I’m The James Bond Villain Personality Test!
I live in a fictional world of spies and blonde women with ridiculous names, and I like to give people plenty of options. Although whether they’re villainous is not optional.
… I’m hunting jobs.
Which are of course, more elusive than wascawwy wabbits.
I figure if I can’t bring myself to do the kind of work I have on my plate, that I’d better take some action to get some other kind of work. This brings up a lot of fear of rejection and all that of course. What if I find a company I’d really like to work for and THEY don’t like ME? A load of horsepucky of course, … Read the rest
I seem to be having tremendous difficulty in getting anything done that makes me any money. I hate to think that my disdain for money runs so deep that it compromises my ability to do things I would enjoy if I weren’t making money from them.
We finished Cool Beans! about a week ago, and I’m very proud of the work that I did on it, and of course pleased with everyone else’s work but the universe revolves around ME here … Read the rest
| You’re Captain Archer! You’re always in control of situations and are very adventurous. You’re a leader, but you’re also laid back and willing to listen to what others have to say. You look a great deal like a scientist from 1999 named Dr. Sam Beckett.Take the Enterprise Quiz!

Well, today my problems are a lot less than they were a couple days ago.
First: I have an apartment! I signed the rental agreement yesterday, so now all I have to do is get my stuff into it. This is proving to be more difficult than I had first thought. The person who had agreed to take a couple loads of stuff forgot some previous engagements today and won’t be able to move things until after dark tonight, and I … Read the rest
So last night I went to the gym, and what an amazing difference some good (or bad) motivation can do! It was unbelievable. For a while after Vikki and I split I would watch myself in the mirror telling myself I was building the body SHE CAN’T HAVE. Which was great. It kept some fire in me and I made some pretty decent progress in a short while.
This technique helped a lot of things. One of the reasons that Vikki … Read the rest
There’s this Sting song on Brand new Day called Fill her up which sounds kind of annoying because Sting does this imitation of an American accent, but it tells a story which really resonates with me.
It’s about a guy who works at a gas station in the middle of nowhere and some city slicker shows up in a fancy sportscar taking his hot babe fiancee to Vegas to get married («yeah, that’s a real diamond»). The teller of the story … Read the rest
Something about Macarthur Park sums up how I’ve been feeling lately. Who was the asshole that left the cake out in the rain? Dammit.
I had a dream last night that I went on a road trip with Hammerhead, and that we went «camping» in strangers’ homes. We pulled in to their driveways and snuck in to the homes of suburbanites and slept in their guest bedrooms. Sometimes our unwitting hosts would pass by the doors on their way to … Read the rest
Watching the little puddles on the roof outside Destiño’s window ripple from the raindrops coming down. Makes me want to find my grandmother’s cake recipe, spend hours baking a cake with sweet green icing, throw the recipe away and take the cake outside and leave it near MacArthur BART.
But I don’t think that I could take it.… Read the rest
Lovely meteor shower last night. I don’t think I’ve ever seen them so dramatic. Feeling very fortunate to have broken out of my depression long enough to get out of the house and go on a little field trip.
Something interesting happened last night. I enjoyed the company of a lovely young woman. I don’t want to make too much of this, because there’s not that much to tell, but sometimes I come to a hallway in my life where I … Read the rest
