Marvin 8-9-17
I saw you
holding that album
Marvin Gaye
it was your masterpiece
though it was his
you were his masterpiece
though I was yours
You are in my tone as I sing
Whitney Houston makes me think of you
and I get emotional, baby
I was hoping you would understand
I was hoping he would understand
but Marvin always has a different idea
It may be Marvin in ( Read more... ) -
Feeling old? Blame it on the marketing department.
I can't sleep again, but at least it's before midnight (barely...I'm sure by the time I press 'post' the new day will have dawned). And in watching the things that my TiVo records, I see a commercial (oddly, I wasn't fast forwarding, I sometimes consider pop culture part of my job) for Johnson & Johnson, and there's lots of images, a mom, and a ( Read more... ) -
March 29, 2007 - here's to Sunday
Feeling good, like Nina S. said...probably from all the sleep this weekend. So here's an old one with a bit of optimism that felt right for a Sunday night. It's such a small burst of thrill finding poems on envelopes, stuck inside of books, makeshift placeholders.

vajazzling - the new national pastime?
i just really wanted to use the word vajazzling in a journal post subject line. mainly because it's fun to say - rolling off the tongue (no pun intended) like the word flabbergasted, or superfluous. but after consulting the oracle (yes, google, with a sidekick of urban dictionary just to get my facts straight) - it seems that vajazzling has been in ( Read more... ) -
Lack of Internet makes Elise a dull, dull girl
I moved back to Santa Fe on Friday of last week. Since I am traveling across the country this week, I postponed any Internet or cable connecting until Saturday morning, 2/4. Let's ignore how antsy a lack of Internet connection makes Elise, with only an iPhone and paltry, low signal 3G connection to tide me over, and rather focus on the fact that ( Read more... ) -
eating small roasted chickens and other ways to celebrate jesus' birthday
i'm still not sold on the fact that december 25 is jesus' birthday. but since everything is generally closed on christmas day, and i wasn't in the mood to eat chinese food or head out to the movies, there's nothing much else to do on december 25 but celebrate his birthday in typical american style: by eating large quantities of food and ( Read more... ) -
they couldn't make uglier carpet if they tried
i'd like to think that given this extra time sitting in an airport, i would take the time to ponder the important issues of the day, come to a grand epiphany about the state of the world, discover a solution using my vast powers of project management and general bullshit, and contribute something greater to the day other than being another ( Read more... ) -
i never pack ahead of time
in just 7.5 short hours, i will be heading to the airport to fly to cleveland, ohio. of course, i'm procrastinating. i don't know if it's the cold outside or the snow storms that have plagued new mexico the last few days, but i wish those damned scientists would get off their asses and invent me a transporter so i can just push a button and all my ( Read more... ) -
Saturday's alright for spaghetti. And fighting.
It's been a lazy yet productive Saturday. For dinner, I am cooking a souped up version of spaghetti with meat sauce. This wouldn't be too exciting, save for the artichokes and mustard in my spaghetti sauce. And now, back to the tv show numb3rs. how's that for an exciting life? I need to move.
