One brand-new purple phone later...
--Have finished prepping "Pink Hairdryer In The Blue Bathtub", my portfolio piece for Rob's Borderland's course. Granted, it's not quite as fancy as some of that shit he pulled out from previous years, but I think the added soundtrack *featuring the likes of Billy Idol, Animal Collective, David Bowie, Incredible String Band, etc...* should give it a little more creedence (but not clearwater revival). The pieces are some of the strongest things I've written in ages. And it's quite a lot of fun to be messing around with the dichotomies of relationships, waking/dreaming life, and surrealism. If that doesn't make me sound like a pretentious creative writing major, then I'm hard pressed to know what will.

--Am heading off to the deep south AGAIN, as is my wont, to sup upon amazing BBQ, sweet tea, hushpuppies, etc...while soaking in the glories of Faulkner's house, Graceland, Robert Johnson's stomping grounds, Al Green's church (hallelujah!), and other assorted magical sites of interest. I'll be coming back fat as hell with grease food, probably scorched from the unrelenting sunshine, and ready to shake some shit up. P.S. Peabody Hotel with marching ducks? Yes, I think so. Check it: http://www.peabodymemphis.com/peabody_ducks/

--My last year approaches, with extensive writing, eating, viewing, listening, causing kerfufles and ruckuses everywhichwaybuthere. There's a bit of trepidation, as certain arrangements are still up in the air, being sorted, but I'm sure one way or another, every little nugget will find a home and set up camp properly. And if not, that's part of the fun...right? Sure it is. (Nevertheless, fingers mothafucking crossed.)

--Colloq was brillo.

--Made $1 at our mini-yard sale. Props to E-bear for raking in $50+.

I suppose I don't really have anything new or exciting to share. Things are pretty good overall, new friends, bright days, and excitement for the future.

P.s. I have been eating so much sushi. I want to eat it always now. Dangerous? Yes. But delicious.
