i’m moving without moving while the world behind me is falling apart. each evening seems more like the last.

@balthazar with greasy hair and dirty blck clothes i eat some lamb. dinner is over. we leave a tip. the economy is failing. the party is over.

today, i interview 3 of the ten members of straight no chaser – randy, ryan, and walter.   the interview goes great.  because they’re all great guys.  later i am working at my desk listening to peter kernel.  and even later i am revising something i’ve been working on since i was thirteen.   all this takes time. i remember, i remember, i remember everything.

at work, people play beer bong.  then flip cup.  while blasting hip-hop.  deciding to leave  i am leaving ridding in a cab sneering, kind of like iggy pop in that teddybears music video.

halloween is an exceptional day and things look funny because of it. people have more reasons to talk to each other, to smile, and to enjoy all this commonplace stuff.
