love poetic tech work

Stranger than the stranger

So I found out this morning that
swing dancing is on Tuesday nights.
Now I have to wait a week, but at least
it doesn’t conflict with the poetry readings anymore.
The reading last night went swimmingly;
about 10 people read, including myself,
and every reader was worth listening to.
It’s good to remember that there are
other people out there, writing poetry; doing this thing.
Sometimes I forget.

I got a G-mail account today, which makes me happy
because stupid AOL bought Mailblocks, and
I figure it’s only a matter of time before they ruin it.
What with Google owning both Blogger and G-mail,
I’m now completely dependant on them
for my two biggest internet addictions.
Go go gadget Google.

To Emily: I’m sorry about mixed messages
and vapid arguments. I’d really like us to
interact positively. I’ll wait to hear from you.

In the employment world, a temporary position
opened here at St Martin’s in the Advancement Office
(I don’t know what that is, but okay), doing data
verification 20 hours a week. It’s a job that lasts
4-6 weeks and they’ve pretty much already hired me
(just need to work out the schedule).

That should help the old pocket-book for a pinch.
