Well it's over. Bye bye 20's. You were... interesting and a hell of a lot of fun. Now I guess I can start yelling at kids to get off my lawn, drinking prune juice, watching Matlock, and going to bed at 5:00 pm. Hello 30's. Let's get weird.

The wall has finally been hit. Full stop. Change or die. Yay?

I'm tired, so: Haven't really slept in about 24 hours. Went to work, got cut early so I could visit the hospital. Reintroduced myself to some people that I had known years ago. Learned new things about old friends. Put away some old anger, got a lot of love. Walked in the rain and then the music (linked below) hi-jacked my whole being. Put it...

You know what? Just be honest; With yourself, with other people, with all the exchanges in your life. It is a hard thing to do. It is difficult to cast aside another persons feelings in favor of truth. For some of us it's a personal trial to be the villain. We always want to promote goodwill and positive vibes, no matter how much we HATE...

Tempered to the point of sweet, sweet apathy. Hello Friday...hello? How can a such a loud rainy day be oh so silent? So rude as not to respond to such a simple greeting? Perhaps I am not saying the right things? Perhaps I've misjudged this particular set of hours as my friend? Indeed it would seem that this day, is in fact, an asshole.

Sweet Jeebus!!! A new Radeo set!! I am official having a good day. Also some good concerts coming up and personal fitness is getting on track. Man, Pilates is hard... but very good!

Very much in love with all this new music (30+ bands!!!) I just found. All down tempo, chill-out, shoegaze, trip-hop, instrumental hip-hop, and IDM. With all the stress, chaos, and pure fucking garbage going on lately I think this is just what I needed. Once again, music saves my little life

Special thanks to the wonderful folks in the SG Trip-Hop group. I can't wait...

The dream from last night: Getting high on magic incense with a Jamaican dude while listening to "Blue Lines" from Massive Attack. Time would periodically stop, like a freeze frame and the song would echo, the whole time I was high. Later in the dream a two piece band in white suits played "The Tourist" by Radiohead (my favorite Radiohead song). They were twin, red-headed,...

Just put one foot in front of the other. Walking away and moving forward are the same thing sometimes. Fire is a cleansing element. Not just the flames that lick your cancer sticks, spiral out of the sun, or reduce old lives/places/memories to ash. The fire in your heart. The heat of your dreams and desires. It is a frightening thing to embrace the burn...
