bottles of emotions...
I have this theory. We're all born with a limited amount of the range of human emotions all stacked in tiny glass bottles shimmering in some corner of the universe. Everytime we feel happiness, it takes a little bit from that bottle labeled happiness; everytime we feel …

through the looking glass...
"through the looking glass"
12.27.08
I haven't been taking many pictures lately and when I do go out, it's with the film cameras and not the 40d... but I'm going to be making an effort to get out more.

eHarmony, speed-dating, & other miracle cures...
Last year for Christmas, a friend of mine bought me a gift eHarmony account. Before this, the only thing I knew about eHarmony were those commercials. Those people look like hired models and I'm sure the fine-print reads "Actual results may vary." I'm probably just a …

2009 resolutions...
My probably-futile-but-somewhat-valiant-attempt-at-change-for-2009.
Here are the resolutions.
1. Quit smoking crack cigarettes.
I made attempts this year, but it didn't happen. It's quite a difficult thing to do when you work 60+ hours a week with deadlines that hang …
Gasoline
The only thing I remembered was the way Jefferson Tate's eyes looked when he pushed me onto the bed. His eyes were filled with burning gasoline as I looked directly into them. I could see the gas and fire slosh back and forth inside his cornea. I screamed and kicked but …

breathing...
The air is thick. It's like liquid sandpaper against my lungs. There doesn't seem to be enough oxygen in the atmosphere to fill me up. Breathing seems like such an effort. The concentration breaks me right in the middle, where everything begins.
One day I'll remember to …
Sexually transmitted skills...
About 90% of the overheards in NY are ridiculous. Another 9% is hysterical... but that remaining 1% is simply genius. It just makes me awe in amazement at the incredible thought process of some people.
Case in point:
Dude #1: How come when you have sex bad things happen, …
Becoming Uncle... again.
G__ and E__c_ told me today that they were thinking about naming the new baby Kingston Adini (pronounced add-in-eye)... I guess it's better than the previous choice, Heinrich Sebsatian.
Orchids (v2)
Incendiary blue--
and the orchids were dressed perfect for the winter.
I scratched an echo of a world into that stem
and she scratched the fabric into her mouth,
a dead flower on her tongue--
Seeds filled the air between us
by the time she crossed the street.
I could still …

Slow dancing during the commercial break.
I've come to the realization that I'm homesick for a place that doesn't exist. I don't think I can ever feel comfortable here, in this space and in this time. Maybe I was born too early or perhaps, too late. Maybe this skin wraps too tight across my bones and these …

Rook + orbital piercings and muse.
Got my rook and orbital piercing on Monday (8/27). Rather impulsive on my part... I wasn't even thinking about another piercing on Saturday.
And it brought back all types of memories of Abigail and I. I'm not exactly sure how the thought process happened... perhaps, …

on time & space...
Moving is about discovering all these parts of me that I've forgotten.
Today, deep in my closet, I found all my college writings--the psychology essays, the poetry, the short stories, the memoir. I didn't force my eyes through every single line of drivel, depression, and …

falling gently off the cliff...
There's this stack of old memories in this corner of my brain, like that box of yellowing corner-frayed photographs that sits in the forgotten corner of your attic. You know the one - you won't get near it because there's spiderwebs woven in intricate patterns all over …
