here
So here I am
and there you are.

I feel like I've known you a long time
and I've never seen you

your friends seem cool
diverse and quirky with just the right mix of
common ground.

As you grow older, I sense your sense of disillusionment
and join you in said sense.

When you're lost on your home turf
I'm lost, too, and we are in sync at last.

But, you're just on paper
and I, the real deal, can only learn from your pages.

I'm extremely busy right now, so not much to blog about. I'll run down the list:

1) financial aid - I'm broke, and can't get a student loan, so I'm applying for grants and scholarships and all kinds of fun crap. The problem is that they are all due tomorrow - how fun is THAT?!?!

2) I have to read 60 pages of Hamlet today, and then write a 1 page paper about it. This was in addition to the 5 page paper I wrote this morning about how August Wilson's plays transcend race instead of focusing on it specifically. I have 5 books, 3 of which I used as sources.

3) Minibar posters - I still have to make a hiring poster, but need to get approval on the posters for the windows. Tomorrow, I will be finalizing some "Indulge Sundays" ads, and then going to the school to print the posters.

4) Poetry and Music - I realize that I need to get the poetry book and music project done in less than 4 weeks now. Ummmm... yea, stressful! The above poem is about Blight, from Dybek's Coast of Chicago. I've written one about Wilson, Bukowski and now Dybek... I need to do one about Hamlet, and then a Trochaic poem, followed by an Iambic poem (yea, I'm just as lost on those as you are).

5) Condo stuff. I need to start looking in the next couple of weeks - I also need to get pre-approved - EEK! Not fun, but it has to get done... I'm tired of moving and shit.

So, as you can see, I am once again busy as all live F%$*! I'll post when I can, otherwise, just leave a comment and I can respond to those.

Later bitches!
