can I come running in, panting, and give you a hug, too? though it seems you are not in need of exuberance, but some of this tomato soup I have?
glo, sorry to hear it… I was wondering at the terseness, but didn’t want to pry. I’ll wander back to my planning, too, it’s going well. You are the best. Don’t forget it. Even in your sweats.
Hey, beans.
Nov 9, 2009 at 8:58 am
Comment #138899
Thanks, beans. You made me cry, but not in a bad way.
I’m going to drift off aimlessly back to the knitting chair for a while, but I probably won’t be gone long.

Comment #138898
ugh. it is times like this that internet friends just don’t cut it. you need the biggest hug.
*gives glo biggest internet hug possible*
i prescribe watching tv in baggy sweats all day, not brushing your teeth and drinking lots of tea. and then at the end of the day, take a bath, wash your face and brush your teeth, get the sad-day-grunge of and go to sleep.
(i saw my friend on campus this morning and he gave me a hug and i realized how important they are and how much i’m deprived of them)

I just can’t believe that they don’t have a backup plan for when the Undergraduate Chair is unavoidably detained.
I didn’t know we were having problems either. I was really happy until about 5 days ago.

no such thing as TMI with you glo. i didn’t know you and Motorcycle were having problems. i’m sorry. can we all enjoy a good wallow?
i’m battling with my pathological-over-thinking-ahead-ness and projecting the fact that i can’t get a meeting today means i won’t get into the classes i need means i will have to take a year off means away from Boyfriend another year.
i want to be battling with “you are such a f***ing asshole” because then i can work up a good rage, but no one is committing any particular assholery

Hi beans, I am jealous. I am about to receive a shipment of yarn ordered to make more socks for the Motorcycle. I ordered them the day before he abruptly and inexplicably became Not-Knitworthy. I am likely to not get dressed today, and it will be difficult to convince myself to brush my teeth.
Did I just wander into TMI land?

hi boys and girls.
my computer is broken. my advisor is sick. my driver’s liscence is expired* and my student card is lost. i want to get a haircut but am not sure it fits in the budget.
But
only two more days until i go see Boyfriend!
also: gerard butler is hot, even when he is a maniacal venge-filled terrorist.

No, I was paying attention. I call it swine flu, but should call it the other.
‘you’ is that pesky third person ‘you’ down there. Just substitute ‘one’.
See you ‘glo. I’ve had a shower, so feel better. Have a nice day. Maybe I’ll catch you later.

No, rose, you’re not paying attention! I call it swine flu, lol.

Oh, maybe your note to Adam should say… I’ll have to stop being nice to the note writer who is nice to the note writer, or something similar. You probably said it. I’ll check out your post again.

Comment #138889
Thanks, glo. I just took some echinacea (sp?) which usually works pretty well, and the tomato soup will help too. If I get my planning done well and good, and stop feeling slothful and so forth, it will help.
I think I’ve got to get used to calling it the H1N1 as everyone I know in education across three countries is… I guess you say ‘aitch-one, en-one’ right? It’s sweeping through Niigata, apparently. Maybe it is just as well that I don’t follow the news much. Our college has only had one case though, I think. I hope you don’t have it. But Fan had it, apparently.
Nov 9, 2009 at 6:29 am
Comment #138888
Let me make you a big bowl of tomato soup, rose. And while you’re waiting, you can drink this orange juice. You must go to bed early and not lurk if you are coming down with something.
My mom, my older sister, and Nephew the Elder have all had something that very likely was swine flu (refuse to call it H1N1, how lame-ass). So maybe I will get it too, hooray!

Sorry for the delay, Wade. I was getting caught up over at my knitting site, because there was a thread about getting rid of a spammer for a lesbian dating site and all hell broke loose when someone asked that the tags the spammer added to the group be deleted with all the posts.
What’s wrong with that, you ask? The poor person said that the tags lesbian, kiss, girl, and dating weren’t appropriate in, for instance, the American Girls knitting group, which is aimed at pre-teens and teens.
You see, Teh Gheys don’t like it when you try to “sanitize” the site of the “non-sexual” word lesbian.
Hoo boy. Some people are just itching to be offended and persecuted, you know?

Thanks, oi. I really enjoyed that. I love the tabla and her voice is very soft. There is one point in the song that strangely enough reminds me of a point in a Joan Baez song (covering Bob Dylan). I’ll post it in a minute (if I can find it).
I know she’s not Indian, but Umm Kulthum and her orchestra were admired by Led Zeppelin. You can hear the kind of influence in a lot of their songs. Robert Plant has a good voice, too.
Again, I know you haven’t read it, but I loved “A Suitable Boy” for all of the information it had on raga(s) and so on. I’m just a dilettante, but I really like the tabla, and also that spoken voice-chatting kind of music.

Ah, quite the time difference. Probably not. Wade, that is what I really dislike about the encroaching winter, too. It’s dark by 5pm here nowadays. However, the sun still comes up relatively early (6am – lightening a little before). When I lived in ChCh, NZ it used to come up about 8-8.30a.m. – I could hardly bear that.

Please don’t talk like this.
Don’t insist on leaving today.
Give it a thought,
why shouldn’t stop you?
When you leave,
life goes out of me.
For your own sake, beloved
Just listen to this one plea,
don’t insist on leaving today,
keep sitting beside me.
Don’t insist on leaving today.
Life is trapped in time’s bars,
just a few solitary moments are free.
And if you lose them too, my beloved,
you shall keep craving forever.
Don’t insist on leaving today,
keep sitting beside me.
Don’t insist on leaving today.
What an innocent hueful meeting this is
of beauty and love, they rule today.
Who knows what lies in tomorrow,
Let’s make this night stand still.
Don’t insist on leaving today,
keep sitting beside me.
Don’t insist on leaving today.
