Mind: a philosophy.

Since you’re here, you already know one place to find me in case the bird joint collapses. I won’t delete my account, but who knows what’s going to happen over there. Somehow, almost 3000 people still follow me for some reason, and I follow 2500 or so. I will miss everyone if things don’t work […]

I like live music, but no matter how hard I try, I can’t get to all of them. It’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon of sprints. There were so many shows that I missed. Thursday 9-29 – Shady Oaks Friday 9-30 – The Luka State – Micky James – Cousin Simple Saturday 10-1 – […]

It’s not like I’ve had nothing to write. I’ve written tons of notes on ideas that have come into my head since last we spoke. Great ideas, terrible, but great. In fact I read through a bunch the other week and decided to do a little hearts and flowers break. Things are getting to me […]

[rant] I don’t need things to be ‘the ultimate best’, and I’m sick of all the freaking ads for the best socks, the best shoes ever made, the ultimate knife sharpener, the most amazing OMG you just HAVE TO HAVE these ultimate microfiber underwear, jeans, t-shirts, every freaking stupid little thing.

One bottle of whiskey can last 4 days, 2 bottles can last 5. Spaghetti sauce works on pasta, ramen, squash, and pop tarts. Gin is a vitamin. Birthday […]
