I’m Thinking Of…
My friend who lost his dad… He was only 60 years old. An alcoholic, but a good guy. And his mom died years ago. Now my friend doesn’t have *any* parents. What’s that like at 29? I mean, my MOM still has a mother. Yeah, she has Alzheimer’s and is in the hospital right now. But [...]

I stole this idea from http://simmonssays.wordpress.com/2008/05/21/writing-exercise/. I’ll totes give her credit.
I’m looking at 30. Yeah, that’s right. I’m getting fucking old. One of those legendary stories growing up was how, at the age of 3 or 4, I said that Madonna should retire from being a singer because she was 30. Because she was ancient. [...]
Misspent Youth
When I was younger, I got in a lot of trouble. As a very little kid, I had trouble with my emotions. I would get really, really upset and angry and lash out at people—family, friends, teachers. I llwould, essentially, “flip out.”
As I got older, I learned to stifle my outbursts a bit, [...]
Freewriting from Atlanta
I shoulda gone to the gym this morning. Instead I chose to sleep. Last night was super duper fun. That’s right–super duper! We ate. We drank. We played cards. I won.
The restaurant we went to last night was called Eclipse di Luna. Great for tapas.
I feel like these freewrites are a broken record, but as I [...]
ATL: Day 1
The first day in Atlanta was a success. Our fight was fine. We made it to the hotel in time. We got a portion of the booth set up. Had a great dinner at La Tavola. Lasagna was the special tonight and I had a half order of it with a half order of the [...]

I stayed in last night. Finished packing, went to bed early. Then my cousin called and wanted me to come out. I don’t get to hang out with him much, but I was being good… then he kept calling. So I went out. At midnight. The night before I had to leave. Ugh.
Pretty fun time. [...]
Saturday freewrite
Unfortunately, I’ve been up for over an hour already, but still haven’t managed to get anything done. And I have TONS of shit to do.
Last night was fun. Work peeps. Regular peeps. Friends. Friends of friends. I didn’t do as good of a job “connecting” as I’d hoped, but-hey- I had a good time.
Except next [...]
So Fucking What?
In addition to being a *super cool* Gen X movie starring Steven Dorff, “So fucking what” sums up how I’ve been feeling lately.
See, I’ve been going through this “phase” of self-reflection. Whether or not it is tied to my need to start a blog remains to be seen. But, here’s the thing: I [...]
Freewriting, part 2
Well, I guess we’ll try this again. I had two ideas for blogs yesterday. One was my theory on Tuesdays, which is no longer timely (but look for it next week!) and the other I can’t remember… I’ve been racking my brains to try to come up with it. No luck.
So, today is [...]
Walking for Beers
So, today was shit-tastic at work. I don’t even want to go into specifics, but basically I got thrown under a buss by a co-worker. Same co-worker that always throws me under the bus, so I don’t know why I was so surprised. I’m totally sick of this job. I need something different.
I had planned [...]
