The Daily News1 I feel sort of like astronauts must feel when they hit air on re-entry from space.
2 Everything has slowed.
3 Don't get me wrong; it feels like a return to reality after having danced through the cosmos for the past week.
4 Anyway, I digress.
5 Sooooo...Sparky Anderson walks into a bar...
6 And as far as I know, Sparky Nguyen is still torching it up on sound, and doing shows.
7 Who knows?
8 I've been away from the Earth for a few months, and it is really weird trying to get back to a sweet spot.
9 Last night's sunset turned into a pretty good spot, for example.
10 Moving on, Part the First: It seems it isn't just the DN porchers have felt the wrath of AOL. I have been in touch with my friends from high school for a few weeks, and we have been having a baseball/nostalgia fest going on with emails back and forth.
11 Yesterday I tried to respond to the group, which consists of eight to ten great friends from high school.
12 I sent off an email last night, and it returned, unable to deliver.
13 This just in: AOL, if you have uprgraded, why have you downgraded? Imbeciles. I'm about ready finally to change to G-mail.But I won't. But allow me to vent for a few seconds.
14 AOL: LISTEN! You have done this crap to your faithful for years now, but this one, COMPLETELY unannounced, romps clearly ridiculous. I could switch to any other company, import all my friends, and get my DN back out there.
15 <Pauses as smoke shoots out of his ears>
16 Dig it.
17 "We have grown..." --John Lennon, Starting Over
18 Sorry. Just had a Lennon moment.
19 Okay, so I must finish grades, and then get to you.
20 But seriously...you failed during the greatest week of my life.
21 And dude, you'll pay.
22 You will pay. Except that I'm always hesitant to do this. I'm afraid I'll lose track of people. So you won't pay. I'll have to figure out why you suddenly can't deliver a group of ten people my emails. And the thing about it is, I haven't the time to mess with you.
23 Moving on, Part the Second: Well honestly, it's nice to return to the wonderful work of KFOG, 97.7 FM. Always a wonderful drift at sunset, and boy, did anyone see last night's sunset? Oh yeah, I already asked that. Yeesh.
24 I actually had time to throw out a barbecue and salad, a new commitment to health, and a great dinner, while this thing drifted with Cirrus' clouds that were strawberry pink, and the sky an delicate light blue.
25 If there was a hummingbird out there, he enjoyed it.
26 Colors swirled, and my head swooned. Exhaustion had finally settled in.
27 Mind boggling. It was like my Mom dipped her brush into the delicate pallette that exists only in heaven, and brought her beauty on the world.
28 Mom.
29 Yeesh. What an artist.
30 You're not supposed to think of your Mom as gorgeous, amazing, talented, and eternal.
31 Sorry to pop your bubble.
32 My Mom was, and Is.
33 She proves Heaven exists, at least in my frabjous mind.
34 So thanks Mom, for understanding the importance of re-entry!
35 Be back, gotta have a moment.
36 Okay.
37 I need rest. Nicoley moves out this weekend, and I'm really gonna miss her.
38 Two teachers. She's becoming amazing. She loves teaching, and is really passionate about it. Is it without frustrations? No. But she has hung in there and has now had a few moments. She just left for school. Moment.
39 Thankfully, she's moving pretty close.
40 Anyway, Coley, your daddy is going to miss you.
41 I think that's all I have left in me on this incredible, incredible, emotionally draining week. It was without a doubt one of the longest weeks of my life, even though it had just as many hours as any other week.
42 So I'm gonna sleep a bit more, and then get ready for the last day of the longest week of the year.
43 Relativity.
44 Particles.
45 I need a miracle every day.
46 G'night.
47 Good morning.
48 Peace.
