Of nothing much in particular and yet of everything

Hmmmm…quite an evening. Went to The Hungarian Bar as it was Brilliant Hungarian’s bday party. Left early as poor Bambi was…to put it lightly…in pain. But of course, stoically handling said severe pain. Freaking idiot.

Man, I love those people. Should hopefully see them again soon. Swine flu has thus far precluded any visits to the legendary bar and ridiculously witty conversations* and syrupy cold vodka. (Or in this case, gin.) But with CC abandoning us (read ME..sigh…oh how I love being gyroscopically self involved) we will be there again soon.

Bams, well. I have no idea what to say. Perhaps a word like “reconnection” or “hot damn” suffice. But even that fails miserably. That was the quickest dinner I have ever had /grin.

I have to work tomorrow. Which is both good and incredibly meh. 325 325 325…

1. Word of the day: “following distance”

2. Insight of the day: Rules, if made by itself, are remarkably easy to bend, extend and then break like it was never really a rule so much as a guideline.

3. State of the pool: Stirred by an unforseen wind, somewhat choppy but nevertheless crystal.

4. Random thought: Split keyboards are lovely for the wrists but a bitch to get used to again.

5. Awesomest lines: Life is Elsewhere by Milan Kundera

“The opportunity had been irrevocably lost, and Jaromil heard only the feeble sound of water draining from the bathtub into distance sewers; the irretrievability of this marvelous opportunity broke his heart, for he knew that the chance to spend an evening alone in the house with Magda would not come again soon, and that even if it were to occur, the key would long since have been replaced and Magda would have double locked herself in. He lay on his bed in despair. But what made him feel worse than the loss of the opportunity was the dispair he felt at the thought of his timidity, his weakness, his stupidly pounding heart, which had deprived him of his presence of mind and spoiled everything. He felt a violent distaste for himself. “

* Yes, CC was in attendance. As was El the Legend.
