I'm normally pretty content to spend a Saturday staying in but tonight, I've got a wicked case of cabin fever.

I been driving around the city trying to find ways to placate the restlessness, but it hasn't worked.

So I'm online now and I want to go somewhere...but I don't see much going on.

This kind of thing will happen all winter I...

I went to Annabell's last night and ended up sitting next to some obnoxious loudmouth who kept insisting that I answer her cell phone whenever it rang. Then she started talking about her one co-workers gastrointestinal problems. It was bizarre...I had just sat down next to her. Then she wanted to hook me up with a friend of hers that was coming.

I didn't stay...

I know that the night is not the same as the day: that all things are different, that the things of the night cannot be explained in the day, because they do not then exist, and the night can be a dreadful time for lonely people once their lonliness has started.....If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them...

There was an accident right in front of my house on Sunday afternoon. It was a car and two motorcycles that collided. I pulled in about two minutes after it happened. A crowd had collected by that time (whenever a small crowd gathers on the sidewalk in a small city, it's never good). I didn't go too close, but the two cyclists were on the...

I just pulled out an old Bosstones...

Most seasons in the Great Lakes area are pretty extreme. In summer it's miserably humid and in the winter it's balls cold and it snows like a bastard. In spring, it tends to rain a lot, but it doesn't matter because autumn in the Midwest makes up for the shortcomings of the other three seasons.

It's getting on toward the end of september and the...

Jesus, what happened to the summer? It's fuckin' September already.

I broke down and bought a PS2 last weekend. I have been glued to the thing ever since. If video games were drugs, Grand Theft Auto would be crack....

The Song of the Mischievous Dog
by Dylan Thomas

There are many who say that a dog has its day,
And a cat has a number of lives;
There are others who think that a lobster is pink,
And that bees never work in their hives.
There are fewer of course, who insist that a horse
Has a horn and two humps on its head,...

Whoo hooo blackout!

The power outage the other day kind of messed everything up around town. I was supposed to go to court today to pay fines and get chastised by a judgely figure for acting like a real jackass a couple of weeks ago. But they had to postpone it to next Friday because power and water were still down.

It would have been...
