clayhornikI've neglected my poor journal too much lately. I've had a bit of writers block, not just lack of inspiration, but lack of motivation. I've just been lately, my notebooks just sat in my backpack unopened. I've been reading some. I watched five hours worth of a Canadian sit-com called The Newsroom the last couple of days. Watched The Siege today, pre 9-11 thriller about terrorists in NYC. Kinda creepy in that context.

Wisely, I stocked up on smokes. Bought some Friday, another pack on Sat just to be safe. Miraculously, I've not run out yet.

Saw Star Wars ep 2, thought Yoda showed more range than the kid.
--
Books I've read recently included This Symbiotic Fascination .
Not the most cheerful thing I read in a while, but still somewhat interesting.

I found a new version of War of the Worlds - not the 1988 50th anniversary NPR edition, but one set on Grand Island, NY, done in the 70's including music from Cher.

Was BS'ing abt the egg for mom's day in case she should read this page- ended up getting her & dad tix to Down From the Mountain- the music of Oh Brother Where Art Thou... she liked that more than any ol' egg.

I saw the Kirstin Dunst movieThe Cat's Meow

Looks like I'm headed to the country with the parents to check out the compound. I need to start stocking up on books for that. If anybody sees this- suggest something. PLEASE. I'm going to a rural, isolated farm house- think "The Evil Dead". I hate crickets. I hate quiet. "Country air means filth to me, I won't breath nothin' I can't see" and all that. No TV either. No computer. I plan on burning some cd's. I hope they appreciate this show of familial unity on my part. Actually, mom just got a new desk and filing cabinet set and I want first dibs when she kicks off. So I gots to work the charms.
Crickets. Ugh. They had an infestation of Ladybugs earlier. That would be cool. If I'm lucky, maybe there'll be a thunderstorm.
