Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

I'm subscribing to your newsletter.

Faking it until you make it is just as stylish, I'd say.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I would *really* like Google Reader to stop crashing Firefox.

Really, it would make my day so much better.

Count me in as one of the people under the weather.

Happy Birthday little Buffista, Frisco!

All the pope stuff reminds me how glad I am to be an ex-catholic.

The Blagojavich stuff just boggles my mind!

The Kitty cam is cute.

I have been in Iowa for a week now, and today was the day to get out there and push those resumes! Instead, I over slept, have had an extended nap and have not changed out of my jammies.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'd like to fake it too. Working on that.

A marketing firm wants to interview me on Wednesday. I'm trying to see the good in this. I mean, I'm going, but me as marketing management? I have no qualifications! And they say they've read my resume. I can't shake the feeling that they're going to try and sellme something. Maybe I should have told them I'm broke.

Any interview is good practice and, who knows, maybe the need someone with a different perspective to help them succeed. Lord knows I was no techiie when I joined a software developer 20 years ago. Helped them go from 100k per year ot 100k per month. It was a wild ride and we all had fun!

My current guru, as I've said here before is Wayne Dyer. I am not unlike a cult member wrt this topic.

Good luck on the interview, ita!

An interesting interview with Rachel Maddow, although Lesley Stahl seems like a bit of a twit at times. "Chris Matthews is a liberal!" Uh, no, he's not, Lesley. "How can you watch SNL if you don't have a tv?" Uh, there's such a thing as "the internet," Lesley. "Let me get my plugs for 60 Minutes in the middle of my questions!" Uh, go for it, Lesley.
