yesterday...

I was sitting on my bed thinking.

I tend to do that often. Sit and think. (I can sit and spin, but only when the opportunity allows, so really, not that often... plus I have an aversion to motion sickness.)

and I was thinking, "Hey, this thought would be cool to put down somewhere."

The fact is, though, that I do not have a computer at my house right now.

No, that is a lie. I have two computers, but one does not have an OS loaded yet, and the other is the first computer that I built (which was six years ago) and I pretty much never use it, so anything I put on it usually gets lost. (Although I do know that the computer is always accessible, I tend to forget that stuff is on it, hence "lost")

In any case, I am racking (or is it wracking? No, it is racking) my brain trying to figure out what it was.

... ... ...

Anyhow, I found a whole bunch of music videos that my friends and I made in 1997... I am pretty sure it was '97 because Kris was blonde and had not yet shaved off all his hair, and there is a picture of Kris and Eric at Hamilton showing off their heads... and the tape from which we made the video came from Reno, who was, at the time, dating Steen, who was the one that brought the tape... In any case, these videos are the descendants of the classic ones made in 1994 featureing Chris E and myself, which were inspired from the semi-lost tapes of the early 1990's, starring Steen, myself, Rommel, Nana, Kimmie, Meesa, the wonderful sounds from the Korg M1, and the pencil/pipe...

I need to make these videos digital, because the mylar is slowly degrading and the magnetic information is slowly seeping away...

... ... ...

That only came up because I was watching the videos when I thought about the thing I was thinking about that I do not remember.

I heard that ginko biloba actually makes you bruise much easier... these doctors told me that it thins your blood and that is why it helps with your memory buy getting more oxygen to your brain.

Lorie likes to look in my ear and say "I can see your brain."

it is cute.

... ... ...

In any case, I could have used my PDA to catch my thoughts, but I was lazy.

So, I did not.

and that is how the story goes.
