[Wouldn’t it be nice]Graduation was fun. Partying was fun. Unfortunately I was a little too inebriated to grab the camera and start annoying people with its stark flashes. I have a feeling that most of my pictures would have been of Joey on the floor, laughing. Or of him hitting on the kid with the wispy bangs. The money shot, however, would have been of Project Pat lying in the shattered glass coffee table. Party…

[Bristling and ugly]My sleep was littered with bad dreams. One involved John Cusack at the center of what would have made a disturbing psychological horror flick. With torture! A tortured child, no less, lying in bed with dead bodies and entrails hanging from the ceiling above him. I’m not sure if John Cusack was the good guy or the bad guy, but that seems like the kind of role he would play these days. In…

[Run your lips across your fingers ’til you find some scent of yourself]I worked a day shift today, and got off in time to watch the sun set in my rearviewmirror (tm Pearl Jam). I wasted my evening but at least it was mine to waste. I’ve started reading some book about women’s bodies as creative fruit-baring vessels with a reservoir of stuff to write about. It’s a little corny; the fruit metaphor wears dangerously…

[Soft silly music is meaningful, magical]I was bad today at the bookstore. I went in to get my mom Eats, Shoots & Leaves for Mother’s Day but came out with a book for my nephew Casey, a book for Amber, my mom’s book, and three for myself. I blame Davis-Kidd for putting out so many shelves in the ridiculously perfect sunshine hand hanging big “bargain book sale” signs all over the place. A clever ploy,…

[Nature is neither kind nor cruel but indifferent]This image from Salon and all its blasphemy cracks me up. It’s the art for an interview with the posterboy for atheism, Richard Dawkins. I don’t share his feeling that agnosticism is a weak stance, and I don’t buy that just because there’s no evidence for a god means that there’s no god, but I thought he said something interesting and poignant nonetheless: “An astronomically overwhelming majority of…

[Slow night, so long]So while I was away, the Grizzlies showed how much they suck and the President went around holding some dude‘s hand all day. Oh well. Oh, and there’s a big music festival going on right now, but it’s rainy and I have to work, so it’s almost like it’s not going on at all. Except for the traffic and the gas stations running out of receipt paper and closing early. I’ve been…

[Comfortably numb]Another week, gone. It was a hectic one. I had a lot on my plate several nights. Last night I designed three sections. Two nights ago I handled DeSoto and Metro, and the lead Metro story changed four times, which meant I had to play musical newshole with my design. I spent the whole night literally on the edge of my chair, swallowing lumps of backed up adrenaline caught in my throat. Mmmm, deadlines.…
