About Me

I'm in to the fundamentals: what's hard and important about having relationships with others. what's hard and important about being alone. what makes me feel alive, what makes me feel stuck, what heartache is an unforeseeable part of it all, and what can be avoided, how do i lose and gain my sense of impowerment (so easily), what is so comforting about "waiting for my life to start" why is it so scary to think that it's all right now and every moment is passing. how many rhetorical questions can I ask without seeming rude or self-centered?I love a good laugh, I love a good outfit, rockin' roll, sunglasses, and a good show. I love (and long) to be moved by art, conversation, circumsances, or extraordinary people. I have some amazing friends and family. i live with my sister and niece for a living...(mary poppins style), we are a pod. I couldn't ask for a more perfectally challenging life. I love you, and goodnight. Home | Browse | Search | Invite | Film | Mail | Blog | Favorites | Forum | Groups | Events | Videos | Music | Comedy | Classifieds

life with a red vintage umbrella

I hate to be another person who claims that the weather is getting me down. And I know that it's more than that, but how different I would feel, how my aches would softly transform...

Fine. How are you?

  A lot of the time I say "Im doing well" when it would be more accurate to say, "Im not really paying any attention to how I am, but I havent gotten any really, really bad news.  I do have,...

danger for the right reasons

Aimless isn't the right word anymore.  Neither is focused.  I want to get something done, and not just so I can have some new accomplishment under my belt or a story to tell.  Not so I ...

keeping it together

I've felt aimless the last few days. things moving and passing through thick distorted old man glasses;  and not really in a fun sort of stoned way either. But disconnected from the focused ...

diary

It's my last day in Portland.  I leave at 6:30 in the morning.  It's weird to think that this time tomorrow I'll be sitting in my dad's truck on my way back to the house I grew up in.  ...

Sometimes: Three thoughts

sometimes when we make art or music out of our growing pains, our hard and raw material, it lifts us up a little bit because we can't feel too sorry for our selves when we're responsible for something...

It's always so easy

heavy hearted. I am not invincible although it's times like this that I wish sadness was always something beautiful.  and it's times like this that I'm glad I don't get wishes or else I woul...
