Month: April 2004

Was, embarrassingly enough, watching “Gilmore Girls” on Tuesday night as the remote control was lost. This actor who was in a lot of Whit Stillman movies had a guest role and I couldn’t remember his last name. I kept saying, it’s Chris…it’s Chris…but I couldn’t remember his last name. So I went to sleep. And I had one of those weird high school dreams, where people you know from all phases of your life keep popping up and you never actually attend any classes or anything. Anyway, there he was in the hallway and I turned to a friend and said, “Hey, look it’s Chris Eigeman!” Because that’s who it was. The brain does work in mysterious ways…

Incidentally, there used to be a checkout guy at Trader Joe’s who looked just like Chris Eigeman, and I used to get pissed off because he never carded me.

A very strange myth indeed…Erichthonius

When I visited the text gallery, I swear I could smell the pages of old books…

The shrine to the goddess Athena.

Do you know where your towel is?

Choice: Adventure, potential, divine foolishness

XX. JUDGEMENT

Chorus of ourselves singing our sins to the black sun. We are aware of our transgressions and seek inner absolution. To stand and face the dawn of our new convictions in feathered cloaks and hats of resolution. We are transformed. Joy threads our voices as the one lone star of our rebirth shines forth. We are jubilation, we are cleansed, we will go forth and wrestle windmills and prevail. To stand committed, to leave a footprint in the sands of our mortality. It is the deep call of the soul for the stars and for the light.

1)It’s cheap, so very cheap – all you can eat for $5.49, plus the cost of your beverage.
2)Babies eat free, children 5 to 12 are $.99, and they have child friendly things like fake goldfish crackers and raisins and animal cookies,.
3)The awe inspiring variety of it all: Salad, vegetables , meat, cheese, fruit, pasta salad, potato salad, three different soups a day, baked potato bar, taco bar, nachos, gingerbread, blueberry muffins, strawberry shortcake and soft serve ice cream , I swear to god.
4)They don’t complain about the mess when you’re done.
5)Did I mention it was all you can eat?

Top it off with a trip to the park and you have an outing fit for a couple of wee princesses…

Grab the nearest book. Open the book to page 23. Find the fifth sentence.

Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions

Pg. 23, line 5 from “The Sandman: The Kindly Ones” graphic novel, which was literally the nearest book to be grabbed from my computer desk:

“Read me the fortune, will you, Poppet? I want to finish this first. I DO love to hear fortunes.”

How fortuitous that what is basically a form of divination would yield a quote regarding divination.

Then again, it did come from my book collection, which is rife with things of that nature, so it’s maybe not so very eerie or unlikely at all if you really think about it.

You can send a fax from an email address. It’s a tad complex, but if you’re smart enough to be reading this blog, you’re smart enough to figure it out, right? She says most humbly:)

Beauty and eternity

There are beauty, vigor and, perhaps, love in your life, even though it might be difficult to see them now. Try to focus on the positive, even when it’s hard- and still more during the good times! Be careful not to scatter your energies, however; while many options may all be good, sometimes one still must choose between them.

Courage and endurance

This is a time of challenge for you. You have the courage and tools you need to get through this time, and to prevail- even if you feel, at times, that you can’t. Persevere, and you will succeed- so be sure the goal is worth the winning.
