Free as a Leaf
Ohhhhhhhhhh… to be weightless, unrestrained movement and thought… to never want or need, to live completely released of responsibility. Feel no pain, know no sadness… just, free.
This leaf has been suspeded in the air, a bungee upon the end of the thinnest sliver of silk, that from a giant spider that once lived in the top of a gorgeous oleander. Through the rain, the wind, from temperatures of 33 and up to 95 and even a few neighborhood cats; it has survived.
Carry on great leaf. Carry on.
Tiffany McBowface 2.0 Alpha
Oh man, I love Seth’s cousin, she is so rad. I just bumped into her at Aroma’s, I miss this girl! Barely know her but… yeah, we are going to have to hang out I think. hehe
One girl I don’t care all that much for… haha, is this one.
She was on her fucking phone the entire time we were riding the bus from school to the parking lot at the mall. Not just “on” her phone but having this outrageous conversation, painfully loud for all to hear. I guess she could not feel the eyes burning holes into her, the hands tightening the whispy white scarf around her neck… seriously. Get off the phone. I’m not one to be typically against cellphone usage but in situations like this, close quarters and talking so loud about private’ish issues… .
Rant numero dos. Religious people capitalizing on God, which of course is 90% of religion.
“Great Gifts that will Bless the Spirit”
I am not sure how a yankee candle or those teary eyed bastard children will make your spirit blessed… If it was this easy, surely everyone would be blessed and if everyone is blessed, then no one is blessed. I learned that from the Incredibles (hehe).
I slept through my law class today. I was so freaking tired… probably better that I got the sleep though, I have a test tomorrow in statistics and have to wake up hella early for work so sleep is important.
Kevin might meet me at Aroma’s, where I am now. I am “studying” and listening to one of the best opera CD’s I have ever purchased. Anna Netrebko’s Sempre Libera (with Claudio Abbado & Mahler Chamber Orchestra), go check it out. Highly, HIGHLY recommend her. I also got a few Renee Fleming cd’s, love her!
Opera for eva’ baby!
Time to get back to studying so I am prepared for my test tomorrow! Then sleep, sleep…
Today was Matt’s last day at Starbucks, which is terribly sad to me. He is a freaking awesome guy, even if he is Pat Buchanan’s only fan. ;-) ;-) Have fun in San Diego and law school, however that can be fun.
I leave you with Anna Netrebko’s performance of Verdi’s E Strano! E Strano, a song from his masterpeice, La Traviata, the first real opera I ever saw, and which I saw with Geoff, the first time he put his hand on mine to let me know that we were not there just as friends… Oh, what a magic moment. haha, to be young again… (that was only two years or something ago, holy hell…. haha. I’m aging quickly, better find me a man before I get a wrinkle!
Losing Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I, again, should be sleeping. Damn you Kevin!
What the hell kind of advertisement is this?
Whatever, I’m over it. Secondly…
Why can’t authors be creative with the titles of their books? At Barnes and Nobles tonight, I found three books, on the same bookshelf, three books with the same beginning title, of course by different authors. Case for Hilary, for Israel and for Peace… what the hell? How about this being the case for Google Print? No one is creative these days anyways…
So off to bed. Waking up early for school. Ciao!
Not a Good Omen
This is totally not something you want to see, the only fire hydrant in the area is out of service? That can’t be good.
Right now I am exhausted, and getting ready to head off to work. My eyes are burning from lack of sleep, though I got plenty of sleep last night. I think I need a vacation, need to go to Cayman or Florida. Columbia is far too emotional, Houston as well, France is too wet and cold right now and New York is too blue. I need bright, sunshiney days. Even California is kinda bleak right now.
I burned this really fun CD of music to sing to. It’s a pretty good listen, and sing. I actually am planning a trip to Kinkos tonight to make copies of my concert music and then Aroma’s for study time and a bit of socializing. If anyone wants to join me, consider yourself invited.
I’m mad right now, haha, but smiling. Seth… argh!
I found a really great post of the old days, if I find it again I will link back to it. Good times right?
Speaking of old days… willfulexpose.com is GONE! Where did you go my beautiful blog? One of the best blogs on the net and, forgotten by me for a fwe months, all of a sudden, gone. No reasons on the blogger version (which is just a static image of the past) and nothing on the main page. I’m terribly upset. New York Ex and Willfulexpose were of my first regularly read blogs, Wilfulexpose went on a break this summer which broke up our relationship a bit, oh to turn back time…
Pinging willfulexpose, please respond!
Trying to figure out which of my 34 new cd’s to listen to… How about I stick with Rent, since it makes me so emotional, gives me so many chills… I have to have the heater on in my car when I listen to it. Maybe I’m a loser, or maybe I am super cool like that. ;-) I lahv it! (oh Geoff, haha)
So, before I go, note: Landon is being weird, telling me about guys and dates and whatnot… That’s cool, but you should read my blog.
Oh and Geoff, Ian totally got me onto this movie, Murder by Death which you would wet yourself over. You MUST MUST MUST watch it. Totally reminded me of Clue, super funny. I think you’d get a kick outta it, one of those high kicks you love to do haha.
Time for work, peace out my loves.
Oh, I should Be Sleeping…
First off, did I already blog this pic? I think I did… hmmmm.
I should really be going to sleep right now but… I’m not. Today was interesting. Woke up late, which was fine cause I did’nt have anything to do. Went to Stanroy and got some new music and a tuning blow thing… Obviously a novice to this stuff. Then got a message that I was supposed to work at 9:00am… uh, no, I don’t work until Dec 10th. Turns out that schedules got kinda crazy, I work this week after all, which is actually kinda nice :)
They ended up calling me in to work anyways, got to work with Matt which was fun, as usual. He and Pat Buchanan, oh fun times.
Hung out with Kevin tonight, imagine that haha. Mike just got home and we are all sitting, talking, etc etc. Ian and Chris hung out today, whoop to those two!!! Shout outs, hiyah! haha.
I bought 34 cd’s today, well yeah, oops on that one. Oh well. Four Cardigans CD’s, maybe I will start to like them like so many of my friends!
Oh, of the cd’s, got Daniel Powter, excited about that one. Love the song Bad Day. I have posted about it before.
Kevin hooked up his computer today and now all three of us are being dorks on our computers… its so cute, and yet, kinda sad haha.
Had a peach pina colada with grenadine in it, yummmolicious!
Guess I will head to bed, my posts have become so un-influential to the world… were they ever? bah humbug. By the way, New York Ex is a great blog that I had forgotten about, until today. I tried to catch up, boy that lesbian can write! I want more banana pics!
Ok, off now. Muah!
TNT Jackson
More on them later I hope. Their music is almost as impressive as their website, or maybe more so.
El Paso, I’ll Pass’o…
Kind of ironic, as we are climbing altitude, reaching a cruising level, from my iPod Shuffle comes Bette Midler belting out, From a Distance. It is one of my favorite songs, one of those songs that you like from when you were a kid and all the way into adulthood. Another one of her songs is The Rose, When a Man Loves a Woman and Miss Otis. Those are my favorite Divine Mrs. M songs.
I am over the fact that I had a four hour layover in El Paso (of all places), now I am fretting over the fact that I have another stop before I get to Oakland. We stop in LA before finally heading to Oakland. This has to be the worse flight schedule I have ever witnessed. I got to the airport at like 8:30 and won’t leave the airport until what will be 7:30 for me. Eleven hours to travel from TX to CA. Normally that would be a three to four our flight…
I talked to Landon for about an hour last night. It was really nice. I think we explained things better. Not sure where it leaves us, we’ve now said what we needed to say.
I also 
walked the golf course last night, dodged deer and fell into a sand pit. It was like super late into the night, or early morning, and I was bored. A few hours after leaving the golf course a storm broke out. I could not sleep, the water was pelting the house so hard, the thunder was cracking so loud and the lightening was lighting the sky so brightly. It was like a scene from a movie, the apocalyptic scene of some sci-fi movie. Beautiful sites; I really should have pulled my camera out and taken some pictures. Damn it, why didn’t I think of that? I am always three steps behind myself.
Pics from above…
I finally got an answer on Wordpress.org about why my site was all funky looking with music, apparently my code does not validate, which seems awfully odd to me because it has worked in the past. I think there is something more to this, seeing as the prior is so true. I am going to play around with the codes and maybe make something that will work. Until I am able to fix it, I am very sorry for the craziness on music and video posts.
What really is going to such is that I will have to go back and re-do all of those posts with the new code. Painful! If I had any coding skills, I would have some simple program or cron job do it for me, alas, I only had two semesters of computer science.
Even still, I am a fast learner…
The song Defying Gravity, from Wicked, reminds me of Geoff and I or Landon and me. I feel like together, either of the two of us could do anything. The combos depend on the situation. Don’t really need or want to get into that but I do believe if Geoff and I set our heads to something, we could and would accomplish it with ease, and probably better than our comparable peers. We would be unstoppable. The same goes for Landon and me, but for whatever reason, I feel more strongly about that with Geoff. Perhaps it is his cut throat attitude. Do not cross Geoff and think you will get away with all of your limbs…
With me, the damage is done metaphysically. You will feel the pain, but the source won’t be traceable and it might be delayed, just enough to cause the most damage. I’m an evil person, deep down, somewhere, I swear, I am total evil, solid black, the coal Santa puts in bad kids’ stockings… That’s me, total evil. Haha
Turbulence, lots of it. It does not help me type, that’s for sure. Especially on my Axim, tiny keyboard and top heavy PDA, not a good combo when you stir in hot air. Boy is the sun hot, my window, yeah, totally hot.
Speaking of hot- Only a few hotties on this plane. One I was giving hard core “sit next to me” vibes but then got distracted by his wrist bands… Which were tattooed on? Sexy! I don’t think I would ever do that but meh; it certainly looked good on him. He was wearing; well sadly he is still wearing these, gray jeans, green shirt with white screen printing of a vine and has a T-Mobile PDA/Phone. I like dorks, especially sexy dorks.
I found the other gay guy in El Paso, he is flying to Portland. That is all.
Made a new Brothel ad/invitation for the new Brothel season…
Nelly McKay has been really popular with the iPod Shuffle as of late, no complaints here. Curious as to when/if she will put out a new CD. It has been years and years since her debut and it only seems right that she gives us something new. The original CD was fantastic, is she afraid of a sophomore slump?
Perhaps she and Regina Spektor could do something together. They are both in New York, same age, one blonde one brunette, both liberal and fabulous. I think they could make some serious magic in the studio.
What do you think Jenny, I bet it would go platinum hehe.
Ian sent me a Ben Fold’s song today, that is all.
Landon sent me his picks from New York, all 146mb’s of pictures.
My brother emailed me asking me to ask my dad to check his email.
My brother’s girlfriend Facebooked me a message today, it was super sweet and fun. I shall respond to her. So much for boycotting myspace and facebook I guess. I got a message from Matt and Jason on myspace yesterday. Another Matt, guessing my Starbucks Matt, left me a comment (two actually) on my post with the manual espresso machine. Anyone want to give me the Elektra, if not, a comment on my journal will suffice, I guess…
I ordered a chicken quesadilla for lunch at the airport. It had celery and green beans in it. Oh, uh, yeah… What the hell kind of quesadilla is that? Onion, pepper, cheese, chicken, guacamole, sour cream… Green beans and celery? GROSS. Stupid El Paso.
You know why there isn’t a Starbucks in the Austin airport? It is not a Texas owned or originating company and therefore, cannot be placed inside of the airport. That is about the stupidest… I want Starbucks, I have been craving it since my last cup, which by the way—
Went to a Starbucks just outside of Austin, they had new espresso machines. Matt, you would have approved of these. Freaking amazing. Only 50 of them in the nation. Three months old. I took a picture of them, as best I could, with my camera phone.
I made a comment about them being probably not that expensive about $4000 a piece and the guy smiled and scoffed at me. There is no way they cost more than that. There are two espresso machines and two steamers, yes, the steamers were separate. Sexy as hell. Ask my mom and dad, after leaving the Starbucks, I was falling to pieces. This was an awful Starbucks experience (customer service bad and the drinks came out slowly), so why did they get the beautiful new espresso machines? My Starbucks is fast and super happy fun with fabulous customer service.
Grrrr. Mad.
I am becoming a coffee snob. Oh dear. Next up? Teas.
I hope to go to the Barista Western Finals in Healdsburg in March. My family wants me to enter in the competition, bah. I don’t have the equipment or the skills (yet). You make twelve drinks in fifteen minutes and are judged by the taste, cleanliness, speed and presentation.
I need to get a nice espresso machine so that I can get on it for the competition, maybe the 2007 competition I can be apart of…
Well, I am done rambling, I think I am going to get some shut eye; I have about an hour and thirty before we land in LA and then another hour and thirty to Oakland. Kevin is picking me up again, what a nice guy. Hopefully I can pay him back somehow.
Roger that, over and out and some sort of nonsense.
Lay Overs Suck
Depsite today being a big travel day, Austin’s new airport was almost completely deserted.
I have been in El Paso now, waiting for my plane, for uh, hours and hours. 11-12-1-2-3… four hours? I will be boarding soon I think. But Thanks to Sacha Sacket, I am not all that worried, he is a fucking amazing artist.
My code for music is not compatible with the new wordpress so putting up songs is not going to be so easy, at least not for your, for me, it is easier I guess. Anyways…
I took a picture of a my window on my prior flight. It came out “ok” but imagine what it will look like with my Nikon D200, whenever I get my new camera.
With the new camera you will be able to see the plates of the utility car in the drop of water. Oh hell yeah! 10.2 Nikon CCD megapixels, oh baby baby.
I’m telling you, both CD’s, in their fullness, are freaking amazing. Buy them NOW
I am not sure if I should stay where I am (at the gate) or walk around, brush my teeth… what?! I keep freaking out, I almost missed my last flight (wandering the corridor) and this one, well my cell phone and computer keep switching time zones… I guess I will stick to the gate. yes, that sounds like a good idea.
