Back from Seattle...

Seattle was fun. Our family (as I suppose all families of graduating peops) does the endlessly long photographic session. At least it's good humor and the subject of which we can point and laugh at. That person's Andrew in these.



Phtbtbtbt....

Okay. Hmmm... what else do we have here. You realize that I have over 4500 pictures in my computer. I'll put up another neat on from Seattle:

Well THAT's not working. Sorry, no Seattle for you!

There's got to be more to talk about. I guess most people as "what am I doing now?" As a general rule I HATE this question (largely because the answer is nothing at all) but I certainly understand the inquisition and do appreciate the interest. But, like I said, mostly I'm doing nothing at all.

Most of the time I answer that I'm writing. While it's true, there are two problems with this. First, people want to know what your writing. People don't realize how long it takes to explain this... and I don't particularly like to talk about it. Secondly, however, is that I don't particularly like writing and nobody really believes that I'm doing it anyway. I don't know. The time between the beginning of that paragraph and and end of that paragraph was about 3 1/2 hours.

Sen. Kennedy and his Family

Today we learned that Senator Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with a glioma. Unquestionably, this is one of the hardest times both he and his family will go through. I wish them all the courage and strength to get their feet on the ground in a time when their doctors are telling them he's up for "radiation and chemotherapy." I can't image having to get that news and having to deal with the relentless media outside the hospital.

Sen. Kennedy, may your strength and endurance carry you through all of this.

6502 items

I have 6502 items... yes 20.6 endless days of music on my computer that I haven't even opened yet! That's unbelievable. Given that everyday I sit at my computer and EVERYDAY listen to several songs... I should be more than a quarter of the way through them.

Probably a reasonable question from you is... what the heck am I doing with so many songs that I haven't listened to. "Handling the problem" you say "is as easy as pressing the '=' button. It's just to the right one step." You've always been kindof strange like that. I continuously listen to the unlistened to music because it's in unlistened to music that you find the greatest surprises. Erin McKeowen, Feist, Nancy Sinatra... all of these I found because I left them in the unlistened to music.

The potential is there. All that I have to do is look. "The Left Banke," here I come.
