now I'm thinking about the language floor

[fflo]

sprig5 was talking about the "sheesh" news about a sorority at DePauw, and I was commenting. The language floor was one of the best places---along with the writers' union hangouts and, say, the back & basement of Bill Smith---at my school. (There was no writers' residence space from my sophomore year until the year after I left the place, as they tore down the mecca that was Richmond House, along with its best-graffiti-ever bathroom.)

I am getting work done, in case you're wondering. Wandery mind, that's all. But firing on pretty much all cylinders when on task. I was quite schnazzy on one galley a bit ago, if I do say so m'self.

Oh, I remember the Villa. Forgot that's what ya'll called it, but that was one fun day.

Coworker who just got back from vacation was talking about how great it was not to have to be anywhere in particular or do anything in particular. That got me to thinking about the professional student, and how attractive that aspect of it is.

Say, will you tell the story of the hottest f**k ever in your blog, by any chance? I do love that story.

Well, I dunno. Folks would probably think I was making it up. Stuff like that just doesn't happen. Funny, when I think about it, the kinds of "stuff" that used to happen in my life. I used to have a grand old time. Risky, perhaps even dangerous, but awfully fun. And alive.

Mayeb the arrival of spring will help with that felling alive bit.

hope so!

my latest horoscope scares me:

CANCER (June 21-July 22): What were those square LED devices that suddenly appeared at random outdoor locations around nine American urban areas in January? They turned out to be the main ingredients of a silly promotional campaign for the TV show "Aqua Teen Hunger Force." The citizens of New York, L. A., Chicago, Atlanta, Seattle, Portland, Austin, San Francisco, and Philadelphia took the prank in stride, but Boston officials saw it as a terrorist threat. Is it any coincidence that this horoscope column, Free Will Astrology, has long appeared in newspapers published in all the above cities except Boston? I think not. It's evidence that the advice contained herein raises intelligence levels and helps users know the difference between real and imagined threats. So maybe you'll believe me when I tell you, Cancerian, that the only threat you face right now is from the part of you that thinks a certain imagined threat is real.

Is that the threat I think he's talking about? How certain am I of my take on his "certain"? oh mi

I do think you and I both could benefit from a little more risk, especially if we can do it without the whole caution-to-the-wind.

Back to work, back to work...
