Hey, BANJO. Where you goin’ with that gun in yo’ hand?

you’ll shoot your eye out, kid

(Typical 24 hours of A Christmas Story. My dad loves this.)

I guess my recent Clintonisms posts are just a cheap trick trade in for a little motivation, you know? I really do want to be regular, here, because successful blogs are updated; and at this point, this blog is pretty unsuccessful. I don’t even say anything, but who really wants to read some not-even-twenty-something’s pathetic rambling about her hometown and current angst, anyway? Those things belong in a real diary or on post secret post cards. I just try to make my life look funnier than it actually is. Pretty sad.

I’m too concise for proper blogging, anyway–too vague. too boring. Jesus, how selfish can I be on Christmas Eve? Raving about my own shortcomings, I should be ashamed, and the fact that I’m already dreading the mass “**MeRrY ChRiStMaS**” texts people like to send… Who am I to judge those up-and-down characters and extra asterisks? I don’t even deserve those. Surely they’ll realize it this year. All I do is look for distractions. I might just delete everything I’ve typed until now and leave that last sentence. Sometimes it takes a solid hour of obsessive typing to realize what’s been eating you alive for months.

Happy Christmas, Harry! I hope I can shake the weirdness in my brain.

FUMBLE (v.) to knock an object (or multiple objects) off a desk or out of the arms of another person, followed by shouting “FUMBLE,” and walking away. Commonly associated with turning a backpack inside out, replacing the contents and zipping it up quickly so the owner has to shamefully carry his newly cocooned bag to his next class.

Clinton breeds jerks.?

blog y’all

Got a large plastic cup in hand, somehow comforting when filled with good ice, not from my refrigerator, and cold Christmas coke. I wish I had more to say. The curse of the concise.

It’s a beard tote kind of day, gotta tune that ukulele and make some music.

the sickness

I think too much when I’m sick.

“I am a tree!” the ember keeps whispering to itself.

a series

of good nights. Late nights with the most energizing of folks, long lost folks. and johnny bertram. and the girl with the stand up bass. I want to be her. rain, annoying rain and the glimmering streets, the way smoke lingers and the laughing. Jesus, I love this community.
