The last hour has gone by rather quickly.

Joseph Conrad’s vocabulary is vast.

I had a delightful time at the Greene family’s house on Friday eve. Nice comments from all I must say. Even those with extra holes in the mouth. I don’t think I have ever heard someone say “Pay attention to me!”, let alone twice to the same person. So new things come at unexpected times. Perhaps I am too exacting in my estimation of character.

Intrusive is a great word. It’s exactly what I don’t like. “Mind your own business,” often comes to mind as a response when people inquire of me. I often stave off such rude uncalled for responses in favor of the lil’ guys. I am an arrogant brute. Despite myself.

I fear I may be obsessed with drawing in my Moleskine. It is just so stinking cool looking when you draw in it and then write really small within the drawing. Now, I’ve yet to find words of substance to write in the drawings, but they do have purpose. You can find a picture of one such drawing to the right, if you care to inspect.

KH Building Projects are really a nice experience. It takes a certain measure of patience to receive assignments that last longer than twenty minutes or so. Staying till 10:30 PM working helps with that. Supply and demand. When you are one of the few workers in supply, they demand you do the work. It’s nice that way. Learned a lot about metal duct work. It is very sharp. Also, as I over heard that Muller boy being told, “since it’s metal and not your friend a girl, you can HIT it.” Good times. I also enjoyed introducing Handsome Rob as such. I love the seemingly endless supply of hot coffee. Scissor lifts are fun to drive, although somewhat nervous in large crowded buildings. Oh yea, DON’T TALK DURING THE WATCHTOWER STUDY!
