– YESTERDAY – Mondays are such a blue of business and activity that it seems to transcend being a “good” or “bad” day. I’m always left with food for thought, and I’m always a little too tired to consume it.

Note: Connor Coyne is unable to post to his blog today. He is sick with a cold. He has deputized me, his good friend from New School, Antique Olive, to post in his stead (bestowing upon me all privileges thereupon, including, among other things, his username and password — I’ll never tell, so don’t ask.)

– LAST COUPLE DAYS – The day before yesterday was particularly strange… I’d stayed up until 4 AM (for about the third night in a row) finishing Tristram Shandy. I succeeded, but was sufficiently zombified the next day to the extent that caffeine was of limited use.

replied Lorenzo; ‘You shall find, that in your favourable opinion of me you were not deceived. Yet I hope, that the reasons now in my power to allege, will persuade you to withdraw a request, which I cannot obey without infinite reluctance.’

– Weather! Weather!
– WEATHER – It is cold and clear out today.
– FEBRUARY – Is snack food month.

END OF POST.

Laurence Sterne

This is a beautiful book. So read it!

I want to amend, slightly, my fourth impression; it has evolved. I should have figured it out in the last post, but I’ve got such an aversion at this point to any sentence that begins “This book is about language,” that I earnestly strove to remove the expression for a book that had engendered in me the most penitent respect.

– OH, HYPNOS! – I did finish Tristram Shandy last night, and am not far behind this week. But I am that deep-down bones tired… the kind that I cannot forget for even a moment, and coffee hasn’t been helping so far.

You can check out the good news here.

I’ve been hoping for something along these lines for a long time. It’s only half of the equation, (the other half being to design a diverse array of marketable vehicles) and GM will have to solve the whole thing in order to get back on track.

– YESTERDAY – Worked worked worked. Looked for public domain photos that I wasn’t finding. Then I barely made a lecture by Joyce Carol Oates in which she delivered a parable on why one shouldn’t shop Uptown, and went on to give some very compelling answers to questions about her past and technique.

Tom zapped me on this, so here goes.
