– WEEKEND – Mel from Salisbury came over on Friday night and we stayed up for awhile and talked. I hadn’t seen her since summer 2003 when Jess and I rendezvoused (sp?) with her in Toledo of all places.
– On Saturday we went out to eat at the solar powered Habana Cafe on Fulton Street, where I also ran into Michelle from Facts on File, and her family.

– YESTERDAY – I didn’t get a whole lot accomplished. For those of you reading the zombie novel, remember, you have to let me know if you want me to send you chapter two.

– TODAY – I only got four hours of sleep last night, so I’m in an ornery mood.

In theory, I don’t work on Thursday so I can get a bunch of writing done. But I consistantly get so depressed sitting alone in my apartment all day that I can rarely concentrate enough to be useful. Today is a very good example of this.

Paragraph 3, Sentence 4:

Kant’s scrupulous system would soon be invoked to justify a range of claims that artists could articulate dynamic energies of spirit which cannot be rendered within any mode of representation committed to appearances.

– YESTERDAY – Work went well, though I got soaked both coming and going. On the way back I stopped off at Barnes and Noble to do a little research for my next series of music purchases. For a month at least I’ll be focusing on Hip Hop.

Granted, its odds were never that great, even in this senate and political climate.
Still, my teeth have been clenched waiting for unpleasant surprised. Between this vote and the Tigers lead over the White Sox dependent on this weeks series against the White Sox, it looked like it could be a very unfortunate week.

Paragraph 3, Sentence 3:

Once such limits are cogently established, it becomes feasible to explore alternative accounts of mental powers capable of preserving the authority of philosophy for many of the values sustained by religious thought.

– YESTERDAY – For some reason, I was utterly exhausted when I got home from work. I beat Final Fantasy II (starting at the last save point near the Crystal Palace) and took a nap. Jess and I had gnocchi and salad for dinner (see was of greater use in putting this together than I was… I poured the drinks and did some of the dishes) and we watched Wallace and Grommit, the Curse of the Were-Rabbit.

I’m feeling too drained at the moment to offer up any juicy bits of artistic flare and aesthetic diagnoses. I’m laden (leaden?) with early summer exhaustion.
