on laziness
from Anton Chekhov in response to a prior letter from A. S. Suvorin, a friend who expounded many of Chekhov’s opinions:
“You write that my ideal is laziness. No, it is not laziness. I despise laziness as I despise weakness and lack of mental and moral energy. I was not talking of laziness but of leisure, and I did not say leisure was an ideal but only one of the essential conditions of personal happiness.”
and a snippet from Pablo Neruda’s poem Ode to Laziness
“Night time.
I was thinking of the duties
of my fugitive ode,
and so I threw off my shoes
beside the fire,
poured out the sand,
and soon I fell
sound asleep.”

saturday night happenings.
Last night was one of those nights when all kinds of happenings were happening and all your friends were going out but none of the ends of happenings and friends could never be met completely.So I stayed home and played text message tag with everyone. Making me very sleepy and irritable.
Finally Kristin came over with her friend Jayna and her boyfriend Eric. All was well after that. Her friend being most lovely and interesting in her ways of talking about authors we shared in common interest. Kristin always said we should meet, that we have so much in common. Kristin, being the most coincidental friend I have, is one whose word you cannot take for granted. Her ideas are thought-filled with the most heart that anything she says is never anything to sneeze at. This instance, like always, proved her right.
Today, I’m off to visit her at her new apartment, once and for all! She has turntables and I’ve got her headphones. We’ll be ready equipped to tag some sets with her most awesome electro records.
It is 6 a.m. on a Sunday morning and I’m awake. Risin’ and shinin’. Going to the cafe soon for my necessary coffee and refresher of current events with the nyt. Sundays being the best of days to watch basic cable for all that is discussed in politics. Tim Russert being my preference, Chris Matthews is on beforehand and is less annoying to watch than on Hardball. He sure does show his softer side during these segments, and of course, his ending summary beams his evident liberalness through the seams. Always a good way to start the week.
Monday is a day off. One I was unaware of until Friday morning. The nicest of surprises…
I’m off to dose myself with freely traded coffee beans tinged with all natural brown sugar. makes me think of that candy girl song - sugar, sugar - awww honey, honey…
I close with a poem, one of my top 5 of Neruda, recently recited by my lovely new friend of a friend, Jayna - the friendliest apple of Kristin’s kindred eye:
The Infinite One
Do you see these hands? They have measured
the earth, they have seperated
minerals and cereals,
they have made peace and war,
they nave demolished the distances
of all the seas and rivers,
and yet,
when they move over you,
little one,
grain of wheat, swallow,
they can not encompass you,
they are weary seeking
the twin doves
that rest or fly in your breast,
they travel the distances of your legs,
they coil in the light of your waist.
For me you are a treasure more laden
with immensity than the sea and its branches
and you are white and blue and spacious like
the earth at vintage time.
In that territory,
from your feet to your brow,
walking, walking, walking,
I shall spend my life.
- Pablo Neruda
i just don’t see it…
blog talk radio!
the one and only dream profession that i believe i would be successful at would be a talk radio host.
not for the sake of platform, topic or opinion, but to be a regular speaking voice on a show where listeners tuned in and guests visited for interviews and the like.
i’ve been told i have a pleasant speaking voice - which i felt could help with cold calling - but decided to save that pronounced energy for something bigger, and better…
now there is blogtalkradio.com. a beta newly released where anyone can host their own show!
i’ve scheduled a show for this evening at 11:30 p.m. for 30 minutes. not quite sure what i will be talking about, but hope to have some sort of agenda prior to then. i must have something to rant about for i’m sure there will be no listeners.
practice makes perfect…
mikla and i loooove sundays…
