7711 – Music, how I love thee.

Last night’s fortune cookie –

“Pride is a good thing to have, but don’t overdose on it”
Lucky numbers 12,20,25,30,31,49
Learn Chinese – Pot sticker – Guo-tie

Hmm.. So far, I’ve mostly learned words for food, and baseball. I like the cookies at the China Panda, because they have a faint citrus taste to ’em.

Dinner was a splurge, because I’m under house arrest for the who weekend. I got General Tso’s Tofu (extra crispy and spicy). Yum… also, the broccoli was plentiful and super-fresh.


Talked to bro briefly last night, and he sounds a little congested. He’s taking sleep meds and stuff for depression, and I’m concerned that there will be abuse of one or both of those. He seems quite lucid at the moment.


“There is an Indian Belief that everyone is in a house of four rooms: A physical, a mental, an emotional and a spiritual. Most of us tend to live in one room most of the time, but unless we go into every room everyday, even if only to keep it aired, we are not complete.” – Rumer Godden


Moment of Lyric – The Allen Brothers – Jake Walk Blues (m4a file)

I can’t eat, I can’t talk
Been drinkin’ mean jake, Lord, now can’t walk
Ain’t got nothin’ now to lose
Cause I’m a jake walkin’ papa with the jake walk blues.

7709 – still awake.

Still awake. My sleep patterns are more disrupted by this situation than the whole 9/11 thing, probably because it’s an ongoing struggle, not so much of a “flash and crash” disaster.


Fats Domino – Helping Hand: (mp3via)

I’m a thousand miles away from home, sleeping in the rain
A thousand miles away from home, waiting for a train
Nobody seems to want me or give me a helping hand
I nevermore will roam again if I ever get home again

Glad to have you found, sir.


Wind chimes outside are over-sounding the noises inside… just key-clicks, and computer fans at the moment.

I’m in a mood to go out and walk in the dark, but can’t, because I’m still tethered to the home-office due to call. It’s been a surprisingly quiet night for missing people. I suspect that the phone will be rather tricky in a few hours, because the office is closed for the holiday, but people will still call.

We’ve been getting a lot of calls for the Florida Marine Patrol.. I think someone’s telephone directory has us listed there by mistake, or on a line just above or below where the other one should be.
