there is no rest for the wicked, I'm destined to be busy busy busy for a long long time!
I'm still liking my job, although ( Read more... ) -
yes, yes, yes...
...just the same as always, it has been a long time between drinks, indeed it has.
Tonight, on my second-last night off before getting back to work for another 9 or 10 straight 12-hour days, I watched a wonderful movie that I'd never even heard of before. Given to me by a friend of mine, it is called The Man From Earth. After going to imdb.com I ( Read more... ) -
a great book...
I know I have a lot of "readers" on my flist. Has anyone here read the Mitch Albom book For One More Day? I just finished reading it this morning and I honestly think it may have instigated changes in my life.
If you have read it, did you love it as much as I did, and did it affect you greatly? If you haven't read it I honestly believe you ( Read more... ) -
Movie magic from Morgan
There's a story about how the Greek gods were bored so they invented human beings. They were still bored, so they invented love. Then they weren’t bored any longer. So they decided to try love for themselves. And finally, they invented laughter, so that they could stand it.
So say the opening lines to the Movie starring Morgan Freeman, The Feast of ( Read more... ) -
Beautiful food...
Nothing makes a 12-hour night shift more ultimately bearable than cous-cous and chickpea salad.
YUM!
Well, maybe sex for afters would make it more bearable, but that's never going to happen here, so I'll love and enjoy the salads!

THIS IS NOT A MEME
I'm just a little interested (okay, more than just a little):
What do you do to pick yourself up when you get in a funk, the sads, depression, a case of the blues, or whatever else you might refer to it as?
I could do with some suggestions right now...

Writer's Block: Last Twenty Bucks
Well, isn't this one a tough one...
PRACTICAL: toothpaste and toothbrush set
FRIVOLOUS: $20 worth of chocolate!
MY CHOICE: a set of guitar strings
I think if I did this one every day for a year I'd probably think of different things for all three categories.

eco-friendly tip: re-use old newspapers and magazines by cutting out the letters and making a note for somebody special...especially asking for money. -
Writer's Block: Love This Artist
Yowza! Our writer's block prompter is on a bit of an art spin lately, eh...
This is far from easy to answer for me, as I have been so fully indulgent in art in recent years, and therefore exposed to so much, I have a hard time stipulating who would be an outright favourite.
Historically, from when I was a young boy, my favourite artist was an ( Read more... )
