Delia the Construction Wizard, and Pictures of Alan

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

I tried to post something last night, but my computer freaked out in the middle of it, and it was already 1am, so I just pulled the covers over my head and conked out for the night.
First I have to say that I have been working like a dog for days…  I’ve been working 12-15 hours […]

On Being Delia 2

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008

My third week as Delia: Being Delia has been difficult this week.  Several friends wrote emails saying that they missed me, that they hadn’t realized the full extent of what I am doing and what it would mean for them.  They also asked if there was any way to contact me.  As Delia, I read their emails […]

Fun with Video Games!

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008

I went over to Botgirl’s house to play video games.  She’s a friend of Jane’s who’s into gaming.  When I called, she said, “I’m kind of a geek about this stuff.”  I said, “Don’t worry, me too!” 
She let me play Ratchet and Clank while she looked for the second control.  I got killed about seven […]

Sunbathing

 I’m going to go sit by the pool and work on the computer while I get a tan!  Life’s hard here in the desert…
BTW I took this photo without showing my hips which is where I need to lose weight.  Tomorrow I’m really going to go on a diet!!  Really!!!   and today I’m going to […]

Homesick…

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

I ate dinner alone again tonight.  It was such a beautiful night, that I lit some candles, plugged in the string lights out on the patio, and found a jazz station on the radio.  Sitting under the stars and full moon on a gorgeous night, I should have felt happy and sophisticated.  Instead, I felt sad and alone. 
In […]

Arrrgh!

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Jane’s computer doesn’t work!  It’s being fixed, but in the meantime… I’m stuck!
I’m at the library right now just checking a few things and getting directions.  I’m going to the Anthropology Museum to check on Jane’s installation…  She’s in a show on American culture, and they need me to look at the space and drop […]

Whiter Teeth

Monday, March 17th, 2008

My teeth are not as white as they could be… I drink a lot of coffee. 
So I decided to try a teeth whitener.  It’s one of those kinds with the plastic “trays” you put in your mouth.  They weren’t too bad, except my mouth started watering and you have to keep them in for 30 […]

A Little More About Alan

Monday, March 17th, 2008

I got another message from Alan.  He seems like a really hard worker.  That’s something I think is important.  I work hard, so it’s difficult for me to understand lazy people.  I can respect taking your time on something or feeling overwhelmed, but I can’t understand having no motivation.    Maybe […]

Big Brother: My Story

Monday, March 17th, 2008

 

I remember standing outside my brother’s door, looking at the stickers that covered its surface.  Things like a snake with “Don’t Tread On Me” written across it, or the iconic grinning redhead, Alfred E Newman from Mad Magazine.  Some of them were new and some half peeled off.  I didn’t have stickers on my door.

“Sam?  […]
