"YOU ARE TRAPPED IN THAT BRIGHT MOMENT WHERE YOU LEARNED YOUR DOOM." --Samuel R. Delaney
"The rain, it only pours around here." --Warren EllisFinally got a copy of
Rebel Bookseller. Thanks Mom! (Despite my manly image, I'm a bit of a Mamma's boy.) Knocked off the first eighty pages before bed last night. Good stuff.
Though we still have no gas, all else is well. Did yard work, hung out with family, watched
Stop Loss and an episode of
Burn Notice, read, and drank beer yesterday. The mail also brought be a nice flyer package from
Calliope Nerve contributor
Christine Stoddard.
Today's plans include church, teaching martial arts class, more reading, yard work, and beer. All in all a good weekend.
This week I plan to finish up the next issue of
Calliope Nerve so I can begin work on the blog and website. And I'm going to see if any local bookstores are hiring part time.
Found this on-line:
"I love the friends I have gathered together here on this thin raft." -- Jim Morrison which I think I'll use as the opening to my next per-zine.
And my daughter Marinda believes I know the words to every song ever, even the sucky ones. :) Another one of my useless talents. But I have to admit, I love
Trivial Pursuit and
Jeopardy! because sometimes, damn it, I need to feel like a Mental Giant.
Giving others
brain envy raises self esteem. It's true. It's in the
Bible and
Weekly World News: all the news that's fit to print.
