Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The result of the Craigslist thing is that I stop trying to be helpful. I'm not rude, I answer e-mails, I do what I say I'll do. But I'm not going to go out of my way to do anything for someone who's 75% likely to blow me off.

“Not dead yet!”

Daaaaaaaamn. That's, like, my whole adolescence.

Aw man, no kidding.

And the email to DPW bounces. Jackasses.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm finding myself surprisingly moved by John Hughes' death.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

RE: John Hughes. Yep. Heart attack. Heard about it at work (one of the hazzards of working here I suppose).

Aaand, nobody's here. I do know my former boss & her husband, my realtor, one of my less conversational coworkers and lisah have said they'll come. Other friends? NSM. Guess that happens in the summer.

John Hughes was 59. Way too young.

Around here, at least, no one arrives on time. There's always that 20 minutes of blank time in which I think, "Do I start drinking now?"

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We have never thrown a party where my (very prompt) husband did not spend the first hour pacing while telling me that no one was going to come. But people always come late.
