Usually I keep half an eye on the floor of my apartment for piles of cat vomit. It is always in those rare moments when I decide it's unnecessary that I put my foot (usually bare, occasionally stockinged) into a warm pile (or, somehow worse, a cold one ( Read more... )

I really like your friend's metaphor about the same chess opponent for 10 years. It dovetails nicely with the "it's a big ol' world out there and you're only seeing a fraction of it" stuff I try to tell myself.

I hung out with vfc last night and you were briefly mentioned. I was like "yeah, what ever happened to that guy?"

I know what you mean about being squicked out when someone calls you a "writer" just by taking your word for it. It's a bit like being called a good kisser before any action has occurred. It's flattering in a sense, but unearned, and makes one fear being lumped in with the poseurs.

Well, I thought you communicated just fine via the written word. Good luck to you!

Good luck with everything, seriously. I enjoyed reading your entries, and meeting you (I'm still in Oakland and probably will be forever, so keep me in mind should you visit again -- also, I'm gonna be in Chicago next year -- and maybe this summer -- for the very first time and could probably use some help navigating). But I understand wanting to close a chapter, fo sho. The nice thing is that a new one starts after that.

Maybe I'll run into you sometime. Not that I'd know, because I have no idea what you look like, other than not being short and black. But good luck. I'm thinking of closing my joint down too.

You know, IT, I still tell people the car/bike "I'm on the phone" anecdote as though it happened to someone I actually know.

This "internets" thing is probably a flash in the pan, anyway. Well, if you're ever in New York, stop by Midtown Comics. I'll recommend something we'll end up being sold out of.

Later days!
