so I was gonna say

that if you don't know me, this upcoming morsel would tickle your fancy. Then I realized that if you are reading this, not only do you know me, but you know me fairly well. So essentially there is no point in notifying you that today, November 28, a mere 3 months after moving in, I ACTUALLY moved in. That's right, everything is unpacked and ordered and I even have some decorations. An incredible development considereing the squalor and chaos I've been living in. For some reason, and y'all should know this knowing me as you do, it doesn't really bother me one way or the other. So now, after 3 months, I get around to doing what should have happened Day 1. Amazing what some motivation and the first free time in ages will do for a DTM.

so the hard drive is fucked

but luckily I used this blog not to back up my pictures or music or anything of value -- but I've got a fuckload of fucking spanish fuckquotes.

I've got time for nothing

except la poesía (poesía eres tu!)

bueno Quevedo

su cuerpo dejará, no su cuidado;
serán ceniza, mas tendrá sentido;
polvo serán, mas polvo enamorado.

Ayer se fue; mañana no ha llegado;
hoy se está yendo sin parar un punto;
soy un fue, y un será, y un es cansado.

yo

my computer looks to be all kinds of fucked up -- just like my life


I just can't get no satisfaction.

But I guess it all boils down to how you look at it, so let's hope ATN works a miracle and sets me out on the first step back towards good. And let's hope Gus continues to hold up after his hiccup over thanksgiving. Hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for today...(at least in part because it's Phipps' birthday ... and to keep the lame rhyme going, Hooray!)

I have decided to start introducing myself as Daniel

that is all.

Halloween

was good.

I don't believe in cameras, so it may take awhile for me to assemble photodocumentation of the evening, but I'm sure it will be worth the wait. Or maybe not. Because I had an epiphany the other day. I am not in very many pictures. There are people that are in lots of pictures. I am not one of those people. I don't know why, or if it's good, bad or neutral, but it's an interesting truth nonetheless.

oh, and the all hallow's made me sick i think:

me: I'm getting sick. I can feel it in my throat.
phipps: Good news. Maybe it's the bird flu.
me: hopefully.
