Profligate

Well, hello there. I know, I haven't written in a while but neither have you so there. Anyways, what's new? Cobalt is here, that's what's new. Who/What is Cobalt? All 13.1 inches,2.9 lb and 1920x1080 pixels of spun metal gorgeousness.The generic name is ASUS Zenbook Prime. Did I need this beauty? Probably not direly. But is my life better and more beautiful for it? Yes. Oh, yes.

Anyhoo, the one good thing about this is that I now own a device on which I can type with most of my fingers and which will not make my lap go numb and burn holes in my comforter. => I might actually get back into blogging. Is that necessarily a good thing? For me, and the world at large? One will never know.
And while I am sharing thoughts, here is something I recently wrote

                                               Colors of the Day

Brown. Brown are my eyes that stare out the window,
Gray are the skies up above.
Blue is my mood,
and Black is the rain on the road.

 Green. Green are the leaves on the windswept trees,
Ochre are the ones that floated down.
Orange is the pale glow from the street light and
Gold are the droplets caught in it.

 Purple. Purple are the shadows hurrying in the dark,
Yellow are the doubts in my mind.
But Red is the dawn that hides over the horizon
and White is the hope it holds within.

And so, after some thoughtful reading, to bed.

Metronome

I'm chasing after you in the gathering dusk, you're racing far ahead, fading into the sunset. Can't catch up to you, can't hold on to you, always looking back, wondering when I first lost you. And this sand in the hour glass, it's rushing fast. This river of continuum, it gushes past. The clock unwinds, the moon tugs the tides, while I'm caught in between what was and will be. So I'm letting go, I'm tired of the chase I'll find some peace in this moment's embrace. Just take my hand in yours, let's run to the daybreak and burst into this life, finally awake. Finis

fractious

It's been a good set of days. The week itself was fun, what with hanging out with folks on Wed - and before I forget, here's a shout out to "S" and "Y" for reading/pretending to read by blog and requesting to star in it ;-) - and watching "Up" the next day with the usual gang (awesome movie!). P was flying in on Friday and a few hours before his departure from O, it was decided that we would attempt to hike up Mt.Washington. As usual it was a slightly imbalanced plan. Late Friday night, I set out to pick him up from the hour-away airport. Somehow this turned into a road trip for 3 of my concerned friends. Suffice to say that there were bad jokes a plenty and some rather interesting conversation. Randomness abounds in my life. Anyways, it was around 2 am by the time we crashed and I actually managed to be up by 6.30 am the next morning. By 8.30 we were showered, breakfasted and packed and P was armed with enough stuff to survive a hurricane and live

lynchpin

It happened! The first celebrity sighting in a long long time. Obama and his daughters. They were at my place and I was figuring out their sleeping arrangements along with my brother and sis-in-law. OK, so you must know that this was in my dream. I must say it's one of the wackiest dreams I've ever had. I was stressing out last night on the whole iPhone vs Blackberry Storm before I went to bed and so it follows that early this morning I dreamt that Mr.O and his daughters were visiting me, my bro and my s-i-l. It was funny. There we were, 3 hosts and 3 guests and we had this one room where I was trying to arrange all the beds and sleeping bags so everyone could sleep comfortably. My sister in law was fretting about making sure every one was comfortered and my bro was a little sleepy and grumpy and I just wanted them all to settle down and go to sleep. The biggest problem somehow was where Aliana (that was his younger daughter's name in the dream) would sleep - not sure why.
