Subject: damn gophers

do you ever email ___?

this transcript thing is not good. i either have to go get it in person or send away by mail for it, which takes 3 days. either way, the ___ wants it attached in an email, so wtf?! i don't know. i'm trying to expedite this process and i can't very well call the ___ from here so...suggestions? it seems like the ___ should just be able to access it, no?


i will keep digging.

Office girl.


This email came out of no where.


Any question you would ask of it I probably would not be able so answer, it stands alone as the greatest HUH!?!? Email I think I gave ever received.

Here we are:

I believe I have what most spend their lives searching for... lost, empty. It would take quite an email and much debate to get past cliché and open you up to the possiblity that a great connection does and can exist.

There are complexes in our lives-everywhere. We all are great complexes. Everything we develop and become is based off complexes and how we learn from them. We would be nothing nor extraordinary if such a thing did not exist.

Next stop was an after party for the documentary about the vampire gubernatorial at Stub n Herbs. The food was terrible and it was overcrowded with Aussies for some reason. Swung through Jager for transmission on the way home. Busy night.
