7346 –

Well, that was an uneventful Friday night. I got home about 5pm, showered to go out, and had a “quick lay down” to charge my batteries up. I awoke at 5am, when EN called me about a missing Alz case.

Looks like I’m getting together with Danny today instead.


I was trying to figure a way to be nice to Liz a the office… She’s all by herself in town right now, with no pals locally. I’d like to ask her out as a friend, not on a date. I think the only social time she gets is lunch with us. Maybe get a couple of folks as a mob to go to the voodoo lounge.


Yahoo! launches new Web-based mail… currently in beta, but it looks good.

7343 – Friday… ah.

Night out with Danny? Meet those gamer guys? Hard to say. One or the other depending on how it flies. Checking out 2 new condos in Hollywood this weekend, too.

Ah, choco chippie cookies arrived yesterday in a box the size of New Zealand. (FedEx large!) Newton also liked the brown-paper padding to protect on the edges of the Tupperware container. They are delicious, and only a little settling occurred in shipping. (a choco chip cookie tastes just as good when broken in half, anyhow!)

Thank you so very, very much, weezleweezle! You’re a very kind friend, and I appreciate your delightful efforts! Maybe that “trade of goods” could work out after all! 😉


Very Brief Moment of Lyric (mp3) – will expire in 7 days or so. Thanks, edenette!

Nice time in 2nd life… touring is a hoot with a sweet conversationalist. I need to learn a little notecard scripting for the orb, and it’ll be even better. Related – Wells Fargo Buys ‘Second Life’ Island

http://home.vicnet.net.au/~kwgow/crossovers.html – how characters in one show relate to another. Superman, Get Smart, Maude and St. Elsewhere all take place in the same universe.

216 shows are connected to Homicide: Life on the Street and St. Elsewhere, for a grand total of 218 series.

Here’s a handy Chart.

7335 – Humpday, already?

Well, new work recruits Liz and Sara both seem quite nice. I feel a bit like a Hippie/Thug Bosley from Charlie’s Angels going out to lunch with RS, LM and VS. Me and three cute Mid-20-something gals is fun.


I got a note from Fedex that they’ll try and deliver again tomorrow… I suspect it’s my goodies from weezeronithe weezle!

Newton has taken to thieving my red string. I should get him one to wear as a collar. I think he likes the little green circular bead enmeshed in the middle… or maybe it reminds him of milk rings we play with. Or maybe he’s a cat and that twine is his natural prey. (He never really messes with my sandalwood prayer-beads I got from Sedef a few years back, though they’re twine-y in places, too.


2nd life has been quite the thing lately, an odd mix of nice folks… or is that nice mix of odd folks? HP and Qdot are cool, nice folks to hang and gab with… I’ve also discovered some things to be leery of, like “adult-oriented furries“. (wiki entry, pretty safe for work, I think)

I’ve got a few avatars now, but the one I usually wear looks mostly Scotto-like, but I’ve also got a Newt-looking one, and a Dalek that’s pretty keen.


I’ve found that an old Hawkman Lapel pin makes a much better TV antenna than I thought.


I’m really fascinated by apriljoy’s video posts. Very interesting to see a face, a voice and body language with the monologue. I’m debating a video-journal entry or two using the palm-cam. (each of her entries are from 2-3 minutes long.. good little blurbs of life. Her voice and mannerisms reminds me a bit of sedef.

I test-uploaded a video at my section… about a year ago, I caught some Newton footage. Not sure why it didn’t snag the sound. Here it is in quicktime, with sound active.

7334 – Nice day for Presents in the mail!

I got a lovely red thread from the Lisa2 It now adorns my palmtop case, which never leaves my side.

“An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but never break.”

I also got a received a groovy postcard from bubbles3563! A lovely shot of a mole sailor on a clipper ship near a curvy lighthouse. Thank you! It now has a revered spot on my fridge.


The walking weather is getting superb. The air is just a little cool in the early morning, prime for walkies, without all the eye-fry of the city of glass/disco ball dawn effect. I’m looking forward to more brisk weather soon.


2 new employees at work… Accounting assistant and A fund-raiser-type. Both seem to be quite friendly, and ready to play. BK has been quite generous to me again lately… good thing, because a number of other folks have been ticking her off, big time.


2nd life continues to impress, as do the people contained therein.


Moment of Lyric: (MP3)

battersea – how it is
it’s over – forget
memories full of chocolate
got to get over it – forget
your world is different than mine
got to get over it – got to forget
and sigurd is the one i don’t like
I’m afraid of him – I’ve got to forget
knocking on the blue water
it’s over – forget
praline and chocolate ice
got to get over it – forget
your world doesn’t match with mine
got to get over it – got to forget
and sigurd rules your friend’s life
I’m afraid of him – got to forget

Dude digs it
