ugly bullets

I know it’s a little weird, and it may be uninformed, but I can’t help this warm feeling I get when I think about the bullet shortage.

The weather is terrible in Boston, but I still went for a run through the fells yesterday. It’s such a complicated set of trails, and I’ve so far been [...]

happiness is a free MP3 download

there’s a happy memory and a bittersweet memory encased in a synth-pop shell on display now in the listening room.

the future

I went on the long road to jamaica plain last night, to visit with my friend Kristen, who has been painting pop culture chickens for the last few months. She has a new cat, Iggy, and all night I enjoyed Iggy’s tiny tiny teeth on my leathery fingers.
Today I am a wasteland, a carbon field, [...]

tour tour tour - i confuse myself

as strange as it is that I’ve gone so long without it, you might be surprised to find that we’ve finally made my journal archives available. We’re still tweaking the presentation, but you can visit them now if you like.

running from trouble

My friend Pascal has been running in his journal a lot. He may feel that running in such a public manner will keep him accountable for his training progress. In what way are you keeping me accountable, I ask you? I haven’t made you any promises, I hope. If I have, please accept my apologies [...]

sadness and smartypants

Even though the sun is shining today I feel blue. I had the blues last night, too, and I called my friend Jon who’s visiting from Madison. I was only expecting to go over plans for the weekend, but he was in the mood for vegan cake (and I’m always interested in that), so we [...]
