Reading the new Chuck Klosterman book finally, entitled Killing Yourself to Live. It's generally good, except when I disagree with him vehemently (the one mention of Joy Division is deprecatory, which turns into a dis on New Order as well...I often disagree with Chuck, but I usually agree to disagree. Those few sentences made me want to hit him).
But this, a mere footnote, was...

It seems sometimes as though I live in twilight.
I hung on that windy tree for nine nights wounded by my own spear.
I hung to that tree, and no one knows where it is rooted.
None gave me food. None gave me drink. Into the abyss I stared
until I spied the runes. I seized them up, and, howling, fell.

NPR's Speaking of Faith has been such an incredible ally in life these past couple of years. I say this having just listened to today's program, which discussed the value of stories and mystery over fact (& how important these truly are to people) and how we deal with loss (including the idea that we should look at loss as a step, not a conclusion,...

Blah blah blah.
Everything's ok. Which means it's all quite boring. What is momentarily dramatic, world-shaking, becomes background scenery.
Not that I don't keep wondering "why are these people my friends"? There are reasons, I just wish most of them would remind me more often.
I really, really, really hate when it first gets cold but the heat's not yet on in the apartment.

I hate it when it's still hot, but clearly it shouldn't be seeing as it's October and the air isn't on anymore.

Spent the weekend cocooning. Right now everyone I know to any real degree annoys, feels distrant from, or has flat out angered me (or some combination thereof), so I just avoided the lot of them. Introspection. Lots of reading.
Neil Gaiman's latest was good, but vaguely disappointing.
The punches keep on coming. Your anger is a gift.
Fall is here, and it feels like...

Strange day. Skipped my lecture class at 1:30, proceeded to bump into that very professor at 4 during a ciggy run. No idea if he knew I wasn't there, awkward anyway.
Out of my night class early again; apparently I have some kind...

Being back at fucking school fucking sucks.
But it's also nice to have goals for one's days beyond waking up before 4 PM.
Changes. Boredom. I should be reading Machiavelli, but I don't want to.
It's been too long since I've thrown beer bottles and insults at the St. Thomas crew team.
