... in some weird way, it really captures the *spirit* of the journal (and, besides, clicking and reclisking while trying to get grammatically correct ones is fun).

So. Aside from that ... despite the bizarre lack of focus in this entry, it was a really productive day: I'm feeling happy with myself. E-mailed JFA people with deadlines, e-mailed JofMA with revisions for essay one (two to come tonight if I keep feeling productive), working on reviews, and generally thinking that life, single, is kinda goooooood.

Does that mean that I won't respond to the nice man from Friendster who e-mailed me? Well ... no. I'm smug, not stupid.

(Side note: heard "Low Self Esteem" on the radio yesterday and HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD! It's worse than that damn "Sinister Ducks" song ...)

Wow, old offspring. That's like playing....uh...old offspring on the radio. Nothing is comparable to it. Who are the cynical ducks?

"The March of the Sinister Ducks" was written by Alan Moore, and about the unspeakable evils of water-fowl. It contains lines like:

Nasty and small: undeserving of life.
Ducks. Ducks. Quack-quack. Quack-quack.
They'll sneer at your hairstyle and sleep with your wife.
Ducks. Ducks. Quack-quack. Quack-quack.
Dressed in plaid jackets and horrible shoes,
Getting divorces and turning to booze.
Ducks. Ducks. Quack-quack. Quack-quack.
Ducks. Ducks. Quack-quack. Quack-quack.

Under no circusmstances got to http://www.harpercollins.com/hc/images/om/JB/SinisterDucks-MarchoftheSinisterDucks.mp3 to listen to it. Even if Neil Gaiman does recommend it ...
