perpetuity comes from perpetuus perpetrator comes from per- patrare me learns. tonite im doing homework. its good to know how to calculate present values of cash from the future. its also good to know how to figure out the chances of you pulling colored or flavored dog biscuits from a box with seven colors and seven flavors. i posted new pictures that i pulled out of a box and scanned with my 7 year old scanner. it is showing its age with grace and dignity.
upgraded the server to 2.0 decided change is good. this is the weenie temporary look.
i spoke with many people about the explosions in the sky show at emos ‘yesterday.’ i didnt know about the show until monday and when i went to buy a ticket i found they were indeed in scarce supply. then i became sad that i would not get to see them. tonite i thought about not seeing this band a lot. because i have listened to them often in moments of emotional duress good and bad. and i thought i wanted to see them like all the other bands i love. but they are different. i dont want to be there at the venue i saw USE and gang of four and go team and 8 bit and that camo band that screams and et al. explosions in the sky are something pristine in my naive little mind. i dont want to see them beyond that french guys recordings that i found online. i only want to hear them. no pretentious dancing or wobbling on one of two knees no 4 dollar beer no intentional dim lights no awkward transition bands no bizarre iced bathroom no frenzy downtown no mistaken lust. i want to hear the notes that i can now foretell when i hear the only moment we are alone and yasmin the light and look into the air and your hand in mine. i want to feel those sounds the way ive felt them since my friend mentioned a band that i would definitely love. maybe with a bottle of gin that gets passed with reticence. a slow back and forth before sunrise in kmart lawn chairs in air that is warm and humid and smogged. maybe a single look that burns me with acknowledgement. enjoy the show who go.
on a lighter note my trip to arizona was fantastic. i played with any one of seven kids pretty much all the time and am merrier for it. my cousin zahir and i hung out like we did in chicago late late late and watched movies and listened to music.
lots happened while i was there. i ate like a king, i played scrabble, saw the producers, played basketball with someone about 24 inches tall, was thrown in tennis court jail, attacked a dianoga, and ate oranges, pecans, and grapefruits off the tree. also i finally had the mess of sheeps fur that had attached itself to my head lopped off.
there are alot of pictures, mostly of kids and family. that is mainly because frankly i dont have some deep seated infatuation with arizona though much of it was muito interesado. i mostly just love my family.
its time to be back in school. i have a horrible schedule that is not dispersed over the week at all. it doesnt …
the thrills album so much for the city was played over and over by my cousin and it is the one that i am listening to now. my trip to arizona was great. kids are cooler than everyone.
happy new year!
holiday in houston was good.
hung out with my family and did next to nothing.

got to see my super awesome peeps nigel and suzy.
they live in alaska so visits are few and far between.
