Being Humbled

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005

(And yes, I’m still here … I’ll post when I have something silly to say, I suppose … I’m just not here a lot)
So driving to UCSC today I checked, as I always do, the billboard that appears close to Santa Cruz. Today it was the big whale again, telling us that some company [...]

No More

Sunday, November 20th, 2005

It is no longer my birthday. No one has to be nice to me any longer. Now isn’t that a relief?
Yes. Yes, I knew you would like this information.

Today is Have a Bad Day Day.
Today I also turn 49.

Well, But This Is Important

Thursday, November 17th, 2005

Semicolon You scored 23% Sociability and 76% Sophistication! Congratulations! You are the semicolon! You are the highest expression of punctuation; no one has more of a right to be proud. In the hands of a master, you will purr, sneering at commas, dismissing periods as beneath your [...]

Time to Let Go?

Don’t Call Me Today!

Tuesday, November 8th, 2005

… or, if you do, be sure and talk to the machine so when I hear a real voice I’ll pick up (unless I’m teaching). I am not answering the phone today; the taped phone calls telling me to vote (and how to vote) are driving me absolutely nuts.
You have now been forewarned!

Yeah, I’m Still Here

Tuesday, November 8th, 2005

I’ve been doing work on my oboe site and haven’t posted much here. Ah well. But for a short moment of thoughts:

For those who don’t read that oboe site, know that the recital went pretty well!
Why does my left eye hurt every time I blink?
Is it normal, with this acid reflux thing, to now not [...]
