random oddities, work and life

I saw the strangest thing today and it struck me as so odd. Once common, now practically obsolete. I watched someone use a pay phone and it seemed so weird, so out of place, like it was a scene from a movie. Do people really still use pay phones asked the girl who never leaves her cell...

random...

other than that, i got a new cell today. downgrading from the clunky blackberry double email/phone leash to a simple phone...will this change my life? one can only guess...

in other news...

i just do a whole lot of working these days, with 50 odd days til the rocket event of the year, what else can I expect? check out my life at www.xprizecup.com it's going to be amazing, then i'm going to sleep for all of November. :)

one more thing...
we moved into a cool new house with lots of rooms and very cool roomies. dinner with the roomies and 2 associated boyfriends felt like a small dinner party at 8 people. it was cool. though, i dig it, it's fun to come home to.

life moves quickly and with lots or lost flurries of activity,
but i'm happy...

what if?

what if fact were the fiction we created?
what if reality were the dreams that we stated?
what if love was predetermined, not decided?
what if pain was brutal, then subsided?
what if we surrender instead of fight it?
what if embraced instead of chided?
what if we deliberated instead of hated?
what if we explored instead of conquered?
what if resources were stored and not whore'd?
what if we savored not devoured?
what if we preserved instead of soured?
what if life we lived, not just endured?
what if cries for help were really heard?
what if we believed and not convicted?
what if we invented not demented?
what if hearts were soft but not dented?
what if we had the answers, not the questions...
