dancing barefoot when hearts go astray.

it's quiet. it's loud. thunder and lightning are about. i'm quasi-hungry. besides all that, i haven't fallen prey to the ravages of the bird flu. today's a real test: i had some fried chicken from the indian stall opposite my house. if i get the symptoms in 2 days, someone's going to get a big hurting.

yesterday's thunderstorm didn't stop my father from using logic and pulling out all the wires from the modem. however, i think he's misinformed when he assumes that turning the monitor off leads to the pc being turned off. no matter.

and on a side note, the hp deskjet 400 that's graced my life for 7 years is starting to show its age. i broke the metal tab that's meant to hold the cartridge, but i somehow managed to beat the system and connect it back on. it works for now. i was wrestling with the printer for 10 minutes. and let's not get started about the price of a cartridge for a ancient printer. unfair.

as the world turns, all i can think about is steak. well done. with A1 sauce. and mashed potatoes.

flawless. beautiful. so far away.

oh baby.

oh baby.

oh baby.
