Pedantic Pedestrian Pontification for People


Hey all,

As per the usual I apologize for the latency since my last entry, but (and here I'm always reminded of that scene in V for Vendetta when that woman, reduced to nothing but her sense of pride, wrote on toilet paper in her holding cell.......however in my defense she was a lesbian, I've heard they're a communicative people) life has been somewhat fractured as of late, sitting smack dab for whatever reason in the "never enough time," category. Despite this being true, it also smacks of 45 year old mother mantra and, my affinity for track lighting and propensity to TiVo this aside.....
..I Still feel like anything that puts me into that category is probably for the worst and as a result here I am blogging again, Don't call it a comeback.

As I'm sure like it has been with you, as it has a tendency to do so, time has been moving forward at exactly the same pace at which it ought to move. Which, might seem unremarkable to you, but then again your the person putting Sidney Poitier's autobiography in the top ten best sellers, so what do you know? Sorry, I shouldn't have said that, he was good in The Jackal and I respect that....but to me, especially within the context of one of those pending "life watershed moments," (births, weddings, funerals, when you learn that Carlton from Fresh Prince IS actually much more black than he portrayed on the show*) it would seem to either slow down or speed up, neither of which is the case.

Instead, time has been moving as a function of normality and I suppose because it's a product of how I'm spinning this in the upstairs lab, I guess I'm dealing with it fairly normally. That is to say unless you think that because everyone else handles it with stress and apprehension than I would be the one, by definition, outside of the norm. Perhaps making me, not normal, and I think you would be correct. Congratulations you, I really mean that, you worked hard. [Ed. Note-I've yet to receive YOUR congratulation card on my graduation; although I'm sure it's in the mail. (Just so you know, Sidney Poitier now has $12.99 of your money Andrew Simmons, dear friend and role model $0.00, just a thought)].

Other than that, and the pending next step apps process, every things been pretty cool with me, I guess that frees me up to speak, anecdotally and with great embellishment of course (as I know you have come to expect certain standards and who am I to disappoint, outside of the bedroom that is--ZINGINLY!!!) about observations made today while pedestrianizing around.

1.) Truly, the average car driver wants appear just flippant enough as to seem that they don't see you. We get it, you don't care if we live or die you just want to get to Subway. I understand, I'm sorry I was in the street. Hope you enjoy your 6 inch.

2.) You miss a lot walking around with headphones. On the upside RATT's killer licks almost make up for it.

3.) Summertime is in full bloom. Which, sickeningly, as soon as I typed that made me think of the pending Pirates movie.

Well, only someone as truly lethargic as me could ever use business as an excuse to not exercise something as minuscule as a blog (particularly this tiny blog) but I did and I'll deal with your judgements. I can handle them. I'm a recent gun owner.

Don't go away mad,
A.J.S.
