(144) Placeholder Marker
1. To do everything that I want to accomplish in a day, I figure that I would need 72 hours. I always feel like I'm having to jump from one thing to another, but I always have to skip something in between - usually household maintenance, creative endeavors, and sleep. The latter in particular.

According to Tony, it's Morris Day Saturday. Build yourself an ice cream castle. Make prank calls to 777-9311. Do the bird. Anything goes! It's about (The) Time!

¿Diabetes? ¡Bean Cup!
1. This morning I dreamt up another music video. This time I made a song that seemed to borrow a lot from The English Beat's "Stand Down Margaret", except that the lyrics were a nursery rhyme about a hermit crab and it was poking fun at Ron Paul's isolationist/xenophobic policies. The video itself was seemingly shot on a muddier version of St. ( Read more... ) -

(143) Marooned in Limboland
The following is not whining; I'm merely stating my condition. Tonight I'm restless again, disheartened that I can't really afford to get out this week, and disenchanted with how utterly lonely I've felt lately from A) enduring unwillingly self-imposed sequestration (mostly from the usual lack of monetary funds) and B) being so socially awkward ( Read more... )
