Camping. A crazy mumbled song that comes humming out. Attract the attention of cats so that they step softly onto the bed and turn in circles, then lie down. In the afternoon, I threw the heavy blanket up over me and was instantly in a tent. Inside, I felt the twinge of tiny acupuncturist needle…… Continue reading Untitled

Man, I had to break down and write my family for financial support. I hope they don’t fucking lose it. More importantly, I hope they cough up the goods! Support Our Troops! blah blah. Support your sons and daughters out of work, if you’re able.

Again, Hollins. Sled tracks and footprints up and down the hill in front of me. The panoramic view the architecture provides is beautiful, the woods that roll over the slopes. I am alone with my thoughts and aware of that. I do very little to run from them and the depression sometimes grabs and shakes…… Continue reading Untitled

Struggle and worry. Moving around. The fingers almost tell me they don’t want to write out a single word. I say back to them we all have our bad days. And good days, too. This one is about to begin.

While I get kind of annoyed sometimes, I’m so proud of Rudra and his antics. As I write this, he’s scrambling all over the house like a kitten. What a long way to come for anyone who has been hit by a car and lived to prance around after it.

Evergreens. Sing-song cell phones go off. They blast and echo, but when the students pick up, they whisper quietly. Respect…… Continue reading Untitled

Unemployment. Yeah, that’s not gonna work out. The woman basically says I have no chance of extension. Oh, for the love of God! We’re phucked. No choice now but to get some shitty job somewhere. “Since the economy is now back up, the Federal Government is not issuing any extensions.” Blah. Abrupt talker, that one.…… Continue reading Untitled

Calcium pills. Two recommended at night. Helps insomniac in me. Slept all these hours straight through. Has to be the pills. Wake up and thank the hell out of those pills. Pills, thank you for your goodness. Thank you for not being Antarctica, where in the summer it is 60ยบ below, where the ice is…… Continue reading Untitled

Fever. Insomnia from the fever. Up and moving about the kitchen to put on hot water for the black bean soup, to hear the snow melting, dripping, pelting. I am up to read more Watchmen. Up to write notes.
