You miss it when it's gone. Bad deadline this week. Very labor-intensive and my fucked-up sleeping pattern was even more inhuman.

Jesus. For the first time in 72 hours, I actually feel normal.

When I went to see Plant & Page in 1994 - they had the Egyptian musicians and string sections with them - they did a version of "In the Evening" which ranks as one of the finest and most beautiful things I have ever witnessed.

No one expects the Spanish Inquisition?

And it's all true! "My Life as an RTT."

Yeah, I can't be too buzzed because it makes it hard to type, but two cocktails depresses the inhibitions just enough so I come up with something a doink or two edgier and original.

I am wearing red fleece New Mexico Lobos pants. It is my brother-in-law's 30th birthday today. I am watching the president of Iran being interviewed. Anderson Cooper seems a bit intimidated.

By state law, they are referred to Native American Summers now. And we do usually get a good one. Since this has been a cool summer, though, I wonder if we will this year. I am already starting to compile my long underwear.

I write better leads with a buzz on.

Short fuckin' fall in Kansas City, huh?

Think Girardi will get the axe?

Two people who are less the yoga type than I am have raved about it, but I'm not ready to pull the trigger yet. Unless I can find a yoga teacher who'll let me play '80s metal during the session.

"It's like space, man."

Did she apply to Ulster Publishing?

Both Ortiz and Howard have had great years, but I think the MVP should go to a player who contributed to their team making the postseason. (Howard's still got a shot as the Phils are right in there still.)

Listen for a loud bang or a sound like a piece of furniture dropping.

That was the Lord intervening so you wouldn't have to work at that newspaper.

I turned down a job once because of a drug test. There's no reason on God's green Earth that copy editors need to take drug tests.

Well, it's better than him getting completely shelled, but I did notice an overly positive spin was being put upon last night's performance.

I like Rush in measured doses. Saw them in 1990 - they were one of the tightest bands I've ever seen in my life. (INXS was too; not my favorites, but you have to respect musicianship on that level.)

"The Wizzinator!"

Now that I have the Netflix, I gotta get caught up with that show. The last episode I saw was the one just before the season finale of season one.

That's deeply poetic.

The continent of Atlantis was an island which lay before the great flood in the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean. So great an area of land, that from her western shores those beautiful sailors journeyed to the South and the North Americas with ease, in their ships with painted sails. To the East Africa was a neighbour, across a short strait of sea miles. The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of The Atlantian culture. The antediluvian kings colonised the world All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis. Knowing her fate, Atlanti

I'm just acclimating myself for my next next career - Nosferatu.
