I just watched Warrior,
and the following things need to be said (right now, by me, not in general or for the good of the world or anything, but just so I can go on my own personal record as having said them, that record being tumblr, where I tend to record things, for the record):
1. HOLY SHIT TOM HARDY YOUR TRAPS ARE OUT OF CONTROL. YOUR TRAPS ARE TALLER THAN MY DICK. YOU HAVE 9” TRAPEZIUS MUSCLES AND I WANT TO...

Apparently I quit smoking a few hours ago.
Woke up, confused and sweaty, around 1:30am.
My brother stuck his head in, informed me, “There are several people out here who would like to bum a cigarette from you.”
“Don’t have any,” I replied, licking the front of my teeth to unglue them from my gums. “I think I quit.”
“Since when?”
“Now? Right now. I quit right now.”

I think it was still 2008 when I first thought of writing this thing. Shit, I don’t even know if I thought of it. Might have been her. She liked writers, right? and that is, for better or worse, what I do. I’m not great and the only time I’ve seen my work in print is when I’ve printed it, but if you give me a cup of coffee and some spare time I will invariably make my way to a keyboard or...

I can't help it.
I just think unguent is the best/worst word in the entire English language.
Does it not raise the hackles on your nape every time it slides across your earholes?
“Come, Alvin. Spread some of this soothing unguent on my lesion.”
“Nurse! Nurse, where is the unguent? This woman is horribly abraded!”
“Apply the pungent unguent to the lesser burns. It’s all we...

Christmas talk.
Stacey: You and Adam gonna do anything tomorrow?
Justin: Not that I know of. Maybe watch a movie. Kill a hobo. Something like that.
Stacey: Light a fire. Light the dead hobo on fire. Etc.
Justin: Well yeah. So other hobos don't get cold. Or go hungry. We're very giving.
Stacey: I've always said that. "Those Valmassois are givers."
Justin: Everyone at the clinic says so too.
Stacey: *bah dum tsss*
Justin: "I'll be here all week. No autographs."
Stacey: "Try the veal and tip your server."

Raise the grey flags. Ink the trenchant ballads.
I just found out the Chaldean gal I used to run with back in my Windsor warriors days is dead. Hyacinth blues. Too many of my old friends go out that way.
Not even recent, Fatima’s grand exit. Happened earlier this year, I guess. Nobody tells me anything. They have other priorities, I suppose. A horse to ride. Things like that.
And I can’t do much now except tell a story, which is...

Stacey: How's 'The Thing' night?

Thought bits:
I like thinking. I really do.
I used to own a couple of smoke-filled, noisy coffeeshops full of proto-hipsters and indie rock, one of which was 24 hours (the other was open 20 out of 24), and on the horrid mornings when I would work the “early” shift of 9am-9pm the first thing I would do, provided I had made it all the way up from the basement I was living in (which if you’ve...

“Do you ever get the feeling that everything in America is completely fucked up? You know that feeling that the whole country is like, one inch away from saying ‘That’s it, forget it!’ Think about it. Everything is polluted. The environment, the government, the schools … you name it.
Speaking of schools, I was walking the hallowed halls the other day and I asked...
