Cold hands, warm heart
Not again, it seems like every other day. Why today? Brendan Benson has a way of making things less mundane. Waking up to a text message from Destiny was awesome. That girl is growing up, and it seems like she's the most level headed of the Thomas clan. Considering her circumstances that's no small feat ( Read more... ) -
I must keep reminding myself of this
Disposition is the sum of thoughts. It's a melody that wavers sing-song in the perpetual breeze of a coming storm, and weathering the consequences. At times my mind wanders to this place under a tree and it signifies something in myself. I'm spending too much time with idle hands and idle thoughts. After seeing Kira and soon after Molly with our ( Read more... ) -
A mustache is almost as cool as a beard, except not
What am I chained to that keeps me in Constance? Be quiet and drive says it all. I just want to be away from this knackered feeling of listless melancholy. Just stop being so capricious, just stop being so broken, just fill your heart with a song. Learn to whistle is the term for a song I wrote. It explains that enamored sensation I long to capture ( Read more... ) -
What made Milwaukee famous
Robert Frost once said "The best way out is always through." Nine Inch Nails once coined the title "The way out is through." Hence-forth I will be able to say without a doubt, trudging through the life I've made for myself is best if I move forward and not sideways. Sideways may seem easier because you're not moving upstream but you lose ground. ( Read more... ) -
Untitled, the movie, part four (in the beginning)
Principle writing for Singularity has begun and I'm really excited about the whole ordeal. First draft may be done in a matter of weeks. I'm thinking final draft should be done by summertime and around then Robert is planning on shooting his zombie movie, which, I may become involved with in some form or fashion. Exciting as any time could be I'm ( Read more... ) -
A rich diversion
Moving away from problems used to be the most efficient and easily the most comfortable end solution. Moving around my whole life has left in me, a weird way, needing to constantly struggle with myself and stagnancy. It sickens me when I haven't done something fresh and new. As I'm growing up I have to figure out for the first time what it means to ( Read more... ) -
Scabs and bruised knuckles
Keren Ann played a bitter-sweet overture in my dreams, where everything seemed to move like bad claymation. I could fly, I was one of a few who had gifts. I woke up kicking the bottom of the couch because I had to jump to get away from an explosion. It was a disheartening way to wake up, not only because I realized that nothing was true, but also ( Read more... ) -

Watching the fire as we grow old
Interview Monday, it's a mutual observation period, or so it's said. I'm not so excited but I'll be happy to be doing something with myself. I'm not rotting, in fact I'm in the best shape of my life and doing more writing then I've ever done, but I'm not healthy, not in the convenient sense of the phrase. I'm barely within my means so it's ( Read more... ) -
Finger puppets and life-size paper dolls
Scribbled fleetingly on napkins in an overly typical fashion in a coffee house at 6 in the morning are the words that surface when nothing else can be said. A sweet face peers to see what thoughts can be poured over dead trees. Something that can't be seen by passers-by because of selfish arms that cover in discretion. Doesn't stop that smiling ( Read more... )
