Snippitts of Illusions

still cloudy.
it's one of those cloudy days where they appear to be a dirty white in the sky.
not hanging heavy, just hanging.
the weekend was utterly uneventful.
the last few weeks i've just been shutting off on the weekends.
didn't even leave the house really, except to grab some need supplies (milk and bread), and to get a replacement bulb for my brake light.
a total of about fourty minutes all told (the brake light was changed in the parking lot of checker, where all brake lights should be changed).
boring? yes.
dull? yes.
completely lacking in social life?
you betcha.
oh well.
i feel a little bad.
i was supposed to get together with some folks last night, but never recieved a call.
oh well, i'll see them as some point this week.
i did get a little reading in.
and a little writing in.
and a whole bunch of wasted time playing video games.
can't put my finger on it, i've got completely and utterly retro in my video game habits.
i've only turned my xbox on this last month to watch movies, that's it.
however i've spent hours and hours this last month playing roms on my laptop.
16bit roms even.
i want to say i feel a little guilty about it, but i don't.
so what.
i should have worked on lines for "unwrap your candy".
i should have worked on dialect for macbeth.
i should have written more, gone into work, and found some way to socialize beyond chatting online to tiny, rossflamebearer and my niece.
but i didn't, and so what.

nick, don't sweat it man, just keep me posted on dates for the show you do in the second half of the year, i'll make my best efforts to get down there... and hey after the 10th of December, i have evenings free, we should make a plan to get together for a beer or something. i need to get out of this valley, and as i won't be making any trips to good ol' moms until christmas time, jaunting down to the city sometime in december for a pint with an old friend is just what i need.

as for everyone else.... well... no one but erica and nick posted over the weekend so... erica, like the resume site. it's cool, and, i've been loving all the pictures you've been posting, they're fab.
the last pic taken of me i think is the one that you have posted on bitchcake, (not including production stills, and xrays), though i might be wrong on that... no wait, they took a pic of me at work with the webcam....

anyway, keep your drawers dry, and your underwear too.
