Tonight I had so much to write, so much to write.

But it all boils down to this.

Do not pay attention to an artist who purports to have accomplished what they intended, who seems to have their shit together, because they are irreflective of life.

Tomorrow I'll tighten the toilet paper holder with my new needlenose pliers. I could use some groceries too. That'll make things better. "Make what better?" Who asked you to ask questions? My work-day starts at 10 instead of 9. I'll find breakfast outside, or eat an unripe peach. My laundry is done so I'll have lots of choices. Gas is an issue for ( Read more... )

Remember last year when I saw that DeLorean?

It's Saturday night in the big city. What will I do?
