blah...i'm afraid i've eaten dinner too late, and cannot digest it properly. i've got a headache now. i've just dealt with a flurry of phone calls and then emails, which has taken me away from writing. now i'll head back to it full force.

i'm still interested in the news, tho there's not much "new" about it in the last couple of days. it was sweet [dude, sweet] for awhile after the attack, with many people offering insights and novel viewpoints, but now we've seemed to have gone back to endlessly repeating that same few news stories again and again. surely we have not analyzed this thoroughly yet, have we?

if the news were educational, like it was two weeks ago, then I wouldn't mind my desire to watch it. But it's simply repetitive, so I feel I am wasting time, and not getting stuff done that I should, if I take the time to watch, and only glean one small new bit of "news."

the kicker is that I can watch all this stuff from my desktop, so even working on the computer (my main gig) is being distracted!!!

not to mention this blog thing...

i shall now turn of all broadcast media, and focus solely on the immediate task of writing a book!

right in the middle of "this old house" and just as they were getting ready to install an "egress" window into a newly renovated bedroom, since the small window currently there would not be grand-fathered in under local building code, and right before---here comes the news!!!

this stuff is so carefully chereographed by < someone >:

it seems that no two world leaders schedule their speeches for exactly the same time...how amazing...even enemies understand the importance of taking their proper ques.

i fell back asleep and woke up to tony blair...then suddenly fell back asleep again! it's been a series of late nights...

back to writing (isn't that what i'm doing?!)
