Well for my birthday I wanted to wake up early and go get breakfast. But I was having a really interesting dream about WW1 so I went back to sleep for an hour ( Read more... )

I got a little Brian Wilson-ish on Saturday and simply couldn't force myself into any sort of social encounter. I got a hold of a copy of "This Gun for Hire" starring Alan Ladd and Veronica Lake, as well as "Miller's Crossing". Both films left me in a shadowy place as I fell asleep on my couch. Now my back hurts, really need to stop sleeping on ( Read more... )

After work today I want to some how: get a hair cut, do laundry, drop off my rent check and eat something healthy. I might stroll by Common Market tonight, but I probably won't stay late; I want to be able to get up early and exercise before I try to hike up to the Bon Odori festival downtown. I hope they are doing some Kendo demonstrations, and ( Read more... )

Last night I stubbed my pinky toe when walking out of the dojo. When putting on my shoes I noticed that I could bend my pinky in a peculiar way, and it still hurt this morning when I woke up.

After a little jogging and walking I stretched and ate my ( Read more... )

Last night after work I met up with bolahead  and we headed to Lupie's where I foolishly ordered us the two layer nachos. About one layer in we realized that there was no way we were going to finish them so I boxed them up and returned home. After he left I decided to lay on the couch and do some reading. I closed my eyes briefly, and suddenly 6 hours had ( Read more... )

I spent much of the weekend on my feet wandering about aimlessly in my neighborhood. After some really good food at Landmark on Friday I evenually walked up to The Breakfast Club where I stood around laughing inside at some of the people I saw. Of course they were probably giggling a the tall goofy man with the shirly temples...

Saturday morning my ( Read more... )

Ok following The Magus up with Love in the Time of Cholera was probably very bad for my fragile grasp on reality. I love the magical realism...
I also checked out a copy of Dostoyevsky's The Idiot. Yep, time to get that old brain moving again.

On that note, we also need to re-engage in our career, and really start thinking about the future...

...wake up on a sunny July morning thinking about We the Living.

Why does Summer always have to be the worst time of year for me?
