I'm writing this from a cubicle. An acquaintance told me over a drink she encountered an entitled man pissing on her doorstep this morning, I said that was my afternoon meeting! I'm writing this from a cubicle. I have a friend who logs in every day and never looks at the front page. I wish the green tea were rose. I'm too lazy to correct that. The professor professes too much, a decade, two decades, twenty-four months to the day later. I'm supposed to go to a reception. I "stole" these headphones. I stole this cubicle. I spent so much time being careful.

David Brazil is working to convene a second labor and community-focused 'Poetic Labor Project' gathering for this Labor Day, 2011, and is looking for others to collaborate with him on organizing this event.  If you are interested in participating, please email David at plp.laborday2011@gmail.com.

Regular Monday Night Chatting

Dear All,

At risk of boring you To Death with yet another posting on this subject, I would anyway like to let you know that Steve Benson and I are committed now to giving "LiveChat" performance every Monday night, 6:30pm Pacific, 9:30pm Eastern, for the foreseeable future. The chats will last 30 minutes unless specified otherwise, and, if one of us can't make it any given Monday, the other will carry on regardless.


The place where all the chats reside is here. On that page, you can sign up for email reminders (from fifteen minutes to one day ahead) on each of the individual chats.


If you'd like a personal reminder from one of us on the evenings of, please send your email address to suzannestein AT mindspring DOT com with subject line LIVE CHAT. Or, leave your address in the comment box.


Thanks for attending! We hope to make it interesting for you.

Yours,


SS / SB

My new year's resolution for at least one month is to no longer book my social life by the rules of the Outlook calendar for business. I am not booked. I won't book anything at all. I won't plan after hours. I am always free to see you if you call me that day.
