MmmmHmm.

What little of the eclipse I could witness,
through cloud cover and trees -

stumbling endlessly
up and down the treacherous driveway of our circle
in the dark with a penlight -
alarming the neighbors
as
I
kept watch for Bigfoot -

- totally worth it.

Stuffs to remember:

a) poems for people who don't exist, recalling events that never happened

b) 'It was that one simple gesture, natural to him, that set off all the alarm bells of the past that she'd swallowed and strangled away - and forced her to realize that she was about to die..or something like it.'

Just woke up with my dear little Echo, holding onto my hand, on the pillow. It's like, she has to be touching you, constantly - such a sweetie. God help me, but I CAN'T WAIT to go today to get her a litter box and other accoutrements.

Got some sound, sage advice from, [livejournal.com profile] gayalithiel - who is the pet expert, and - I just know it - laughing, "I told you so", as she's been saying FOR YEARS, NOW that I need a pet. She's been right.

This cat. Tried to follow me INTO THE SHOWER, last night. So cute, this little black face - looking worried and mewing piteously - pressed up against the clear shower liner..Apparently, she also had to 'go', while I slept, but was smart enough to, 'go' in the bathroom. I want to get the litter box right away, so she doesn't get used to going THERE..but, I must say that I'm impressed.

*~*~*

My daughter called, and what a mess is underway, with meeting-with-lawyers-on-Monday and such. The GOOD thing is, her neck is healing on its own - and her pain is random and minimal. Thank God. She should have her car back on Tuesday - - and then, the billing nightmares begin. The perp cannot be reached - STILL - as he's in jail.

*~*~*

Watched, Bladerunner - and it was still awesome, after all these years. :)

And yes, I could totally see how it was a huge influence on Gary Numan - who's a huge fan of Phillip K. Dick's books which is why I re-watched it, in the first place... Next up, tonight, is, Dreamscape - another Numan-rec (the song, I Am Render, from the, Warriors album is based on on Roger Zelazny's sci-fi novel, The Dream Master, upon which the movie was based).

Try not to laugh - as he's no Rutger Hauer or anything, but, apparently wished he was - Read more... )

Heh. What a bad-ass, no? Me, I'm just a fan of that baseball bat, really :) Well, that and his hilarious bondage gear outfit - and we won't even go INTO the hair. This was - to me - part and parcel of Gary's long downward spiral; just horrible music, really - jazz and funk-oriented, and drowning in female backing vocals - FROM GARY NUMAN, mind you - not my cuppa, at all. The only song off that album that's tolerable is, The Iceman Comes, really; LOVE that..and, to a MUCH lesser degree, the title track, above, and The Tick-Tock Man, and, Love Is Like Clock Law..but, that's just me, and you know how I get :/

*~*~*

Apparently, this cat likes...buttered toast..and licking my nose. Not a fan of my reading glasses, though.

More (semi-bad) Gary. This is that song, [livejournal.com profile] gayalithiel..Read more... )

Well, we didn't go.

I know.



All within a matter of two hours -

a) JUST as I was leaving to pick up my mother, she calls, in a panic: "I lost my MAC Card. I can't go anywhere. I don't know what to do; I can't just cancel it!", etc.

b) Torrential rains and flash floods, literally CLOSING the PA Turnpike. CLOSING IT. Any alternate routes would add at least half an hour to the already tight schedule - lots of flash floods, all around.

c) DJ: "My tires are terrible; you're going to be hydroplaning all over the place. You WILL die. You can't take that car."

d) FWIW, Pete - at LESS than, 'the last minute', agreed to drive and go, after much haggling. This included an oil change for his car, and a full tank of gas. Also, FWIW, he cancelled his plans to do this - with three minutes notice.

e) I KNEW IN MY HEART THAT WE WOULD NOT MAKE IT WHEN STUCK BEHIND A BLACK SUV-THING ON THE WAY TO PETE'S. The type of vehicle? An, 'OUTLANDER'. Yep. I knew..Then and there, I knew.

f) His mother was freaking out, over the weather. Much with the stress. Making him eat a fucking hamburger before he left..

g) THE GODDAMNED DIRECTIONS FELL. OUT. OF. MY PURSE.

THESE INCLUDED THE CONFIRMATION NUMBER TO PICK UP THE TICKETS AT, 'WILL CALL'.


We discover this, after we'd left, in a mad rush.

h) So we decided to call DJ and have him read us the number AND directions over the phone.

THIS IS WHEN WE DISCOVERED THAT PETE HAD LEFT HIS PHONE AT HOME..



Speechless, we turned his car around and came home.

End of story.
Can't get any more cut-and-dried than that.
Right now, it feels like the doors of Heaven have been slammed in my face.
I really tried!
