broke out the pen

Saturday, July 29th, 2006

the real pen, from senior year. they market that you can feel the soul in their instruments and from the heft, the balance, it’s true. but i kinda wish they never became a luxury brand. i mean, the reason einstein wrote with them was because they were common, standard. nevertheless, one should not be without [...]

playlists for the self

Monday, July 24th, 2006

two sided all divided

wafting down the river

Friday, July 21st, 2006

floating along lazily spurs casual contemplation i realize i don’t understand how most people think. at all. in the least. makes you wonder what it is that makes em tick. what makes a person interesting, and maybe more relevant: makes them interested you can be with someone, hell, even surrounded by people and still feel [...]

breakfast of champions

weetabix is the only cereal with minimal sugar that actually tastes good (to me anyway) i think it helps that it is THE cereal of choice for Cayce Pollard.

high expectations leads to greater disappointment

Wednesday, July 19th, 2006

and some people perhaps neglect to set those high expectations in the first place. unfortunately, i seem to be incapable of enjoying such luxury, even on a day to day basis. pity.

chopped refresh

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

a sort of existence with freetime permeated with the feeling of guilt thinking that i could be producing with my time. i am blessed and i am cursed.

perhaps the greatest testament

Monday, July 17th, 2006

for my willingness to innovate is the ease at which i allow technology to induce anger a deep-set rooted rage to emerge from within i need to unplug.

random unimportant notes: * fresh cheese curds must be used within 24 hours to keep their signature “squeak”. * said cheese curds are excellent in poutine, but not as important as the sauce * poutine, for those who do not yet know, is a sinful (and by sinful, i mean heart-attack inducing) dish of fries, [...]

“wow, it’s almost morning out east… i should just sleep… but i can’t fucking hell. what’s the point of having a car if i can’t go driving at 2 in the fucking morning. … wait a minute…” going for a drive.

correction

Monday, July 3rd, 2006

i guess it’s not that i have nothing to say. i think it’s more that i shy away from saying it. after all, who would i say it to? it gets old, talking like this all the time don’t talk about it do it. but i guess the problem is… well, that quite simply, i [...]
