Another Andy Rooney post

Happy Birthday to [livejournal.com profile] gamera_spinning!

Best News Evah (at least for today): "After a nice break from the action, sellout is bringing the party back to the jazzhaus this Friday and Saturday, October 22 & 23. As many of you know, Sunnye has moved to Florida. However, she is coming back to celebrate her birthday with sellout and she's bringing her sax with her."

'Scuse me while I do a little dance here at my desk. Yow! I'm definitely going to the Friday night show. Saturday I'll be at a costume party unless I decide to be a totally worthless shithead of a friend and skip out of the party early. Heh...heh? Um, guys? Oh dear. I'm still uncertain of costume for the party. I need to see if I can squeeze into my Catholic Schoolgirl outfit again. I didn't have time to pull together the Aeryn Sun one, dammit.

This test told me:
Your score as a human being is 98.65.
You are a pleasure to be with and a pleasure to be. Your friends do not envy so much as admire you, and you lead your life with grace, honor, and dignity. This site is humbled to have you take a test on it. Which brings one to wonder, what are you doing goofing off on the Internet?

Now some bad news: I'm having to postpone my move date. [livejournal.com profile] roya_spirit and I agree that her place isn't near to being ready for me to move in. I'm hoping for next weekend, but I don't know how many people will be available, it being a weekend for parties and such. Please let me know if you'd be available next weekend to help me move. Thanks and apologies.

Last week I crossed a mile marker in my life. I made a decision that I thought I would never, ever, make. It was a big one. Those of you who know me well will understand exactly how momentous this was and it should give some indication of the drastic new direction my life is going. Last Friday. I ordered. A cell phone. Whoa! Yes, you read that correctly. Basically, I got an offer I couldn't refuse from Working Assets and (most importantly) I get to keep my current phone number. So. I have 30 days with a temporary number to decide if I like the service, and then my old (current) phone number will be transferred to the new phone. If you want to know my temporary number, please email me instead of commenting. I'll send out the number as soon as I have it.

I was packing up my sewing room last night (six boxes of crap and counting) when I stumbled across a notebook of quotes, dreams (two of them!), and other miscellaneous stuff from several years ago. Included in the notebook were several examples of my magnetic poetry creations. Say what you like about the concept, it's the only way I've ever written what I consider to be decent (if a little trite) poetry. I'm not sure what that says about my mental processes/personality, but there you have it. I thought it was particularly approprite considering yesterday's poetry meme that I submit to you some of my very own poetry. No snickering, please.

EDIT: Due to some confusion of a few people, I should note these are all separate little tiny bits of doggerel. It's not one big epic poem.

I always leave dreams behind me
like some delicate chain under my fingers
as though their whispers may produce
a bare and bitter garden

Beneath a drunk moon we dressed
You said shine on a moment love
shadows can rob our life

I will sweat or run for him
but he wants me to sleep easy
A still bed not a frantic road
so I lie here legs & breasts heaving
wanting skin and swimming in blood

After I cry the sea is still
and you swim through the flood
soothing me like a warm sun
your ship never crushed
in my bitter frantic storms

The wind cools only my skin
the lust in my breast is hot
I boil in urges
legs weak
as I lie beneath you
under a spring sun

I love to lie
dazzle
wax elaborate
about a thousand things
like roses
whispers
lips and
tongues
I sacrifice language to desire

lazy gods of fluff and flowers
trip easy
a cat goddess is doing it for you

Ask me after its over
and I will tell you
if it was lust or love
