Smoking in Space
It felt so good to be on a starship again, even if I was just visiting. My friend Ryan Ferko had received a posting aboard and I was hitching a ride to someplace close by.
Not seeing Ryan for a long time, we had some drinks and a conversation while he showed me around the living decks. Most of the crew were at their stations, leaving the hallways empty.
The ship was small, only 4 decks and long enough for me to see end to end from the centre of the corridor. Out the window, I watched old school desk chairs floating in space, and the glow of planets further beyond.
When I got to my room, Ryan had to go. He lit his cigarette and climbed down a latter towards the engine room.

Tatum She-Ra Hishmeh
I loved her, but she r-e-a-l-l-y hated me.
Tatum passed away today, Monday May 9, 2011, in the presence of loving family. She enjoyed good company, being brushed and eating treats. Although known to have a cloudy disposition at times, she brought love and joy to the hearts of those who looked her in the face. She was a classic beauty and will be deeply missed.

For the third time in it's 4 years, my computer is spending the night at the Apple Store. At least I backed up this time! Pray.

instigate then ignore
In a theatre bigger than I've ever seen, stage right on the balcony my sister and I sat in the audience. The lights went down and we were in New York watching a Broadway production of Rent.
When the overture began, two blonde women who sat beside us kept talking over the instruments. I found it quite disturbing so leaned over said, "Could you take your conversation outside?"
They glared at me, sharp noses in the darkened theatre, then turned to resume their conversation.
I was annoyed, angered really, so I looked for an immediate target for retaliation. Her purse sat on the ground between us so I picked it up and, dropped it off the balcony.
When they wouldn't stop talking I decided to focus on the show, but it turned into dancing with the stars and I woke up.
