This week's world wide visitors

Greetings to:

Bogota, Colombia!
Florianopolis (possibly?), Brazil!
Genoa (or somewhere roughly in NWern), Italy!
Seoul, South Korea!
Budapest, Hungary!
Brisbane, Australia!

And it seems I've passed the 10 hits mark from San Diego, CA and picked up a visit from Arkansas!

Let's see if in the next month or two I can wrack up visits from anywhere in Africa and more places in Asia and South America.


P.S. I realize my posts have been kind of boring of late. Many apologies to those of you who actually have some interest in this blog. I have been catching up on and trying to stay up on school, which basically entails reading, sleeping in the reading room, more reading, some last minute writing, more sleeping, and sometimes eating, interrupted by the occasional cigarette break... however, now that the weather has turned frigid and windy, I find myself making less of an effort to consume said poison. When I am not pretending to be studious, I am busy taking pictures of inanimate objects, my drunk friends, and my feet, which I will begin to post in about a week's time once I acquire the requisite piece of technology to transfer them from my camera to my computer. Thanks to all of you for your patience, and I remain befuddled by the fact that while I have been writing less, I have been receiving more hits per day.

Now, for your enjoyment:

Dogs a' Barkin'

MY FEET HURT. I bought new shoes and I am paying for it dearly. I have been on my feet more in the past week than any time in the last 4 years. I haven't had a full time job in so long I forgot what it was like. And I'm considering taking on an unpaid internship for 6 hours a week on my days off. It's a spirituality and lifestyle bookstore across the street from my school and around the corner from my job. At the very least it could help me get a job at a different bookstore, if not that one. I'm only going to keep my job until the end of the summer, but I would not mind doing something part-time once school resumes, preferably somewhere where I would not be chastised for reading at work. I've mentioned in at least one previous post that I have difficulty staying in one place for too long. That sentiment applies both the jobs and domiciles.

There is a drooling cat sitting on my belly, purring like a little generator. She reminds me of Roslyn, my friend Sarah's cat. I was with Sarah when she got Roslyn, and I held the 3 week old kitten in my palms in the car as Sarah drove back to her apartment. Roslyn was my god kitten. I miss lil' Rozzie. But I do have Penelope for the time being. She is watching the screen as I write this. There is a tiny droplet of drool hanging off of her lip.
