"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
Steph survived Captain Caveman! EXCELLENT!
Is Dick Clarke dead? Also, I'm watching parts of Live 8 on AOL.
This is what I've learned.
- I am an old fogey cause I don't recognize many of the bands.
- My love of Michael Stipe does not allow forgiveness of the face paint.
- Pink Floyd looks OLD. Not rode hard put away wet, just looking their age. The drummer? resembles a newscaster or a friend of Richard Nixon.
- Pink Floyd SOUNDS old. Their voices have changed.
- On the other hand? Bryan Adams has NOT aged at all. What's that about? Deal with the devil? Some sort of Canadian/Chapeau conspiracy?
- Chris Martin is like an uglier version of Jude Law.
- Matt Pokora is surprisingly hunky. go the third photo in the paris gallery.
- I'm too old and crabby to go to a big rock festival ever again. This is a good thing to know about oneself.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
How sad is that I am actually glad the weekend is almost over?

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I was very busy for much of the weekend. I need a rest - maybe this means bedtime?

Fine, go back to work, ya grinder. Leisure is wasted on you. Leave it to the truly indolent.

move out and draw fire
Is such a lovely description of jetlag
And not mine - it's William Gibson's. But it's perfect so I've adopted it.
I am SO GLAD this week is over. Highlights include 8 Americans hospitalized, most for scooter accidents, one with serious burns over 75% of his body. A couple Americans dying. One of whom died a week ago, alone in her house, and wasn't found for a couple days. It's been around 100 degrees here every day. A couple Americans arrested, not for anything serious, but they couldn't call home because guess what kids today can't do? They can't make long-distance phone calls. They had cellphones and calling cards only. One American who wandered off from her tour group and got lost. 5 lost passports. One of these who wanted the US Gov't to pay the extra charge it was going to cost her to reschedule her return flight, and got extremely verbally abusive when we declined (the airline was allowing her to go on stand-by status for no additional charge anyway). And the corker was a woman whose adult son stopped taking his psychotropic drugs and refused to return to the States with her. He's adult and hadn't broken any laws, but she tried to get him arrested anyway to make him come back with her...so she told the police he'd hijacked a plane with a gun. This disinclined the police to play nice, and also disinclined the airline to let him on board. Go figure.
Normal weeks involve maybe 2 lost passports.
