positively 21st st

I forgot that having alcohol near bed time always makes me wake up early. Even a little and GOOD MORNING! I'M ALL PERKY AT 0600!

For the 20th anniversary of the Challenger explosion I think maybe I'll go get a balsa wood glider and attach a firecracker to it, and then throw it and yell OBVIOUSLY A MAJOR MALFUNCTION! just as it goes off.

Last night's dinner came out really well. A black japonica/brown rice blend, steamed broccoli with ginger and black pepper, and hot wing "drummettes". Tonight I think is soup night. I'll go to Growers Ranch and see what kind of veg-eatables they have that look most soupworthy.

The Rich Girls Are Weeping has an mp3 in advance of Neko Case's new CD!

apology

My apologies to Laura and Erin for the earlier lashing out. It wasn't helpful for you or anyone else. If it was hurtful I apologize doubly.

Eventually I'll learn when to use the inside voice. I'm only 41.

spin the wheel of neuroelectric dysfunction!

As usual, I could have predicted most of this last week's fun on NFB-related changes and side effects, especially what was euphemistically described as a "stiffening of resolve" and the 12 straight hours of fight-or-flight mode. I sure as hell hope this thing has something like the promised results because it's about as much fun as frying bacon in the nude. Today's poll is on the subject: what the fuck is this going to do to me next, and what'll happen THEN? Enjoy!
