I was writing something else and this came out. It didn't belong so I cut it but I don't want to kill it yet. So it goes here for now.

I was just wondering why Expressionism has had a few blips in the American creative world but hasn't had the huge impact it did in Europe. But we like our comedies so much that I'm not sure that we just don't ( Read more... )

I hardly ever do updates anymore. And it's funny how the weekend didn't feel like it was this interesting as it happened, probably because this is my "work." But now that I'm home and can process I have a lot of thoughts crashing into each other. Gotta get them down somewhere.

Like a mirage, a dashing hallucination out of the corner of my eye when I haven't slept in too long and reality slips and I can see the seams of the world, I saw her bare.  The woman and the man, the true human.  Not a story about someone, not a presentation, but the Real Thing ( Read more... )

Writing over here on a subject somewhat vague but inspired by a facebook post that I don't want to address directly or much get its author's attention. How petty, right? Yeah.

OOps. Today didn't go at all as planned. And in the end I don't even know what to write for the 100 challenge. Uh... Fiction? Nothing is coming... Observations? Err like...? Studies...of what ( Read more... )

( Lots of barf metaphors when I'm talking about my mindscape )

As a prelude to developing a cold this week I had a moderate sinus headache that lasted over two days. Now, I don't go whole hog for drugs, but I do think chemistry has helped man in general and me in particular live better lives*. Still, this time around it wasn't until day two that I finally took some Tylenol ( Read more... )

I posted this on Amanda Palmer's blog and forgot about it for a while. But I reread it and realized I want to hold onto it and this is the best archive I've got. So it's not exactly a blog post because it's actually a very long comment. When I have time (or something) I'll come back and mine for the points I made and do something a little more ( Read more... )
