TGIF

On June 20, 2003, in love, lust, longing, techology, by keifel

not that it makes a difference, it’s a holiday here and i’m going into work. but i feel great anyway. the dreams, the dreams. my god.

that glow on the horizon in the northwest portion of trinidad is me smiling. i feel that good, by the time vic gets here in 28 days we may both need to have some kind of protective shielding.

i’m calling the embassy today, i think my general demeanour and good feeling will help me get through the beuracracy. need to get some kind of news.

speaking of which:

apple teases us with the new G5s

some recently issued patent gems

the new times 55 fiction winners (a complete story in 55 words)

pubic hair-dos (part 1 of 3 by near experts em & lo from nerve)

it’s about that time for me to get going. i’ll be back later.

hormone overdrive

On June 19, 2003, in love, lust, longing, by keifel

my hormones are in overdrive, not in a bad way.

my skin is tingly, it’s like i can feel every touch with every fibre of my person. everything seems more sensual. it, of course, doesn’t help that my wife is 4 hours by plane and a further 13 hours drive away. but she’ll be here soon. woo hoo!

i just needed to share that before i crawl in to bed.

have a good night all and i hope you all enjoy some form of intimacy with the person you love.

The Rotenberg Collection: Forbidden Erotica

Miss Exotic World Pageant

and a midafternoon moment of zen

the installs continue apace, i should be finished in about an hour, then i can do the desktop swap, so i don’t have to keep logging off and logging back on whenever someone needs to check the mail. i’m writing a story for vic, so i’ll be back later.

have a good afternoon.

 

we’re rich, we’re rich

On June 19, 2003, in links, by keifel

well we’re not, but i’ve always said, i never harrass people that owe me money, because when i need it most they usually come through.

so said, so done, this morning i got enough money to get me through the weekend and to payday, as long as i’m thrifty. and not wanting to go through this again next week, i sure as hell am going to be.

otherwise things are fine, i just did the diagnostics on both machines, i’m in the process of doing the last set of os 9 updates, then i’m going to get started on jag.

in the news today

another virgin mary sighting

the world’s luckiest, unluckiest man (just read the damn story)

(another sign of the end times) Tom Cruise is lobbying politicians for money

i’ll be back with more news later, need to go check on the other machine. not in my line of sight.

good morning

On June 19, 2003, in links, techology, work, by keifel

DAYS TIL VICTORIA GETS HERE: 29

how bad is it when you’re borrowing money off your child? i’m about to find out, i’m going to grab a shower, see if there is anything edible in this kitchen, then head off to the office, first order of business, major diagnostics on the art dept machines, then upgrade to os x. i never realised how much i like os x til i have to use 9 on a daily basis and how flaky and counterproductive it is.

in other news, there was this hottie in the italian job. apparently he was also in confidence, but the thought of having to watch ed burns in another movie… well i’d rather have my eye put out with a dull stick… needless to say i’ll be giving it a miss.

underdog onlinecelebrating the underdog and the outsider in a healthily frivolous and assertive way

underdog also has a link to the very secret diaries of the LOTR characters (it’s been around a while, but i had forgotten how funny they were)

and not quite foodie porn – failed foods

i’m off to get something to eat and head off to the office, more later, i’m going to have lots of time on my hands today, while the computers do stuff.

who comes up with this shit

On June 18, 2003, in entertainment, opinions, by keifel

i know i posted the results for the vh1 greatest songs of the last 25 years, but i was watching it tonight, backhole boys, nelly…

what the fuck?

the only thing more annoying that was the 100 greatest hip hop moments/artist. i’m curious as to the people who make these decisions. they obviously need a crash course in good fucking taste.

but of course we’ll continue to watch.

i’m not really pissed, just working the edge off of being hungry, one meal a day does that to you.

adieu. talk to you tomorrow.

how could i pass this up

On June 18, 2003, in memes, by keifel

reading PTG’s blog –  how could i pass up a questionnarie on books and reading… must be incredibly distracted

1. Newspapers or magazines? i stopped looking at newspapers when i started working in advertising

2. Books-on-tape or regular books? Regular books.

3. Paperback or hardcover? either one is fine, i’m such a book slut

4. Fiction or non-fiction? usually fiction

5. Sci-Fi/Fantasy or romance novels? sci-fi

6. Borrow from library or buy books (either new or used)?can’t afford to buy books here, i borrow from friends and now that i have my library card, i’m going to be unstoppable (mwah ha hah ha)

7. Subscribe to magazines or buy on newsstand? online versions now

8. Current best-sellers or classic literature? whatever strikes my fancy

9. Read books once, or re-read favorites every so often? reread and reread.

10. Here in the U.S., we have two hot best-sellers…former First Lady Hillary Clinton’s memoirs, and the new Harry Potter book (coming out June 21). If you had to read one, which one…Hillary or Harry? Why? i love HP and i’m looking forward to the new one

being broke always puts me in a vile mood

On June 18, 2003, in links, rants, by keifel

i really should have a better control of these mood swings. but the concept of spending what is a 4 day weekend with $4 in my wallet does not fill me with joy. this couple with the fact that i’m supposed to go into work over the next two days.
i actually get paid because it’s a holiday, but fat lot of good it’s going to do me, getting to and fro and getting something to eat.

in an attempt to focus on things other that was destitute state relative to amount of cash that is owed to i’ve been surfing, trying to find various entertainments. there is a lot of serious news but i’m not up to it right now.

these opening gambits are quite entertaining

then there are the continuing adventures of nerve guinea pig- grant stoddard at leather camp

an early forerunner for the bad sex in fiction prize, yes there is such a prize, here are some other examples

going to lay down and read for a while.

 

regaining a mesure of control

On June 18, 2003, in links, work, by keifel

wow this being assertive things works. yeah right, the forecast of rain all weekend forced the cancellation of the shoot, i’m going to have to work over the next two days using the stock photos i’d found, but somehow i feel more comfortable with that. and when the we get final approval from client well know exactly what and how need stuff shoot.

it’s nice to have that particular load of shit off my shoulders. also means i don’t have to get up at some ridiculous hour on friday morning. that being said i should get to work on the layouts and routing the pictures, but i don’t particularly feel like.

so i’ll indulge in some midday surfing.
