stone against skin
August 18th: between the moon and you
she's talking in her sleep
—counting crows, anna begins
it's keeping me awake
and anna begins to toss and turn
and every word is nonsense but I understand
and oh lord i'm not ready for this sort of thing
her kindness bangs a gong
it's moving me along
and anna begins to fade away
Dream:
And I don't remember if I managed to give her a spanking, but I do remember someone completing the Monty Python quote. "...and then the oral sex!"
It was really sort of disturbing. Jessica would probably think it was funny.
It was at Mike and Ivana's house that someone asked me if I thought Jessica was a good mother. "Of course, i think she's a good mother, but she needs a spanking!" Then Jessica was there, and she was running up the stairs, pausing to wiggle her butt at me, giggling and saying, "I need a spanking! A spanking!"
Reality:
It's been a week, more or less. i've been on vacation. I had a good time, even if I didn't leave the county.*****
Something is making a bunch of links go to default.htm. This is making me not happy. *grrrr*

I was walking in my neighborhood yesterday and thinking about how hard it's going to be to leave when I do. all of the neighborhood cats know me, and they all run up to me when i walk down the street, looking for their lovins. There's Quiltcat, Nosestripe, Mommacat, Luka, Creampuff, Harley, Squeak, Orangina, Tux... I love all of these cats, because there's just something about a cat that's happy to see you, no matter whether you belong to it or not. Mommacat, Harley, and Squeak were waiting for me on the front porch when got home yesterday--Mommacat is either very pregnant or has been gaining a lot of weight.
There's just something about this neighborhood. Everyone's very friendly, we're all interested in each others' animals, and you get to know people through their dogs or cats or whatever they have. It's fun to go to the park evenings and play with the Border Collie Brigade, which is my name for the group of five or six Border Collies who live in the neighborhood and play together at the park. They'll herd anything, including humans.

No, i didn't get Crab set up this weekend. i'm still working on it. Sysadminning is a headache, especially in the beginning. But i'm slowly starting to get the hang of it.

The Body Shop is discontinuing my very favorite cosmetic ever--the Amethyst Lipstain. This was the perfect lipstick-like-thing ever, because it wasn't heavy at all, didn't get all over everything, and was a beautiful dark color on me. I'm going through a very 'femme' period, and right now the disappearance of something i knew looked good on me is unexpectedly frustrating.
In the grand scheme of things, it's not all that important. But it's still the sort of thing that I like to stomp around about.

I'm having difficulty today getting ahold of anyone I need to talk to. it's only the one person, but she's not at her desk and hasn't been there all day, as far as I can tell.

wrap her up in a package of lies
send her off to a coconut island
i am not worried
i am not overly concerned
with the status of my emotions
"oh" she says, "you're changing."
we're always changing
It does not bother me
to say this isn't love
'cause if you don't want to talk about it
it isn't love
and I guess i'm gonna have to live with that
but i'm sure there's something in a shade of grey
or something in between
and I can always change my name if that's what you meananna begins is the story of Anne and Stavia. not the story of lovers but the story of twins.

answer the question: if we are all facets of the unknowable divine, how can we ever manage to translate the language of heartbeats into something that can be written down?
