Blogiversary
I can't believe that I missed my 1-year blogiversary--July 18th. It's hard for me to remember the initial foray into the blog-world, but I'm sure it was a fun mix of:
1. Post-break-up angst.
2. A lot of time on my unemployed ass.
3. Jealousy that Ms. Wish to See was technologically advanced.
And now, let's do a quick re-cap.
1. I'm still getting no action in the bedroom, which I guess is okay since it would be action in my parents' guestroom and that would be icky.
2. I still don't have a permanent job, although contracting and getting my business idea off the ground are taking considerable chunks out of days I would otherwise be spending on my ass.
3. After visiting Ms. Wish to See last weekend, I am still totally jealous of her technology--this time in the form of wireless speakers--connected to her computer, no less!--all over her house.
But I digress. My real query is this:
The following sentence is both the opening line of a Counting Crows song, and also the first sentence of a famous book.
Step out the front door like a ghost into a fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white.
I've read that book within the last 3 years and it's driving me CRAZY that I can't remember the title. I have no other information about the book--just the connection to that first sentence sticks with me.
A special prize to anyone who knows...

Step out the front door like a ghost into a fog where no one notices the contrast of white on white And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view of the crumbling difference between wrong and right I walk in the air between the rain through myself and back again Where? I don't know...
But I being poor have only my dreams. I have laid my dreams beneath your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
-William Butler Yeats
