About Me:
Moments rise and dissolve at an alarming frequency these days. I
find solace in the every day and shelter in the prophetic. My
roommate is reading Proust, which is an eight or nine volume set,
and it follows the author's entire life. When we go to parties,
everyone is surprised that we live together. I guess I tend to focus
in public on how we are similar and in our house how we are
different.

North Carolina has been set in traction for the past three days
under the weight of three inches of snow, topped of by a think layer
of ice. The snow has offered the world a blank canvas for all to
project their discombolated, cabin fevered thoughts. Intensely
pure, moments, people and places collide and then quickly
subside.
*****************************************************************
I walked across the campus of the university I used to attend,
thinking about it all this morning. It seems like once you get stuck
in a moment, it posseses you. It's all about momentum. It's all
about dislodging oneself from potential ruts before they pull you
under. It's about blind faith and not fearing the unknown.
*****************************************************************
I've never been good with the future. I've been pretty preoccupied
with the past, but I'm learning quickly to start looking where I leap. I
kind of imagine the future now as an empty house. What was
before daunting and overwhelming-- the eery echoes and
cavernous ceilings, unfilled and unlived-- I now view as emptiness
filled with potential, empowered with potential beyond what can be
imagined.

We strolled down the center of the streets whose black naked surface
absorbed the heat of the warm streetlights. In contrast, every other

Who I Want to Meet:
Someone who has a story to share and a desire to hear one
returned. The ability to articulate thought, feeling and experience
helps in bridging understanding too, but, as roommate says,
"Shrug." and I have said recently, "Whatev." I'm not that particular.
Being alone satisfies me fine anyway. Oh and meeting people
who I have met before and have forgotten and have the same
exact birthday as I is pretty killer also.

a hip play written and directed by a
newcomer from Portland. They secured
the two leading roles as Boy and Girl,
but soon decided that the parts did not
allow them to demonstrate their full
range of theatrical capabilities. They
left the show after the opening night,
despite rave reviews by otherwise
apathetic critics. Greg went on to
become a respected insect massage
therapist in Budapest and Amy moved to
Kiev where she currently breeds and
trains rare Ukrainian show dogs.
Thankfully, they still exchange
typewritten letters across Eurasia.

eighties revisionism meets the
contemporary in-your-faceness of all
these goddamned zeros: pensive
and sensitive (as Margaret so
eloquently puts it) TO THE
EXTREME! but then there are late
night biscuits and all ills melt away
with the butter.
