I stayed home from work sick today, and as a result must work twelve hour shifts both tomorrow and Thursday. It was so nice outside today, though, that I just had to get out and take advantage of the wonderfully warm weather. And so, after a quick survey of Caribou for conversational company, I've landed here, slightly disappointed with my lack of ( Read more... )

I must say, I really like Lars Von Trier.

Just got done swimming 15 laps, and am now waiting for Morin to pick me up, which won't happen for another two hours, so I have time to kill. An opportunity has possibly arisen for me to move into a legitimate apartment, complete with a working shower, stove, and kitchen sink. Not sure I'll be able to comfortably afford $575 a month on my own, but ( Read more... )

i need to meet an androgynous socialist thelemite

Yesterday I did something I don't think I've done since highschool. I sat down at my window, my window that faces the east, and I lit some candles, and I put The Smiths on repeat, and I inked a legal pad with every last drop of substance I could squeeze from my brain. This went on from 7:30 PM until midnight, when my phone rang. I can't say the ( Read more... )

It is still dark and dangerous inside my being, but oh well. In other news, my acne seems to be improving. I knew the sun was good for something, besides allowing shadows to exist. Alas, I go to the store. Then I will call Matt. Then I will read more contemporary literature. Then I will read more of _The Middle Pillar_. Then I will continue ( Read more... )

Just figured I'd type in the news and make it official to the world. Single life is going to be weird for a while. If anyone wants to go out drinking with me, or knows of any cool events going on, I'm game. ( Read more... )

As the Smashing Pumpkins put it, the end is the beginning is the end. Likewise, the beginning is the end is the beginning. Shadows dance about. The shadows indicate the presense of something solid, possibly.

Thanks to libraries that close at 6:00, I'll be brief. Not sure what beckoned me to type nonsense in the dialog box of livejournal this afternoon, but nonetheless, here it is. Been doing a fair deal of reading recently, but the more I plow through, the more I realize that any end I had in mind is pointless. I think I will be a more effectual person ( Read more... )

The sooner you finish with one book, the sooner you can return it and start the next. Today was another unsatisfactory day, belonging to the same series as the countless spanning out before it like a barren planet. But of course, it's just a matter of perspective -- the face on the underside of the coin, that perceives only the walls made by its ( Read more... )
