simple simian
the rat pushes the lever
we can all be trained

you're very lucky
thinking that life is pleasant
its a trick; you care?

i search for pizza

i never find it

nothing worthwhile
nor beautiful, nor holy
was ever simple

my apologies for the creepy poetry as of late; i assure you that its not autobiographical, nor about anyone in particular.

the mission trip was much better than expected, and photos are available.

computers hate me; pagers and monitoring systems seem to love me. every monday i'm on the pager it seems to go off; hooray for me.

that's that. more bad poems soon, don't worry.

lets drink coffee and play chess
i'll tell you how much i love you;
you'll probably talk about your hair.

your unrelenting sexuality
causes me to ignore your banality
which is an obvious fatality
on the road to a certain paucity

I went to London, it was fantastic save for some sort of british flu. I took a lot of pictures of clocks.

I am, at the moment, wearing a silly hat in ORD waiting for my flight to Tennessee to board. I'll be rather offline for the next week (at least I better be), but chose to travel with my laptop just in case I got stranded out east.

today's postsecret.

This image blows my mind, for some reason:


Because its postsecret, I'm forced to assume the creator is referring to some sort of horrible abuse, but the image of luggage in the back of a uhaul (look at that patented flat load floor!) reminds me of the mission trip, in a really nice way. "Go forth and do this good work, and I will herald it."

Of course, this is this century, so in reality I will write about it on the internet.

from the moment i first saw you
i wanted you in my life
pursuit from minute zero.

things were going well
i really thought you liked me
but it didn't work out

i can't imagine why
maybe you weren't really my friend
facebook status aside.

my only regret
is not taking pictures of you
while you slept.

Today, the Times combined collegiate a cappella and Jonathan Coulton and itself into some sort of article that was just for me! Here is a link to it. Best Easter ever.

Today's another two-show-day, but at least the end is in sight. Now I just need to find the time and inclination to get my taxes done, and April should be great!

sweetness
 add comment 

So today's NY Times Magazine article about trangendered kids at traditional girls colleges is probably the sweetest article I've read in the Times this year, as well as being a welcome respite from coverage of the unending nomination fight.

I've read about one book a week while working this show at TheatreWorks, which is fairly impressive given that the show itself is less than two hours long. Finished books: Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, Ringworld, and a random Asimov-branded sci-fi rag. Next up: Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul. Hooray for the little communal library at work.

My booked-up-ness only extends a about 5 weeks from today, and I have 4 days of mostly-unscheduled life in the second week of April as well. I am looking forward to the mission trip like the dickens.

And now, back to hacking. Tah!
