fWell, this is a new beginning for the good ole' blog. It's been several months since my last post, I know. This strange fucking world has a way of pulling me from the mundane, tward the hysterical. I'm not saying blogging is mundane. Just a bit stationary. The pleasure I get from blogging is mysterious to me. It could be the self-centered part of my ego, reaching out to let others "care" about me. Or it could be the self-satisfaction of creating a lasting piece of text that can (and will) float around in cyberspace for the rest of eternity. That's what we call the future folks, get fucking used to it. Time doesn't slow down. Time never hiccups. It continues indefinately with or without you. Deep.
Speaking of hysterical. Read This. Tell me what you think. It's the first story in a series I will be writing about the household. Possibly a television idea? Screen Play material? We'll see.
hIt's cold in Ohio. My hands are cold. My toes are cold. My circulation is insuficient (especially at 31 degrees). Ohio weather gets me down. 60 one day, 35 the bext. You can't make this shit up folks. Ohio is spinning the Wheel of Fortune and hit bankrupt. Bankrupt.
t Right now I'm listening to song number 8 (house of cards) on In Rainbows the new album from Radiohead. What makes the album different from others out there is Radiohead released it independently. This allows the band to charge whatever they want for it. Fans can purchase the album online or (now) in stores. I paid 6 dollars for mine. (fucking rightous).

Today it feels like it's 70 degrees outside. It's soooooo nice! The weather seems to be the spark that is bringing this place back to life. We were all frozen in the winter, now that our skin is thawing we're beginning to move again and become active (and happy). Already the terrible winter mood and attitude is starting to melt away. So of course I’m going to take this opportunity to go outside and read in the sun. “The Sun also Rises”, I think will be quite appropriate. Hemingway has always been my man, his themes and delivery just seem more interesting now that I’m in an academic atmosphere.
I need summer clothes again. My wardrobe gets additions twice a year, Christmas and springtime. I have to get ready for the beach this summer! Hopefully I’ll be surfing, smoking, drinking, partying, banding, bonding and relaxing all summer. I may even throw in a painting or two, who knows?


The Captain

"Now is the winter of our discontent" - William Shakespeare

This short line describes my life right now. It's winter, it's cold and I'm not content. Well, I cannot say that I'm discontent, in fact I'm very content with the majority of my life. Currently I am an English major at Kent State University in Ohio. Yes, the famous Kent State University, site of the National Guard tragedy in the early 70's. Being an English major, my time for social life construction is short. I figured this blog would give friends, family, endearing fans, access to my life through a format which is easy to read and understand. Blogging.
