A train derailed in Southern California today. 10 dead so far, hundred injuries. It appears a train hit an SUV sitting on the tracks by a suicidal man. Who lived, by the way. What a selfish fuck. Even worse, the SUV driver changed his mind about suicide and left the vehicle before it was hit. [...]
I gripe in someone else's journal that I never get my tax stuff as early as everyone else, and the mutual funds drop into my lap. Looks like we will owe about $600 on those. Not bad, considering that's all from the long-term gains of selling thousands in mutual funds in order to buy the [...]

I have been photographed for the last hour by two photojournalism students, in my glass studio. DLJ is making homemade pizza, and the wine bottle has been opened. Life, she [...]
Way less heavy. Note to <lj user="jenwrites">: "Do you think Shakespeare was gritting his teeth and diligently trying to write Great Literature? Of course not. He was having fun. That's why he's so good." -Paul Graham All you urban fashionista somethings, gym bunnies, alterna-chicks, bellydancin', trend-watching (yes, I said WATCHING, not setting), conformist, "cool hipsters…..", [...]
Pretty well! There's things I've wanted but I don't need, and I have not bought. Now, Darth Tater is going to be hard to resist. We shall see. But for the most part, No CDs, no extra clothes (I really need socks though, most of mine have holes), no video games. We've been eating out [...]
