Ramblings
I live in a house in Squirrel Hill w/ 6 others and one unofficial. 8 in total in this house. Hectic. Insane at times. Drunk. Now. Yes.
Too many things to talk about it's difficult to choose what.
Records are my life I love the hologram black grooves with a needle running through them so basic and easy to understand. Music comes from those lines. It exists inside them.
Nonfiction is what I write and what I will eventually be awarded a degree in (with luck).
I'm not concerned with the image this projects (a lie).
