Thursday, July 31, 2003. Okay, so i am in nebraska. and i work in a plant science lab building. but is that really enough reason for there to be signs above the drinking fountains that say "please do not spit tobacco down the drain? I have to get out of here. Posted by renee 10:17 AM. Wednesday, July 30, 2003. Posted by renee 2:03 PM. Tuesday, July 29, 2003. Posted by renee 10:45 AM. Ivanna cone and fire escapes and girlfriends make up for the lack of boy. That should be comforting but isn't. Not really&...

Monday, March 31, 2003. Posted by renee 5:36 AM. Friday, March 28, 2003. Woken up two days in a row by phone calls. Tomorrow, i will hopefully be woken up by the sun on a beach in elba. Or near one, at least. Yesterday afternoon i was busy getting lost (on purpose, mind you). And turned a corner only to hear the moonlight sonota wafting down from a third story window. And all i wanted at that moment was to have a piano. I start getting weird when i don't have one. It's really rather silly. With each day ...

Tonight i went to first avenue, got my coat full of smoke smell and my ears full of ringing. It was karen o's birthday. they brought her out a cake during the encore and she blew out the candles all at once. Posted by renee 12:43 AM. Saturday, November 22, 2003. I would like to write "civic journalism, in my opinion, is...

Friday, January 31, 2003. Well, my last post for my second week of italy has arrived. Improving slightly, although my accent will be forever. I ask shopkeepers questions in Italian and they respond in English almost every time. sigh. Sticking around home this weekend and hopefully i will find the time to get groceries and start working on postcards. When asked, bobby. That is all for now. Oh, except for a slight brag about the chicken i made with fresh olive oil and wine for dinner last night. mmm. It is...

Tuesday, September 22, 2009. The way i imagine it happened. Somewhere, a man woke up. It was a sunday and the street was quiet. He stared at the ceiling. The fan wobbled, and went click click click click. He closed his eyes again and listened. Drumming one finger on his chest with the beat. His mind otherwise blank. He swung his legs over the side of the bed and sat up. Just like every day. The thought came and flitted away leaving nothing. In the kitchen, he poured cheerios into a styrofoam bowl. The cl...

Thursday, August 28, 2003. I am not good enough now. It is always now. I will never be good enough. Too many people spend their lives on the brink of greatness but never really make it. I do not want to waste my time here. I do not want to waste my time NOW. Why am i sitting in the library writing blither? If we really valued the present, we would watch far less tv. We would live in the presence of God more. The moment is timeless. I need to get out of here. Posted by renee 5:43 PM. It is not fair. Hoora...

Tuesday, September 30, 2003. Going through trying to organize the excessive amount of drivel on my computer, whether class related or otherwise resulted in a wasted evening and the rediscovery of this, which is still so true:. My jones says go easy, be moderate and patient. This is not at all within my nature. Sometimes a quality indistinguishable from an all out explosion of uncontrollable flames. I am not on fire. I do not need to be put out. In fact, I like it this way. Posted by renee 11:43 PM. And n...

Wednesday, April 30, 2003. Things are cheap here. See you in a week, kids. Posted by renee 9:53 AM. Sunday, April 27, 2003. Posted by renee 1:55 PM. Saturday, April 26, 2003. Leaving florence tomorrow morning. I am sad that i had to give my cell phone back. Dang technology for being so darn useful. I almost catch myself saying to micah "i miss you when you're gone". But it's never him that's gone. I'm coming home, though. Posted by renee 5:11 AM. Thursday, April 24, 2003. Posted by renee 5:29 AM. Don't y...

Wednesday, December 31, 2003. Remember that thing about never being present at the actual point of death? I hit a rabbit on the way home tonight. kinda gross, but not really as earthshattering as i'd thought. My new year's resolutions are. 1) to be perfect. 2) to keep a budget. 3) to think of others before i think of myself. 4) to think of God before i think of others. 5) to pray and mean it. 7) to cry out to my Creator when i fail even at #6.
