went for a walk this morning, felt kinda tight all over from yoga the other nite...
and, i'm about halfway, and i see the lady and her dog coming toward me on the path. she's struggling a bit with the dog, a big black lab, as he's obviously strong. so, as we get to a certain distance, which i kinda think of as "a dogs sphere of influence and protectivity", he starts pulling too hard for this old lady, and she...
wait for it...
she... drops... the... leash.
and this beautiful big black friendly doggy bolts straight for... me.
now i happen to love dogs, and especially black & chocolate labs, but, hey! don't effen drop the leash!!! on a public path, with some big ugly guy walking toward you and your instinctively protective, yet sweet tempered, dog.
so, i held out my arms and yelled come here! and he responded, but i could tell that if i had done something else, he was ready to play that too. he wouldn't let me touch him, but i picked up his leash, and handed it back to the lady...
(who explained that her dog must've thought he knew me to act like that, riiiight)
he's a friendly doggy, he is, really.

hot yoga
i went to yoga class for the first time in over a year, on monday nite.
when i was waiting for the previous class to end, i was surprised and delighted to see my patchouli friend come walking in. she dint see me, and so i just watched as she signed in, walked around the displays a bit, then sat down to wait. she looked mad. after a couple of minutes she noticed me watching her from behind the yoga pants, and dint quite recognize me ( i shaved my head & grew a goatee ). then, as realization dawned in her face, she slowly smiled.
and THAT, my dear droogies, is the MOST BEAUTIFUL sunrise i've seen in a long time.
we talked for a little bit, and her patchouli etched another groove in my brain, and then we each went our separate ways into class, where i proceeded to sweat most of my ass off (came back later when i drank water).
at then end of class, i had the yoga bliss going, and dint see my friend when she left, but it was a beautiful nite, all in all...

bright sunday
another hot, bright, sunday, yay!
and it's hot, baby, H.O.T. - hot!
and i know hot, cuz i've lived here in phoenix, since the day i was born, and i used to walk around barefoot in the summers (ooh, aaah, ooh, aaaaaaaaah, ooh, ooh, ow, aaaaah - is how it sounds, you can picture it in your head if you like). and i was working at a techshop when it was over 120 for a week in july, and all the ACs broke down except the one over the receptionist.
and i like it hot.
ever had sex and you get all slippery from sweat? and your body starts making fartle-noises from all the slipping, sliding, and slapping? ever fall off? man, that is fun!
and then you both lay there, and you don't touch cuz yer both hot, and cuz you both want maximum air-exposure, and you kinda laugh about falling off, and fartling...
ever walk into the grocery store, after driving around in the 110+ heat for awhile with the windows down, and as you stroll into nicely air-conditioned store: boing! your nips get hard? and then, you kinda head straight to the frozen aisle? me too!
and, sometimes, when you go for a slurpee (icee, slushee), and as you take the first really big sip, the frozo-head-ache smacks you in the sinuses... ow, that's a pain, but frought with summer-memories, no? yes!!!
ahh, the joys of summer, on a sunny sunday...
;)
btw, i'm drinking coffee, hot coffee...

eminent domain - wtf?
ahhh, another shining example of corporate-backed gov't in action. somehow i doubt this is good news for "we, the people". isn't greed a sin? and gluttony, that's there too... "best interests" - my ass.
gonna have to "rise up" someday soon, i suppose...
*sigh*

i'll throw in a dollar or two, for that cause...

the monastery - r.i.p.
went to the monastery last nite...
this is their last week, at that location (two others exist), and it was kinda cool / kinda sad. i was meeting a friend, and since she was a little late, i sat and had a bass with some of the folks at the bar, and got the whole story.
i guess this particular location isn't earning alot of money, and with the price of real estate going completely effin nutz here in phoenix, the owners can make a sweet deal on the land.
but i will miss it. i used to go to the "old" monastery off 48th street (by the canal) to play volleyball, get drunk, etc, and when they moved to this location, i followed. continuing the sandball, drinking, meeting interesting people trend.
so, last nite, i thought it would be fun to hang out with my friend there (she plays ball, too, occasionally). but, i didn't expect the melancholy that came upon me, sitting there at the bar with "the regulars", and hearing the small stories of what they had planned now. it's a beautiful thing, sometimes, to just listen to other people talk about their plans...
we left after i faux paux'd my beer all over the table courtside... trying to ward off a stray ball intent on spilling said beer... knuckled it away, then elbowed said almost-full glass in an interesting spill pattern headed for her lap. sometimes the jump-up from the spill does more damage than the actual spill, but we were lucky.
sigh, didn't even play in the sand...

american quotes
always liked thomas jefferson...
and this site of american quotes is pretty interesting, especially the fates of the signers of the declaration...
quotegarden is cool, too.
here are a few quotes that strike me (and for some reason i'm thinking about big money and gynormous bureaocracy today):
"The money powers prey upon the nation in times of peace and conspire against it in times of adversity. It is more despotic than a monarchy, more insolent than autocracy, and more selfish than bureaucracy. It denounces as public enemies, all who question it's methods or throw light upon it's crimes. I have two great enemies, the Southern Army in front of me and the Bankers in the rear. Of the two, the one at my rear is my greatest foe.. corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money powers of the country will endeavor to prolong it's reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until the wealth is aggregated in the hands of a few, and the Republic is destroyed."
- Abraham Lincoln
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."
"A little rebellion now and then is a good thing..."
- Thomas Jefferson
"Say nothing of my religion. It is known to my god and myself alone."

WWBD?
if you could cure cancer, or diabetes, would you?
or, would you hide that knowledge, suppress it until you had figured out how to dilute that cure, so you could manage the disease, without curing it?
if someone came to you with a problem, and you could fix it, would you? or, would get get a bunch of friends together, to study the problem, a committee? and this committee would take on a life of its own, keeping the problem alive, studying it, controlling it, but never actually fixing it?
if you could stop a fight, would you do that?
or, would you sell one of the guys a stick, and after he gets hit, sell the other guy a bigger stick, etc, etc. or maybe you'd just sell tickets?
WWBD?

hey baby hey baby hey
as i strut into the room, no heads turn.
my theme music rising in a funky groove...
i check myself in the mirror and smile,
as i bob my head to the inner beat.
my silent "hey baby hey baby hey" is unacknowledged.
the groove driving my legs, head bobbing, heart pumping, smooth...
i rock, i'm hot, check me out.

simon of space
so, i'm just goofing off, right?
and, i'm clicking around, reading blogs that i enjoy and sipping some herbal tea (don't start with me, i need a donut). AND, i keep going back to a couple of favorites from the column to the right there (--->) BUT, they haven't been updated in a while, and i notice, "hey," i said to myself, "hey self, these folk actually have OTHER blogs", which i hadn't noticed before, cuz sometimes i'm observant, and sometimes i'm NOT... especially if i haven't had my donut, and my stoopid grin is hurting my face.
so, go look at simon of space, and follow the links to his other work... (this is the "the darth side" dood).
now, if jen would only begin anew...

debian & donuts
wil says debian has released a new version. which i mention just becuz i'm a bit tired, and have virtually nothing to write about.
i installed debian linux once, and it had this incredible network install, which still amazes me to this day. sure, the downloading of stuff to your box is pretty fantastic stuff these days, but this was quite a while back. they mailed me a single 3.5" floppy, which i pop'd into my box, and being hooked up the the net, i executed the install, and OH MY GAWD! - things start downloading and my box starts making this incredible I'M EATING THIS UP kinda noise (hard-drives sound like aeroplanes sometimes, and sometimes they sound like other things, sure-sure).
it was an epiphanic moment for me (is that even a word?)...
tired you ask? well, there is something i could mention, as i stayed up until about 3am this morning, and it was fun, but i'm fairly discreet, so that's all i'm gonna say about that... other than i can't get the big, fat, stoopid grin off my face...
hmmm, what else? crystal method was playing at myst last nite, i dint go. the stones (yes, the actual rolling stones!) are coming in november - should i take my kids? i think i should.
there was this video game i played last nite, that is the japanese police force first-person-shooter arcade game, that detects your movements and responds accordingly in the game, and you have to actually squat down, and move or lean to the side, and shoot, and i think i could get into killer shape if i just played that effed up game just once a nite... maybe if i played it once a week? sheee-ittt, my thighs feel like i just played 90 minutes of soccer.
and my face hurts cuz of this stoopid grin...

anyone seen this guy?
and i'm really looking for him, this was something i drew my last year in college, and gave to a friend of mine for a wedding present. Which turned out to be a bad idea, as the last time i saw it, it was hidden behind the door in their den.
(someone told me once, *never* give art as a present, it never evokes the same emotion in the givee as it does in the giver. this was long after i foolishly gave away al).
if you pick it up at a yardsale somewhere in phoenix, send me an email, i'm inclined to get it back...

five kittens!
received the kitten call at 2am this morning, *yawn*
so, i went and woke up the twins, and we raced over to my ex's to witness the miracle of birth, as performed by by our little calico: Kali.
results: 5 hungry, happy little bundles of fluff, wow, they're tiny!
2 tabbys, 2 blacks, and 1 new calico!!
the kids kept commenting on how like fear factor this whole experience was, especially the chowing down on the afterbirth, in between each birth. the little momma is healthy and happy too. instinct is absolutely amazing...
i need a nap.

the Other coffeehaus
okay, i'm sitting in the *other* location of my favorite coffeehaus...
is this cheating?
it basically has the same ambiance, and free wifi, and it's very comfortable. more chairs and couches, less tables-for-two-or-three. all together a nice experience.
today i'm playing dads-taxi-service, a rather-involved real-time game for single-dads on their weekends-with-the-kids. i dropped them off at a birthday-swim-party, and it's on this side of town, so i figure, go to a coffee-shop and surf-the-net, as usual...
(holy hyphenation, batman)
actually it wasn't my weekend, last weekend was mine, but i got a call from my ex, at about 7ish last nite, saying "when are you gonna pick up the twins?".
see, there was a conversation earlier in the week about her wanting to take them camping on one of my weekends, and apparently i missed the part about "oh, and this weekend is yours". typical.
{rant}
see, an all-too-common ritual in my marriage was "didn't you hear me tell you...", which i've always thought was funny, becuz i can't read minds (yet, i figured i would eventually learn how to do that, as i kept getting lots of practice). but, i'm a fairly good listener, using active "uh huhs", "yes, dears", and "what you said, what i heard" techniques as a rule. so, i don't remember tuning anything out... but somehow there were huge amounts of conversation that were occurring betwixt her and i (in some dimension), that i was missing.
my latest theory is that she knows that i will cancel plans, bail out on friends, and give up all kinds of things, just to hang out with my kids, anytime, anywhere, at a moments notice...
{/rant}
oh, just one more thing: match.com sucks.

stiff neck
yup, stiff neck today, played too much FIFA street the past few days.
THL had a couple of fun posts. one about batteries, and one about a roomates parasite. both ultimately make me think of my stiff neck, or times in the past when i've had a stiff neck. maybe all things lead to a stiff neck?
work. should i even mention it? i suppose i won't ever understand the people who require a little extra drama in their lives. things seem to be going smoothly, most of the teams are just hitting their stride, and code is beginning to be produced on a daily basis. it's the beginning of a construction cycle, things are happening, situations are arising, and problems are being solved... suddenly, a senior manager begins to think she needs to find a silver bullet to solve the entire organizations issues. bang, zoom! to the moon... (shaking my head, yes i am).
patchouli. i keep thinking about it. last week, at my friendly neighborhood coffeehaus, a friend came in, and i gave her a hug when we saw each other. all very nice and innocent... anyway, for the rest of the day, all day, at work, i keep smelling patchouli... and i'm getting aroused, cuz i love the smell of that oil. especially since it's all mixed up with memories of sex, and memories of women who wore it, and memories of the smell of the women who wore it...
mmhmmm, patchouli...
heat. phoenix heat. beautiful heat.
i was born here, so it doesn't bother me when it hits 100 (121 is a different matter, entirely). i actually love to drive around with the windows down, middle of the day, hot air blowing and evaporating the sweat off me. my frontal lobes must've melted a bit...

i was born here, so it doesn't bother me when it hits 100 (121 is a different matter, entirely). i actually love to drive around with the windows down, middle of the day, hot air blowing and evaporating the sweat off me. my frontal lobes must've melted a bit...
