Meet My Mother
Mood:  caffeinated
Now Playing: a nice little drive through the projects
Ordinarily I don't go online on the weekends, but I thought I should post this right away.
Last night, on our way back from the dollar store, my mother and I are in the car making a left turn off of Mill Rd. I look out the window and I see a pair of vintage adidas hanging precariously from a telephone wire. Upon further inspection, I notice several pairs of shoes hanging from the same wire, and I know that I'm half-way home. We had to drive through the projects to get to our house, the massive buildings and high-wire-shoes were a dead give away. Then my mom says, "There's a really pretty house right around here, wanna see it?"
I reply, "Sure." The sun begins to set, painting the dingy grey & maroon buildings an orange hue. So my mother makes another left turn, right in the heart of the projects.
"Seriously, there's a really pretty loadstone house around here, it's the only house around...it's a house in the middle of the projects," she says. The sun is almost completely set at this point. And, for the next twenty minutes, my mother takes me on a wild goose chase for her "phantom loadstone house in the projects that's really pretty".
Parents...I tell ya.

Now Playing: Day 2
So far, so good...except for my bank account...I think I may be overdrawn. Which kinda sucks.

First Blog Ever...
Mood:  caffeinated
Now Playing: The Day GoodFeathers Thoughts Came to an End...
Today, I logged onto geocities, as I usually do at the middle of the month. Unfortunately, "today" started yesterday. For some reason I was unable to access geocities' PageBuilder, rendering my editing routine useless. So, I sucked it up, realizing after seven hours that this was a problem I could not solve on my own, and I asked for help. The good people at Yahoo!, bless them, have absolutely no idea what they're doing. I was sleep-deprived, my cigarette supply was getting low, and my coffee cup was dangerously empty. Putting these three things together, I decided to pick up where I left off in the morning. Morning came at the ungodly hour of 6 a.m.. Yeesh! I sat down, and got back to work, trying to find a way to fix the problem. I failed. Thus, I moved the whole works to tripod, we'll see how it works out. I'll keep you posted.
