Right-o. I was just in England for two weeks. I went to see the Mute Short Circuit event — which, duh, was one of the highlights of my life — and see old friends and travel around and just soak in cask ale. All of the above was accomplished and felt wonderful. As you may […]

3170 miles / W through 34° 14′, S through 4° 32′ / 43 hours
I’m on my third day as a San Francisco resident. I thought about writing a thing before leaving, in the generic-life-update-for-a-blog category, but I figure the only people who look at this thing (well, who might look at it if it ever had anything new) are people who already knew I was moving to SF, […]
The power of a word
As soon as I said “interim”, the pieces fell into place. I swear, I nearly heard the clicking. I’ve said it before, and it never felt more true: nothing about me is ever true until I actually say it.
Getting older isn’t as confusing as getting older
[disjointed entry alert: sort of writing this one on assignment, as it may be] People have accused me of living in the past. This is simply not true — I just don’t appreciate the present until it’s become the past. I think it started when I was around 15. I have (had?) very few memories of […]
The Sorrows of Young Whatever
Everything ever said about the relativity of time — be it serious or jokey or wrong — is right. Short expanses of time can be unendurably long, long stretches of time can pass by without notice, and now lasts forever while the past and the future never existed and never could or will. I whiled […]
a hauntology of mine
my hauntological place is all over america, and probably all over the world. it is the edge of town, the edge of the suburbs, where they start to turn into the country, on a cool, humid, misty summer’s night, with everybody in their homes and most lights turned out, and stillness all around. i will […]
damn, it was a good day (micah’s end-of-the-quarter remix)
RIT has been whomping my ass this year, and i respectfully, gleefully, doff my hat to it and wish another academic year adieu (well, temporarily, as i’m taking summer classes). ergo, i awoke late today and had a great day. for two hours, i read the newest novel by my favourite author: good to be god […]
self-evident truths
hm, it is a pretty good ep, i suppose, but that’s not what we’re here to discuss. actually, wait — a self-evident truth is one that needs no proof, right? crap, guess that’s the wrong subject header for this post. well, er, maybe it’s half correct. some things are obvious to everyone else until they happen […]
let’s see…what’s new…
hmmm… tuesday night yoli and i went to toronto for the de/vision & seabound show. seabound kicked ass, as usual, and de/vision were MUCH better than when i saw them last spring in philly. opening act was glenn love, who was one of the shittiest EBM musicians i’ve seen in a very long time. this […]
100 things that make me happy
yoli and i did this last five years or so ago. forget how we came up with the idea, but the goal is to write 100 things that make you happy. the restraint i placed on myself regards music/film/etc. i.e. it’s a cop-out if i write all the bands i like, so i won’t. also, these […]
