Dear Oprah,

It is not sad that your show is ending, because you are getting your OWN network. Give it a rest, shut the hell up and go away.

Cordially,
Charlie Donovan


P.S. I really enjoyed your interview with JK Rowling.

004 [then we take berlin]

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
First I burned the roof of my mouth pretty badly on cocoa (not even alcoholic, dammit!), then Boo scratched me hard and opened a vein. It's not very fun, spending New Years Day in the hospital.

I'm not having such a good new year so far, guys. Hold me.

ATTENTION ONE AND ALL!

My gift to you all is that I will be working on Christmas Eve - 8 AM to 5 PM - and all computer diagnostics will be free of charge! So if you're having computer issues, bring 'em all in and I'll help you.

It's not much, but it's free!

002 [i'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall]

I was in high school in Boston when the news was announced that John Lennon had been shot and killed. Everyone always talks about how much of a hero and an inspiration he was for them. For me, he was a great musician but not one I'd followed as much as I'd followed the others. I'd always preferred Paul. But that didn't make the news any less sad, and that's why I really do remember the instant, locked forever in time, when the world lost him. It's hard not to remember something big like that.

And now, thirty years later, I realize that I am now older than John Lennon ever got to be. And that makes me sadder than I was as a kid. I haven't even done as much with my life as he did in his twenties. Who knows what he would've accomplished had that jerk not decided to kill him?

[001] the bottom of the bottomless blue

It's hard to type with a cat on your laptop. I've had to retype practically this whole entry. She's been following me around everywhere the past few days. I don't know what it is. Maybe she's just cold. She always likes me better when she's cold. She's still a California girl. (I wish they all could be.)

When I was out shopping today, I ran into a mannequin and apologized, and the cashier laughed at me. I swear, those things are getting far too realistic. Also, they creep me out on those Old Navy commercials.

I'm in a weird mood tonight. I guess I should put that as my mood.

asakkkkkkkk;'

Thank you, Boo.

Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get, but if you work really hard, and you're kind, amazing things will happen. )
