I’m taking a few days absence from public internet forums and communites to mourn the lapse of logic, reason, and fact-based worldview. If you want to talk to me, I’m still checking email and on IM.

The slience starts now.

An interesting common Kerry Criticism I hear is that he “speaks vaguely and doesn’t say anything.” (???)

Interesting in the fashion that I don’t get that at all. It almost to me seems a purposeful misunderstanding based on personal issues.

So, I’d love some examples (from those who view our next President in this way)

Tell me some of these ambiguities, please.

HOWEVER, if they are in the way of these criticisms:

1. Kerry says life begins at conception
2. Kerry is pro-choice

Or:

1. Kerry says he won’t give anyone else a ‘Veto” on US hegemony
2. He wants to pass a “global test”

and you think these are vague or conflictory (and an example of the reported ambiguity), NEVER MIND. I understand that criticism all too well. I’d continue in a arguemnt of it, but I wouldn’t want to build any straw men (even if they are a perfect likeness). Fucking dualistic thinkers.

I’m having the hardes time with this fucking external array. Things like this really piss me off. It’s simple. Dead-easy crap. Why the fuck is the adapter card fucking with me? 4 drives, all set up properly. terminated properly, etc. It’s so frustrating in its uncomplexity. Fucking SCSI.

Well, in other news, tonight we’re headed to the DNC party at the Convention Center. I’m confident on a Kerry mini-landslide (hoping for a major landslide). So there will be plenty of drinking in celebration. Oh, and if by some manner the blow-monkey dry drunk retard and his death-cult war profiteers manage to steal another election, at least I’ll be inebriated.

I think I’m getting sick – the back of my throat is scratchy — I think there’s some rogue bacteria back there causing havoc.

I was typing “Monday” and instead typed “Monkey.”

I wish it were Monkey instead of Monday.

fun weekend, not enough time now to update – perhaps after LAB.

In the ULTRAZLAZY category, read ‘s update for the weekend update and what we did.

One Day Left!

go KERRY!

No more Denny’s Mini-burgers for me.

I woke up bloated and hang-over like withough ANY of the fun pre-hangover activites, save a saltfest at Denny’s in the wee hours last night.

Ugh. Still woosy and weasy and other such terms.

Yay for Friday.

Yay for hopeful impeding implosion of the Criminal Bush/Cheney Adminsitration/Syndicate.

Yay for cold, windy, rainy weather.

Yay for coffee and tea.

Yay for me.

A new Cliff Yablonski.

There’s a new JeffK, I want a new Cliff Yablonski.

I can see the runway lights!

Only 2 more days of work/haunt/school — after that it goes to only Haunt on the weekend – 2 days of that, then it’s only work/school on the weekdays.

I don’t know what I’ll do with my new free time!

Yes I do. There will be cleaning, house nesting: bookshelf building, cooking, baking – and of course relaxing.

So what does everyone else do to nest at home?

Many of us have noticed the lack-lustre job that maintenance at the Happiest Place on Earth has done – the chipped paint, peeling fabric, etc.

They are Fixing it.

…The Mouse House is also restoring some more subtle touches, after years of neglect and cost-cutting left “the happiest place on earth” looking dilapidated in the eyes of many regular visitors.

“There was visibly fading paint, visibly peeling paint, rust,” says Koenig. “It was sort of depressing.”

Now the horses leading carriages down Main Street USA will get their name tags back. (All of the park’s “cast members” or employees wear name badges.)

Cast members’ costumes will better match specific areas of the park, too. Workers in New Orleans Square will get colorful costumes more reflective of the Crescent City’s jazz heritage, for example. …

I need a classic Disneyland now more than ever.

Oh, And I need ELF. I can’t wait for Christmas.

Whiny whine whine.

Man, what a freaking whiner.

I long for a weekend to do house projects. There is so much to do, and so little time. I grossly under-estimated the effect that going to school, working full time, and volunteering would do to me.

The problem, I suppose, is that I am enjoying everything to a degree. Work is entertaining and challenging, School is quite successful, and I love the group at the haunt.

I need a live-in maid or servant boy. I think that is the solution. Who wants to move in and in leiu of rent be a cook/cleaner/secretary/organizer/personal assistant?

Oh, and the main feeling I’m having is that all I do all day long is support. support. fix. support. fix. fix. find solution. support. fulfill responsibility. take responsibility. support.

I’m so tired of that, I really want to rebel and be completely irresponsible and force others to support me (which is my negatvie tendancy to revolt/defend). I’m tired of being the go-to-guy and the “one who figures it out.”

Whether or not these feelings are rational or realistic or “fair” is really beside the point, since it doesn’t change how I’m feeling. Just so tired of answering questions and explaining and coordinating. (which I am sure is tied to my fatigue and chaotic schedule)

Anyway, with more time after Hallowe’en, I can recharge the reserves and continue.

Maybe I should take up meditation? I need to find a center – typically that center has been the homestead – with no time to keep that center organized and comfortable, it throws me all askew. If I had a secondary center that would help. Work has been fulfilling that slight secondary center, but I don’t want to develop it as such. I need to be my own primary center.

Man, I’m rambling on and on. Anyway.

Perservere, my sneeples.

Feeling much better today and in better control.

No more runs of Haunt for me, I’m afraid. I think I’ll only be able to do the weekend here at the end.

In other news, I have no other news. (except to say that I have a nice copy of “Evil Genius” just itching to be played).
