Spring Semester Ends - Spring Rolls DIE!!

Aaah.. went to work and stayed until 5, because that's when grade changes ended. Not so many requests this year.

Headed home and the wife was out, so I stopped at the Thai place and got their super-burny chicken rice.  Grabbed a beer and headed home.

Wife had been home (determined by phone call) just before I got there and had left the AC on which is brilliant. Ate the food, have sipped some of the beer, may just nap.

The last two days were the IFC Colloquium, which was brilliant, but far away and a lot of time. On the positive side I am now a $500 an event speaker, which will totally disappear when I return to the Empire.^^

This weekend is for reading and editing.... how sweet is that?

More Rabid Doggerel


I doubt my eyes and become oblivious;
Ignore my ears, elude the obvious ;
Use both hands to grasp the tenuous ;
And model myself on the truly ridiculous

I love the way things really aren’t,
And how they can never be,
I enumerate things that just don’t count,
And look for things that I can’t see

I use pointed logic to make no sense;
Point my path towards the deadest ends;
Adopt darkest foes as dearest friends;
Wear the false gravity foolishness lends
I love the way things really aren’t,
And how they can never be.
I enumerate things that just don’t count,
And look for things that we can’t see

My bundle’s my burden, my safety my strife;
I embrace the wide world with a smile and knife;
In a bower take nonsense to be my sweet wife;
Which makes perfect sense when the sentence is life
I love the way things really aren’t
And how they can never be
I enumerate things that just don’t count
And look for things that we can’t see
