I'm a Terrible, Terrible Blogger
It's starting to seem like every time I post something I make some smart-ass comment about how rarely I update this thing.
I'm over it.
Updates since... god damn, June? This could get messy...
-I helped my good friend Steve out on his dream of making a heist movie. It helped his case that he appealed to my ego by offering to have me both act and ( Read more... ) -
Rhode Island Summer - Chapter 2
Alright people, I'm doing it. I'm forcing myself to get this summer fiction back underway. I made the unfortunate discovery before writing this chapter that I had a lot of ideas, but didn't really have anything in mind for the characters themselves. I've got a better handle on that now, so hopefully I can just make the rest up as I go along.

Warning! Political Content!
Before I start the next chapter of Rhode Island Summer, I just thought I'd weigh in on the beginnings of the next presidential race. To summarize it in one phrase, I actually feel bad for Republican voters.
When the most promising candidate in the Republican ring is the guy from Law & Order, you know something's wrong. Ignoring him for now, we ( Read more... ) -
Rhode Island Summer - Chapter 1
Apparently I missed something. Sometime between the last time I posted and now it would seem that something unpleasant happened on Livejournal that resulted in a bunch of jounals being shut down or banned or something along those lines. Luckily, I was not among the affected (obviously). If anyone wants to fill me in, let me know in the comments ( Read more... ) -
Welcome Back to Real Life
Hello friends. It's been a while. It feels like it's been even longer. And no, I'm not referring to the last time I posted to the old LJ. I'm referring to the fact that starting last week I've been switched to day shift at work, and now I get to catch up on all the socializing I've been missing since, oh, January 2nd.
So let me break down my ( Read more... ) -
Oh sweet God I posted!
So Jerry Falwell passed away today. Should I feel like an asshole for really not having anything good to say about him? I mean, I'm sure it's hard on his family and whatnot, but his life's work was a fairly negative force in the world, at least to this particular outsider. His whole movement was based on religious fanaticism and intolerance, and ( Read more... ) -
Walking Along the Edge of Where the Ocean Meets the Land
Alright, let's see if we can get this updated regularly again ( Read more... ) -
Between the Click of the Light and the Start of the Dream
Just a quick update to let you all know I still exist. I haven't been posting regularly because a whole ton of stuff has come up, stuff that may determine whether or not I have a future. If it all goes the wrong way, well, I guess that means the Sex Pistols were right.
So until things either settle down or I find something unbearably interesting ( Read more... ) -
I Was Dead Before the Ship Even Sank
I'm back, bitches.
Yes, the title is a reference to the new Modest Mouse album, but the rest of the entry has next to nothing to do with it (suffice to say, it's damn good, as is the new Arcade Fire album) (I bought them both on the same day). I was going to write a detailed review, but then I heard something else that beared writing about.
Finally ( Read more... ) -
I'm Afraid of Americans
On Sunday FlareGunSuicide played a battle of the bands at the Riverside in Danielson, CT... and we just may have won it.
First off, Danielson is a town I had never heard of or been to before, so that in and of itself was an adventure (you haven't lived until you've taken 102 all the way up the entire state of Rhode Island). The town itself was ( Read more... )
