This day in history is really of no consequence to anyone. As one grain of sand in the desert sprawl of time, this day is just another dry reminder that we are not really present here for long. I feel the tears rush up for all those that close their eyes for the last time […]
I started watching TV again. I finished an essay draft but then felt guilty today for not producing the same result. I started knitting, realized that I was making it a task, and slumped back to watch a marathon of Mythbusters. Go figure.But I have found a couple of interesting articles that are making me […]
It’s December 1st and I am sitting here quite amazed at the NaNo novel I just punched out of myself. 50,252 words according to the NaNo counter, 50,039 according to mine [I prefer the former]. It’s the end of our 4 day break and it feels like nothing – but it was fun nothing, so […]
Believe me, we are not created equal.On this stepped territory, with the wind rushing through our hair, there’s not a shred of doubt that misery befell us once before – and now again. Just let it wash over your skin and caress it like a shadow’s past. I am unspoken, still deceitful, unforgiven. Box me […]
As I have said multiple times before: I want college.Maybe if I say it enough times it’ll come faster. However, in the present moment the first few weeks of high school have petered into nearly a month of the same scholastic opportunities as last year. I am feeling less stressed but also more bored as […]
As a writer, I am constantly filling up pages and pages and files and files and scraps and scraps of notes, poems, memories, paragraphs and stories. I guess I don’t think about it too much at the time, because I always feel that there is something propelling me forward into the next sentence or the […]
Alright, I admit it. I’ve gone completely insane.I was walking around Bumbershoot with Ka-chan yesterday and [instead of just looking in wonder at the peoples’ amazing crafts for sale] I started thinking. I thought about all the ways that I might do some of these things myself – with stuff we just have lying around […]
I have arrived home after a week and a half of our two-person crazy fest. Shouting/taking pictures/watching Current TV/dancing/clashing over musical tastes/changing clothes 50 bajillion times/talking until late hours about everything – that was the vacation time. I think we got a little bit on each other’s nerves, but that’s probably because I’m more surly […]
Heathy and I have been palling around the mud huts for days now, and it is quite entertaining and also quite infuriating. Mainly because of things that are out of our control. Like money, trains, and clothing sizes.It’s interesting to be here, in the same house [which has been vastly improved, I would say, cleanliness-wise] […]
Though it is unnecessary to explain what the above title means, I thought I’d acknowledge that Heathy and I are crazy enough to want to take cows all the way back to New York. It might work… ya never know.I should probably be working on things, but something about the contagious ‘it is summer’ attitude […]
