Respite

Taking a break from blogging for awhile. Nothing new to say, tired of bitching about the same old shit.

Talk amongst yourselves.

me again... ok... so you wanna hear a funny story?? Too bad, I'm telling anyway! So I was looking at the title of this post, 'respite', and I'm thinking 'yikes, i hope James isn't angry about something'... since 'respite' sounds a whole lot like 'despite', and I'd never heard the word before... sooooo... i went to webster's and found that

res·pite ( P ) 1. A usually short interval of rest or relief. See Synonyms at pause.
2. Law. Temporary suspension of a death sentence; a reprieve.

So of course I am relieved... and now I just want to say, James, i hope your 'usually short interval of rest or relief' is both restful as well as relieving, and I hope to see you back real soon!

Aha! A New Nine Inch Nails Video . . .

OK, I know I complained about the blog videos in the past, but I got curious and clicked over to check out the website that hosts them . . . you know, to see what was there. Well, I came across the new Nine Inch Nails video for the song "Only." After watching it, I decided I had to share it with everyone because it reminded me of a music video from the '80s by Aha (sp.?). You know the one I'm talking about--unless you're too young to have seen it, let alone remember it.--it was "Take on Me." Obviously the music and sentiment share nothing in common, but the style and medium of the video have an interesting parallel. Both depict being trapped in an alternate plain of existence visible to and of physical reality, but seperated and sharply divided from it--the inner fantasy world juxtaposed and competing with reality. Anyway, enjoy! (Video No Longer Available) Cheers-Thanksalot!

Ezry

We call her the bitchpuss for a reason. But before I get to that, a little early biography . . . She came to use a few weeks after our first anniversary at our first apartment, way back in 1999, when Clinton was still president, gas was 99 cents a gallon, and I had just turned 21 and finished my first semester at college. This tiny voice in the bushes outside our apartment building started mewing at me as I headed off to class. Stooping to peer through the bushes, I discovered the tiny furry black source—and she discovered me! About six-weeks-old and all black except for a white star on her chest, she came tottering out of the bushes and straight toward me. I picked her up and gave a little rub on the head, but being that I was running late, I quickly put her back down under the bushes and convinced myself that she must belong to the people in the apartment behind the bushes (never mind that it was vacant). When I returned from class I didn't see or hear her, so I figured her own...
