Frustration You Can Believe In |
You don't have any idea how dangerously close I am to puncturing my eardrums with this pen. The one time I find myself at a coffee shop without my laptop happens to also be the one time I should not ... Posted by Slade Ham on Fri, 24 Oct 2008 02:24:00 PST |
This Is Morning |
It's 6am on a Saturday. Apparently jet lag has hit me for the first time. I think I might have been awake a total of four hours yesterday. I fell asleep for good around 7 or 8 last night, and just wo... Posted by Slade Ham on Sat, 18 Oct 2008 05:30:00 PST |
Iraq Part 2 |
I've tried. Several times actually. I've tried to figure out a way to put the last week or so into words, and every time I do I end up deleting it. I'm not deleting this attempt I've decided. When I ... Posted by Slade Ham on Thu, 16 Oct 2008 09:02:00 PST |
Iraq Part 1 |
Rarely do I know so little beforehand about what to expect from a trip. I've left the States enough times now that I don't even think about it the night before. I know what to expect& a d... Posted by Slade Ham on Thu, 09 Oct 2008 01:33:00 PST |
The Universe Has Spoken Pt. 2 |
I am so behind on my creative output lately. I leave for the Middle East this weekend, and I know I'll find plenty to write about while I'm there. Still, I thought I should do something a little more... Posted by Slade Ham on Wed, 01 Oct 2008 02:31:00 PST |
I Don’t Know Any Other Way to Put It... |

Free Association 2 |
I have rewritten this sentence no less than twenty times. Not the same sentence over an over, but a new sentence to replace the one I deleted. I have writer's block. It's the reason I haven't posted ... Posted by Slade Ham on Mon, 22 Sep 2008 01:58:00 PST |
See Slade. See Slade Run. Sort Of. |
I think it's hilarious that most people think that my quitting smoking is the setup for some soon to follow punch line. It's not. I promise. The thing is, while I choose to not be a smoker anymore, I... Posted by Slade Ham on Wed, 10 Sep 2008 01:03:00 PST |
Marble |
"The marble not yet carved can hold the form of every thought the greatest artist has." - Michelangelo
It's one of the brilliant realizations that we've come to as people. The awareness that from not... Posted by Slade Ham on Thu, 04 Sep 2008 11:26:00 PST |
Organizationalism |
It's amazing that I don't do drugs. Sometimes I have to stop and replay some of my days to make sure that I didn't. Apparently my mind works in it's normal state the way some people function when the... Posted by Slade Ham on Mon, 18 Aug 2008 06:07:00 PST |
