I Me Mine, I Me Mine, I Me Mine

Kind of a sad day on the 'Nets*. Seems to be an odd, off day for a lot of us. A difficult day. Or as shadesong more succinctly put it, "What's with *today* today?"

Thus today should be declared a Be Better Day. How to be better? Figure it out. I'm not the boss of you, and you know you better than I do, so your definition of Be Better will be something that fits you.

I'll be useful, which is still possible on a vacation day. Maybe I'll better codify what Be Better means for me. The point, I think, is to be positive. Helpful. Hopeful. These are good skills.

Be Better, everyone. You can.

* If this is also a sad day for the New Jersey Nets, I wouldn't know. You know which 'Nets I mean.

Like knowing that Matthew Vaughn's film adaptation of the comic book Kick-Ass will be rated R. ("For strong brutal violence throughout, pervasive language, sexual content, nudity and some drug use – some involving children." Much of which was hinted at in the red-band trailer.)

Please be good, please be good, please be good...

I want to get out and be social tonight.

Two possibilities: maybe, maybe, Road House - The Play (show at 8:00 at a club I've been to before, so I know how to get to it) will still have Standing Room Only tickets available for tonight, but I can't count on that.

The other possibility is seeing cmpriest, author of the fun steampunk novel Boneshaker (It's the end of Seattle as the 19th century knows it!), who's signing at Powell's in Beaverton at 7:00.

One or the other, Chris, one or the other... don't get paralyzed and wind up not doing either. You want to Be Better, after all...
