Tuesday, September 16, 1997 -- Moving day
The chips begin to settle.		I found my new cube and moved my two boxes of personal and/or business stuff into new space. I'm pretty sure I lost my analog line, and, anyway, my cube is situated so that anyone who enters this office can read the screen. I might be able to move it, but why bother? I need the incentive to work anyway. Gary caught up with me this morning, to talk to me about the St.Louis project. As I went over the paperwork, I realized that this friday was the 'programming' deadline, and that we were supposed to have code up there, with them, on october 13. Since that's so close to now, the project is all mine again. This time, without the extended stay in St.Louis. Still, though, I look forward to the next thing. All the people who used to be in this office, are now down in mine. I've made several trips to the net machine, just to check email. I guess I'm just going to have to wean myself off of daytime-internet. I've gotten so much work done in the past couple of days, maybe it's not really a bad thing. It's been awhile since I was happy with a day's worth of work, and I was today. Azura went grocery shopping today, and bought Kapua and Maggie a kitty toy. It was this plastic circle/tube with a ball inside it. Kapua can whack it back and forth, and it goes in the circle. He played with it for hours last night. We hadn't finished watching our movies, so I asked Azura which one she wanted to see. I should have guessed, so we watched "Army of Darkness". I knew I was in trouble when I saw it was a Dino de Larentis production. I'll never know how deLarentis got such good books. Books that would have been wonderful movies, and then screwed them up royally. The only movie of his I really liked was Firestarter. It's effects were typical de Larentis effects, but they followed the story faithfully, and that made a real difference. Yes, I know he made the movie "Dune". No, I didn't think it was great. The novel Dune is big and complex, I don't really know how they expected to make it into a comprehensible 2hour long movie. I'm not really sure that they did. Anyway, I can sum Army of Darkness up in one sentence: The three stooges versus the Legions of the Dead. Ok, so there was only one "Hero", not three, but the comedic level was about the same level as the three stooges. I really hope my pic ("The Clockwork Orange") is better. Tomorrow night, Azura and I are going to the Bisexual Social Group. I had a dream last night, that we went, and met Moose and Squirrel there. It would make things easier if it happened, but my conjectures about Squirrel are just that, conjectures. [Even if I got more fuel for the fire on Sunday] Generic Joe's A Typical Male
