Moonlit Jazz

Fiddled with Vida alá Valerie a bit. Just updated the link to the weblog. I hope. 😛

The beginning of my next Dark Angel fanfic…

PALO ALTO, CA 2018

Jazz. Zack took a healthy swig of his beer, his soul untouched by the sad wail of the saxophone. Moonlight. His eyes barely registered the pale, silver shadows spilling through the windows of the club. He felt only the cold comfort of the alcohol coursing through his blood.

Zack was on one of his routine checks. The Bay Area was a good place to blend in and disappear and his bartender sister had done just that. When he first walked in, he’d merely nodded at her and found a dim corner to watch the crowd. She brought him a drink, then went back to work. Zack preferred minimal contact.

The club door opened, the cool night air bringing in the faint scent of a sweet perfume. Zack watched as a woman stepped in. A ready smile curved her lips and he watched as her hand ran through her dark hair. His eyes traced the curves beneath her suit as she walked to the bar. She knew her way in this place. He looked away just as her eyes caught his.

Zack took a deep breath, frowning at his sudden discomfort. Lust was a weakness he rarely indulged and this would not be one of those moments. He should leave.

This computer is annoying me!!! Well, namely the IE browser. It keeps freezing up. I HATE IT!!!

I might do more fiddling with this weblog, but first I think I need to revamp the personal side of Kiari’s Corner first…

I’m merging my personal weblog and my latest one….

From about an hour or so ago?…

Every night I seem to come here and fiddle with this new weblog. That could be a good thing, of course. But there are other things I should be doing. Some examples:

1. Laundry – those whites are piling up!
2. Screencaptures for the last Dark Angel episode, “Exposure.”
3. That story I mentioned yesterday. Or even my yet unwritten sci-fi epic.
4. Catching up on my emails to my friends…
5. Writing a letter to someone…
6. Putting up the screencaps from the Independent Spirit Awards. (Ryan Gosling looks so cute!)

I’m sure I could think of other things. 😛

From yesterday, 03.27.02:

My latest piece of fanfiction is tentatively called Moonlit Jazz. Or is it Moonlight and Jazz? Something on that variation. Tis a Dark Angel fanfic focused on Zack and a lady named Eleni. Yes, the same one in the story “One Night with Alec,” which is currently housed at Eyes < ->< -> Only. Check it out! 🙂

Yes, you can comment on my commentary. Just be nice, ‘k? 😉

Right now I’m listening to Norah Jones. Kinda jazzy, kindy folksy, kinda breezy, but definitely easy and soothing. Yes, I’d recommend her…

Harry Connick Jr. is in the Bay Area starting… hey, TODAY! LOL!

3/27/02 Oakland, CA Paramount Theatre
3/29/02 San Francisco, CA Orpheum Theatre
3/30/02 San Francisco, CA Orpheum Theatre
3/31/02 San Jose, CA Center for the Performing Arts
4/1/02 Oakland, CA Yoshi’s (two shows, quartet only)

We’re going to the show on Saturday, the 30th. Woohoo, Harry! I’m really looking forward to seeing him again. 🙂 Hmm, kinda wish I could make that Yoshi’s gig. Sounds intimate…

It’s only Wednesday and I’m already looking forward to the weekend. Yikes! Saturday, Harry. Sunday, Easter. Monday, Opening Night! Jazz, holiday, baseball. What more could you want?

Ohh, and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Colby! Now I know he’ll never read this . 😀

I wrote this poem on Kevin’s birthday. Or sometime this past weekend. 🙂

Not a day shall pass
without a thought of you,
Your memory I hold fast…
I try and smile now
when I remember you,
I know the tears will pass…
But sometimes I falter
in the laughter
And wish you still upon this earth–
To hear you sing once more,
To see you smile again,
Another lifetime’s worth…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEFF! Yes, I know I said it already, but that was almost a month ago. LOL! (No, he probably won’t read this either. Oh well!)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CELESTE! Ha, you probably won’t read this, eh?

Why does it seem as though The X-Files is just getting better? I’m probably in the minority in this, but since the announcement of its end, the episodes seem to have that old mystique about them. Cripes, it’s probably just me. LOL!

I think I had another weird dream. I can’t figure out what it was about though. Oh well…

And I just have to say, I do not like writing in my weblog using Netscape. I’m missing some features that are present when I use IE. Why is that?
