I slept about 4 hours last night…. I was working on tweaking my system, and slumber just didn’t want to take me…Before I knew it, it was 4:30 in the morning. I’m going to hit the sack early tonight.

link o’ the day – symbols.com … a fun graphic resource of symbols and the use of them…. you can search by meaning, or shape. 🙂

example – pic -An ideogram used by some Indian tribes in the south western US, called bear track. Its meaning is a good omen.

Linkers. Not Friends. that’s what I keep telling myself.

so why is it so hard for me to trim my list? I’m too dang nosey. I want to know what’s going on in everyone’s lives.

I want to get down to 50. I don’t see it happening. In fact if I’m not careful, I’m going to add everyone back.

I view some of the folks who link to me, and I link to as actual friends. Others, kindly acquaintances. still others as neato columnists in the life they lead (or don’t.)

Some of you folks are amazing writers..some have a great amount of heart… some impress me with the amount of truth I see in your writing, and others in the outrageously bad lies that I see propagated… to the point where the fish stories are as entertaining as life itself. “Through a glass darkly” I suppose.

So, what do I do? go with it as best I can, stick my nose in where it sometimes will stick. I hope nobody gets offended if I add/remove them.. filter usage just isn’t cutting it for me. I’m also trimming off anyone I haven’t seen post in a month… no point in keeping dead links alive, although. holy moly… see what I’ve missed? I didn’t know mootpoint posted. I love his stuff. nashata is long gone… as is cider. see… that’s what I mean. I want read more than I can….

An old newspaper clipping form my days as a midget wrestler… before my growth spurt ruined my career.

ah, sadly the text is lost, but a photo remains. when puberty hit, my body sprouted a bushel of hair (I’ve had the goatee since infancy…) and I grew another 3 and a half feet inside of a year. Ah well…wrestling is fake and for yahoos anyway. 🙂

I’m pretty agitated… really haven’t seen the gal all weekend due to bad timing or tech trouble… I’m physically very antsy and irritable…. I need my fix of her.

on an up note, my machine is mostly up and running now, with the exception of my #2 monitor… I’m going to have to download directx 8, and hope for the best.

ok…

Got my drivers, and my supplier should be here in about an hour with the repaired bits…soon I’ll have sound, and more access to my machine.

I should be back online by 3ish, 4ish at the latest…it won’t be a moment too soon… I’ve missed my sweetheart so much… haven’t talked with her live for over a day, but we’ve blipped each other e-mail or ICQ.. so I’m not dead from withdrawal… Next time I see her, I’m going to just grab and run… take her to a private place and tell her all the love and desire I have for her…
