September 7, 2008 - Sunday
Sunday mornings:
Coffee steaming out of my chipped cup
Rain dripping off the trees
Flannel sheets
Eggs at 11 am
Ben Harper, Dave Matthews, The Cure
Newspaper--the paper and ink kind
Sweet melancholy like the salty taste of tears
You can still see someone approach when your eyes are closed. It's just their shadow.

I got my Google degree in plastic surgery...
September 4, 2008 - Thursday
Aren't you interested in maybe getting liposuction or a nose job? Perhaps I could offer you a facelift? I mean, I don't have a ton of experience yet, but this is how you learn, right?
I experimented a little on my cat. Unfortunately he died, but it's not like humans and cats are the same! It's probably way easier to work on a more complex and large creature. And besides, I spent a weekend really studying up on everything I could find on the Internet. I have to be a genius by now. At the very least I am a skilled novice. You should let me give it a shot!
****
There is not a lot I really like about Sarah Palin. I have to admit I'm not trying very hard, but I don't think I should have to. No one who has such little experience should be in line to be our president! It shouldn't even be an option.
You know those job descriptions we look at but know we aren't qualified for? Those six-figure income occupations we might get when we're ten years older and have another college degree? Or maybe just belonging to a secret society is enough these days.

My neighborhood sold its soul to the devil
September 3, 2008 - Wednesday
Last night I went outside and all I could hear was helicopters and low-flying planes. The sirens kept me up; I had to shut my windows on a lovely summer/fall evening. This morning I had to switch sidewalks three times to avoid road blocks, and I counted 19 cop cars, vans and swat vehicles in a three block radius.
A round of applause for the RNC--they sure know how to turn every place they invade into a war zone in a matter of days, if not hours.
