When is it time to trim my mustache?

When the morning smoothie drips
onto my clean work shirt.

When is it time to change into a new work shirt?

When it is clear I will not be
able to stay in my cube all day.

How many of the times?

A lot of times I find that I have to think I'm not gonna find something before I can actually find it.

"Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways." - Stephen Vincent Benét

Here is what I have

See, hear, feel, smell, taste
wonder, understand
and to laugh.

A view from a far off shore.

At one point we were all speaking
Portuguese (I was just repeating phonetically!)
laughing and talking, holding each other with our
eyes.

The tyranny of the remembering self.


Even thinking of the future
in terms of what will be remembered.

July 15th, 2012

Twenty eight times he
has spun around the sun.
That's the last of this that rhymes.
Happiness, adventure and sadness
 as he makes his
own way in this space time.
I get to experience Than tides
without which my inter-tidal zone
would not be the same.

Here is the danger

In the rat race, working because I like to work,

and taking a step back to look

at what it might be about

and being hit between the

eyes and not knowing where

to fall.

 July 6th, 2012 trash messages.

Weird 1 - trash hasn't been getting emptied at work this week.
Weird 2 - someone put out my trash and took the barrel and recycle bin back in at the apartment without me seeing who.
