What an inquisitive little fellow.



Sometimes I like it when people use the word "feelers" instead of "antennae."

The kitchen window is open because the weather is nice and I can use a break from air conditioning. While walking into the bathroom I thought that it would be bad were someone to climb through the window and steal my laptop. I'm at ground level. I closed the door behind me and the first thing I spotted was a can of shaving gel. I thought, “if I step out of the bathroom and catch someone on this side of the window, I'll shoot them with that shaving gel!” Then I remembered what shaving gel does right out of the can. Thankfully, I'm still the only one here.

Hello. I'm playing music again.

 LISTEN IN










Butch, my older brother's friend and next-door neighbor, dropped by a couple of evenings ago. He was sleepy and amidst incapacitating back pain.

Me: Hey, want some coffee?
Butch: No. Who cares.
Me: What the fuck are you talking about?
[laughter]



Stoned friend: So you guys DJ? What do you do exactly?
Me: Play music. lolz.



Jo: Maybe next year I will take a TEFL course to teach English.
Me: You should take a TEFLON course, too. That way you'll be like Teflon and they'll be like glue. Their words will stick to them and non-stick to you.

friday morning the beach was cold and nearly deserted. storm clouds appeared on the horizon, sheets of rain fell beneath them.

it definitely felt like the end of something.

by the time the rain actually did reach shore, we'd stuffed everything back in the land rover and were brushing sand off our legs. someone said something about going to the ikea in new haven. before i knew it, we were there.

despite the salty, delicious meatballs in the cafeteria, ikea makes me dizzy. all that cheap furniture, all those people buying it. what looks good under the lights quickly gives you a headache when you get home and have to put it together.

i don't always understand the directions.

but we just got napkins there. napkins, an $18 lamp and some meatballs.

take your mind off your troubles.
