About Me

I used to daydream about my local weatherman when I was 13 and I often wonder what could have been if I'd just kept wishing. I forget what a barometer is but it sure meant something to me back then. I'm also pretty good at sleeping. Are you an intellectual? I'm not. Here are things I know to be true: most vintage t-shirts are not actually vintage, sometimes porno pop-ups are kind of fun and, mostly, nostalgia gives me a strong sense of self. Lastly, if you insist on drinking alcoholic beverages at the edge of a dense forest late at night, make sure you are enclosed in a fenced-in tennis cage. It's highly unlikely the Blair Witch can attack you there- she's just not athletic enough.

My Blog

Haven't done the blog thing in a while. Then again, I haven't had a whole lot of fun in a while. Does that warrant a blog? I forgot my camera at my mom's house on the Cape so I felt out of place not h...

como se dice?

I just got back from Costa Rica. I know this doesn't trump the spawning of Brangelina but it's my blog and I can write what I want. Anyway, the country was pretty sweet. I didn't leave the city really...

celebrities! Iraq!

[UPDATE] Can anyone verify the break-up of TomKat?   Okay, I don't think the first installment of my play was very good. Any suggestions? I'm still bored, and yes, still unemployed.   CAST:...

A tent story
