This morning, I popped into a corner market for a cup of coffee. I go to this place all the time and the old man behind the counter and I chat about the surfacey things in our lives. He told me that when he was collecting change in a small jar on the counter to [...]
I shit you negative, the following has occurred in the last few days:
INJURY ONE: I was helping a friend remove wallpaper and personally witnessed her accidentally slice, nay, chop her wrist open and bleed like a motherfucker this weird purple blood. She giggled like a maniac and insisted she was “fine fine fine don’t let [...]

“THERE IS A LIGHT THAT NEVER GOES OUT”
In the Master’s Thesis I will someday write, I want to explore the value placed upon symbols in various cultures, particularly in a spiritual or protective sense (evil eye, hamsa, hex symbols, etc.) and, and, and, how these values sort of get passed along from generation to generation [...]

How is anyone expected to listen to Balkan Beat Box and not dance? And, while we’re on the subject of Bands I Enjoy, I’ve been rockin’ out to Gogol Bordello a bit lately, too. Now, the super-duper thing that I realized is that Balkan Beat Box links to Gogol Bordello on their website, yes, yes, [...]
Chag Pesach! The seder was lovely tonight and I’m minutes from falling asleep, terribly happy and stuffed with delicious food and delicious wine. But it’ll be my birthday in a matter of hours, so I had to stop by and write a bit. It’s funny, I hear people complaining about aging and it makes me [...]

“Adipocere (grave wax) forms in fatty regions of the decomposing body including the cheeks. Grave wax is a crumbly white, waxy substance that accumulates on those [...]

Wearing the ridiculous shower cap thing to color a section of my hair this evening made me realize that I’d look okay as a surgeon. Tis a shame I have such little interest in such a pursuit– I can’t even get a flu shot without fainting! Pathetic, isn’t it? Yes. Pathetic, but true. I am [...]
Oh man. I just had the worst nightmare. It was one of the worst kind, too, where I wake up thinking someone is in the apartment but my glasses are out of reach and it’s far too dark to see much of anything anyway. I kept still in the dark for a few moments before [...]
