dammit. Diaryland fucked me again. I clicked over, hit 'my diary' and
it erased my ejournal entry. God damn. Anyway, here's todays
d'land entry.
2002-07-11 - 8:00 a.m.
Dammit, I'm fucking exhausted. And I don't know why. Probably
allergies, the default for any uggy feelings when you live in Austin.
I am starting to think that I should have stuck with my original plan
and gone to Vegas to deal blackjack after college graduation...
Last night was fun. I got off work an hour early, hit the gym, then
washed up and went to see The Brobdingnagian Bards at Cafe Mundi. I
wore my "Got Mead?" T-shirt, figuring the rennies in the crowd would
appreciate it, but as usual, was invisible. Ah well.
The wild green parakeets were doing their thing, and the guys were
great and funny and cute (as always), AND wearing kilts, so it was a
good show. I should have brought my camera.
One of the cafe-goers who was not there for the Bards' show was this
cute little goth girl in big tall shoes and bondage pants! I haven't
seen those in ages! It was so precious. I just love little gothies.
I saw the best house on the way to Cafe Mundi...I don't remember
where it was, now, of course. But it was painted this really godawful
orange, with all these silvery aluminum-framed windows everywhere,
and all these strange levels and half-levels and a kind of
rectangular tower in the middle. It was like some geometry
demonstration gone wrong. It was for sale. I want it.
I really should have taken my digital camera with me last night--the
East Side of Austin is a complete freak show. I made a wrong turn on
my way to Cafe Mundi and found this...place on 5th St. It was all
pink stucco arches and domes, plants in big planters, little benches
everywhere...looked like it should have been on the Riverwalk in San
Antonio, or in some Botanical Gardens somewhere...but it was by this
1-block-long stretch of railroad track, and across the street is
warehouses. WTF!? It didn't appear to be attached to a business, a
restaurant, or anything like that. And of course, it was totally
deserted. Very Wierd.
I love my town sometimes. When it isn't sending foul allergen-
saturated air to torment my immune system.
I'm debating whether to clean house a bit and go to bed early
tonight, or go to the Air Coolers meeting with Sweetie. Going to bed
early sounds really good...
=============================
Holy crow!! I thought my tarot entry was hot shit because it had been
clicked on 57 times since its creation, but my hottie list has just
totally blown it out of the water with 97 hits! in less than a week!!
Wow...

Today's horoscopes:
Taurus
Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
There is a dreamlike quality to this day, dear Taurus. And that is
perfectly fine with you! It feels great to cease working so hard for
a change and to let your mind simply wander. It may lead you to some
interesting places. If you have been toying with the idea of starting
your own business, you are likely to have some real inspiration
toward this end today. By all means, write these ideas down. They
will come in handy in the near future.
Gemini
Horoscope (by astrocenter.com)
Today is a day of fantasy and science fiction, dear Gemini. You may
not be physically on vacation, but your brain certainly is! No matter
how hard you may try to focus on a certain task, your mind continues
to wander off into bizarre fantasies. There's no sense fighting it.
You may as well let your thoughts lead you where they may. This is
your mind's way of recharging itself, preparing for the next big push
at work. Allow yourself this small indulgence today.
===========================================================
Last night's dream:
People: Tom, Riley, Dee, Rio, Holly, X.
Place: Roy O West Library/ the train mall in Indianapolis/ an
underground mall/museum place
things: armoire/desk thing with a penny embedded in it, covered in a
thick clear finish. Mylar inflatable fish/whales/shark.
Something about me, Holly, Rio, and X wandering in mall. X and
I had seen the armoire when we were kids, it had great nostalgia
value even though we remembered it differently, I kept describing it
to X and she said 'no no,there was nothing like that" and then when
we saw it, it wasn't exactly as I remembered/described, and now it
was in a display of old furniture.
Shark balloon was hanging overhead, partly deflated. Holly reached
out to grab the nose,and it was out over a ledge, she almost fell off
and I grabbed her (yeelled at her?) and then the front part of the
balloon was blown back and was on the ledge. I was afraid of it even
though it was just a balloon
Tom called on my cell phone and was in a hotel room with Dee. Dee
didn't want to leave, she was just playing video games on the hotel
TV, and Tom was mad because she'd run up a $24 bill playing games,
and he wanted to leave the room but for some reason had to stay with
Dee.
I don't remember much about the Riley part ofthe dream, that was when
the mall/museum was more like Roy O. West,and he and I were talking.
Maybe he had a puppy or something? I don't remember.
wierd dream.
====================
For tomorrow's d'land? Maybe?
e invited me to go watch the Tour de France with her and all her
friends. Yay. Like I want to hang out with a bunch of thin, fit,
successful bike freaks and watch a bunch of guys riding bikes. And
not get to drink beer or eat bar food, because it's all carby. yay.
She invited me to a friend's bday party downtown Saturday nite. I had
originally thoguht Dee was going to spend the night so I said no. Now
Dee won't be spending the night, but I still don't wanna go. Plus
will probably end up doing the San Antonio non-alcoholic PNO.
I'll be driving all over the place on Saturday. I think I will
probably end up missing the Angel Sword demo unless Dee wants to go.
Her friend from Italy is in town Fri nite, Sat, and Sun, so I will
leave it up to Dee to spend whatever time with whoever...
*sigh* I hate always being by myself and having to go most everywhere
I wanna go alone....but it seems easier to make my own plans and come
and go as I please instead of depending on other people, or trying to
accomodate their plans. And I always forget to invite people...even
when I should. I just get tired of 'no' or, more usual, no response
at all....seems pointless to keep asking and inviting and never
hearing back from anyone.
