dreaming of phone calls
now playing: bob seger, "fire lake"
didn't even touch that PC that i was supposed to have built in 4 hours yesterday.
didn't even touch it.
today, however, i went from a pile of parts to a finished machine humming quietly away under my bench with the OS and an assload of software installed in under 3 hours.
and this wasn't a quickie job, either. all the internal cables are run properly, tie-wrapped into place very neatly. it's a damn showpiece, i tell ya. looks good in there. i shoulda used a plexiglass case for this one. (it really is that nice)
i done good.
anyway, startin' to get a little hungry - think i'm gonna try to grab something for lunch, even though i'm leaving early today to go to jayda's basketball game...i could possibly wait, but i dunno if i will or not...
had a veerrrrrry weird dream last night, after blake went home...i dreamed that i got a call from an old philly acquaintance of mine, ronny crawford (which outlines from the outset just how outlandish this is - ronny lives in sf,ca now, and plays in lisa loeb's band). anyway, ronny says that he has a "bus gig" (tour) for me, if i'm interested...but it turns out that it's a reunion of seventies stalwarts england dan and john ford coley.
i'm thinking that if i go home anytime soon and there's a message from ronny on my machine, i may have to think twice about returning the call....
(actually, i liked their music...but i don't know if i liked it enough to play it to a field full of lawn chairs at the bloomsburg fair. that's all i'm sayin' here.)
