So I’m reading the Fountainhead, and I took my bookmark out at pages 588-599 because what was on those pages moved me to the point where I didn’t need it to remember where I was ( Read more... )

I just started my Christmas shopping today, because as the kids say nowadays, that is how I roll. I got most all of it done in one huge session. On a related note, if you are buying me something or planning on buying me something, let me know so I make sure to get something for you as well and don’t feel like Mr. Douchey McDouchebag on Christmas.

Saturday was the Smash Tournament and even though I placed worse than I liked I had a really good time.

I meant to have an update done for tonight, but I’m not going to be finished, so instead I’m going to post someone else’s writing. It’s a short story written by Geoff Rickly, lead singer of the band Thursday. It’s fewer than 500 words but is one of my favorite things I’ve ever read (it’s in the lyric booklet for Thursday’s Five Stories Falling EP ( Read more... )

In case any legitimate media folks are reading this for some reason, here is my hug classification system that I’ve been working on. I hope in time this becomes the definitive standard for hug classification. If it is possible for such a thing to exist ( Read more... )
