Hey guys, Korova here just lettin' you know I'm still alive... *mumbles* Barely...

Just thought I'd tell ya the only reason I haven't been around is because of school, but it seems it will stay this way for a while. Don't worry, though, I haven't abandoned you lovely people.

In the famous words of Arnold... "I'll be back"

I'll make a quick picture post with a bit of mechanical eye candy before I go though...

Love you guys, and I'm thinkin' of ya!

[Sanctus Dei]

KOROVA!!!! You are missed very much! I expect you'll visit much over spring break though?!


Record cold tomorrow (watch out XNG it's headed your way) -23 to -28 with the wind chill... I'm not looking forward to trying to start my car in the morning. It's -3 now, not too bad but it'll only get worse as the night continues.

It's a nice 64 degrees with 93% percent humidity at the moment...at one in the fucking morning. Good old southern weather. Bleh.

[Sanctus Dei]

At least you can step out doors without a 4 inch thick winter coat and long johns..

Okay I own neither... but it's still ass cold out.

i prefer "cool" weather. So i'd rather be freezing right now.

A cold front just blew in. I walked out of the house dry and about 70ish and now it's wet and 55-60ish.

Tomorrow is going to be nasty. At least were getting a little fucking rain....

[Tall One In Black]

We had a wicked crazy week for weather. Saturday we got 10" of snow. Yesterday it was 60 degrees. Tomorrow the high is predicted to be 33.

Right now, it's like a wind tunnel. Gusts of up to 50 mph. I'm afraid to walk my dog for fear she'll blow away.

korova's truck kicks ass.

I can feel the season coming. Race season. This makes me sad because I am not ready. So much to do, so little money...

bleh.

Today is my Mom's birthday. And I would give most anything to be able to pick up the phone and wish her many happy returns of the day.

The Reverend Doctor Momzilla was the most amazingly beautiful, intelligent, witty, and kind woman I've ever known. She regularly put in 40-, 50-, and 60-hour weeks on behalf of any number of charitable organizations, and never received a paycheck for her efforts. When she became ill with kidney disease, she spearheaded a patient advocacy board.

One of my brother's friends once told me, "Your mom has the power- but she uses it wisely." So true; I was fortunate enough to grow up in a time and place where laissez-faire, unsupervised parenting was the norm. So, we were allowed to make mistakes (and those mistakes occasionally involved gasoline, firecrackers, really excellent homemade blowtorches, and later, shoplifting, reckless driving, booze and weed) and learn from them.

Once a stone-faced Momzilla forces your sorry hungover ass to clean the bathroom of vomit, you WILL think twice about having those "two beers, I swear." Or, in the case of other siblings, who shall remain nameless, appearing before a juvenile court judge.

We are all now fairly productive members of society, with clean records.

We estimate that she confiscated at least a quarter pound of pot from various judgement-impaired children over the years. Eventually, we got her to try the devil weed herself when she was sick (she always kept an open mind), but it just didn't work for her.

However, if you dared to mess with one of her kids, she turned into a tigress. I remember her giving an absolute raft of shit to this mean girl in my hometown, who left me alone foreverafter. She did the same thing with school administrators, coaches, inappropriate boyfriends, and (thank God) emergency room physicians. With an utterly polite, refined, no-nonsense attitude. They always crumbled in the face of her fortitude.

The Power.

And as the years pass, I realize that she was right about damn near everything- especially her advice to take a computer course instead of 'Religions of the Oppressed', and the ever-popular "Don't sleep with him!".

God, I miss her.

Eh, maybe this belongs in Whining.

You put your tribute to your amazing Mom, anywhere you want Sweetie..

Happy Birthday to your Mom.

I know she is proud of the wonderful woman you have become..

*Squeezy Hugs*

[Gnossos]

Thanks, EPS.

And please know that you are one of the few... the proud... the Momzillas.

Your boys are blessed.

That was beautiful Gnossos.... Happy Birthday to your mom.

On the random note:

My tattoo was done today... AND I WANT MORE!

[edible_eye]

happy birthday to your mom, gnossos.

------------------------------------

and on a different note, someone jumped in front of the train i was riding home tonight. i felt the initial bump, followed by the vibrations of his / her body bumbling along beneath the wheels. i didn't see who it was that jumped - only felt the sensation and put the pieces together rather quickly after the fact. when they evacuated us, the rescue workers had trained their flashlights beneath the rail car i was seated in. i doubt there was much of him / her to rescue.

ironic in a sense, i guess that i spent the day in the emergency room taking care of several people who'd come in saying they were suicidal, only to have someone jump in front of the train i was in on the way home. i don't see it as anything special or significant, necessarily since the train was full of people heading home from a night of friday night drinking. someone apparently just decided to call it quits.

anyway, i'm having a beer and getting ready for bed. tomorrow, i'll hit the gym and then the family and i are heading to new jersey for a week end away. i can't wait to sit in the hot tub beneath a 0 degree, star-filled, night sky.

i wish everyone a good weekend, especially those who matter to me here - matter to me in the way someone can come to matter to someone else within the context of this odd, virtual world. you know who you are.

and darkangel - congrats on the tat.

I wish you a Happy Birthday to your mom as well Gnossos.

Darkangel, yay! I can't wait till I get mine!

Edible, that is weird and sad. I hope your weekend is good and see yah posting on monday!

[sensuous0mar]

It was fabulous! It was one of those "I'm picking you up in the middle of the night for a rendezvous" -type things. It was so hot! We drove around all bundled up in the cold cold weather. It was -50 here last night. Yay WI! We parked for a while and talked. He gave me my valentines gift (because we were 200 miles apart on vday) and then we went to his house for a while. It was just nice. I was home by 2:30 AM. Not bad. Last time we did this I wasn't home till 6 in the morning!
