I remain without a consistent connection and so regrettebly have been unable to keep on top of this online venue. I wait for something, yet i know not what it may be. I pour my free time in the literal and figurative sense seeking inspiration. I find none. I sit staring into sceneries, books, empty space endless lamenting what ifs and should haves. Where does one find the strength to embrace the now?? I find it harder still to plan for the future. I find myself indentured to my own inadequacy as an enlightened, emboldened, or any other self seeking adjective that I lack the courage to maintain in truth or pretense. Alas a smile adorns my face for I know not the woes my existence may yet yield.

quatro de mayo
same old same old sprinkled with some new i suppose. I have begun making my first forays into the anchorage scene. Wandered the streets friday night with a backpack and a complete lack of purpose... it was glorious. Stopped in at many random shops, hit the bookstore, stopped by the thrift shop, and dined vienamese style. I concluded the night with a stop at the local dive Chilkoot Charlies, legendary here in anchorage for the "last" stop of the night kind of scene. It did not disappoint me in that sense and to say the least it was a dramatic shift from the dillingham scene. I don't belong in cities!! I sat with mouth agape for the span of three guinesses watching young, atrociously clad vixens flinging themselves at men of little or no class. Ohh but good news to report... the mullet is alive and well here in Las Anchorage :-). I had to avert my eyes at the sheer volume of mullet i was forced to take in. by the way this all occured friday night.
Saturday was a late celebration of russian orthodox easter with the family's neighbor Natalie. WOW. I was made to consume vodka's from around the nordic realms while feasting amongst some folks from around the neighborhood of greek and russian lineage (quite a bunch). I have to say it was quite an enjoyable time and I met some new folks that with a little luck will become friends around this godforsaken urban jungle ;-). I forgot to mention that before the festivities I went out with some couch crashers at my current establishment. We saw "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and then celebrated cinco de mayo early with some Margarita's at La Mex haha one of the most unauthentic mexican fare establishments ive ever had the pleasure of being part of. I am struck now with the statement I had made perhaps a month and a half ago. That I might attempt to limit and/or eliminate the consumption of alcoholic beverages. well chalk up that dismal failure and very clear example of self denial!! I don't know maybe I am being swept up in the surroundings but i look only to myself for the blame. Admittedly i may have even made the pledge while under the influence, go figure. Dont judge me ya bastid. well i think this post has given you quite a glimpse into my beginnings here is Anchorage ...
The Rosanero gained a glorious victory over Lazio this morning, 2-1. Amauri scored both goals in the last 15 minutes i fear that he will be picked up this season by a team with more prestige. If indeed he does all the best for I think he has shown decent if not significant displays of talent throughout the season, though he will be missed
Interenet is still dodgy at the residence so sorry for the lack of postings to my non existent audience ;-). (beside my one kind and compassionate sibling thanks brosef)
