yay for getting paid. i can eat again! fridge is now not-empty, and i paid my rent (a month late - i'm notorious in that office) and took care of a couple of other things that had been hanging over me like a cloud of doom for the last three weeks, and got myself a cheap reward or two for having sweated-out the last five...

Edited to tell you that you are such a chill dude, it would be so bizzarre to see a look of worry on your face. I think you take this lack of money thing WAY smoother than I would. Props, man, Props...

War and Peace...oh, wait, no, then she'd really think you were lying. Did you say she was a staunch republican or democrat? Either way, tell her ya bought some porn, that'll get her goat!

DOOOOD where are youuuu??? 
well, if Stephanopoulos didn't think i was a crackhead before, he probably does now.
yesterday morning i was boiling some water to make spaghetti, and the heat was on for like 10 minutes yet nothing seemed to be happening. wtf? so i lift the pot off the stove, and the fucking water suddently EXPLODES, scalding my hand and sending the pot crashing to the floor....

Good impressions are entirely overrated! It's definitely cooler to be "the weird guy from the neighborhood" than "the dude who won't talk to anyone who's never declared war." Plus, with talent like yours, who needs a reputation?!

my god it's hot in here. it's 90 degrees in dc with 90 percent humidity. my wood-floored studio apartment has no a/c, and in summer it turns into a fickin sauna. sweat is running down my body, and my arms are sticking to the pages of my notebook. this fan does nothing but blow hot air on me.
it's going to be a long summer.

ok, back from europe. all in all, a pretty chaotic trip ... but those are always the ones that seem most fun when you look back.
as i alluded to in my last entry, this was actually the second leg of a trip that began with a week in china, and i only had a few hours of being back here in dc in between...

Thanks! To everyone's surprise (especially mine!), I'm incredibly happy!
As for your trip - wow! I have to say, your long-ass journals never feel like long-ass journals to me. When I saw all that, I'll admit, my first thought was, "Damn - I'm never gonna get through this." Five seconds later, I'm done - and I want your job!!! You are entirely too badass.

And thanks for the last comment at my journal - you're right - fuck the office world! I just can't get down with that. I'm thinking of waitressing. That way I can do a little writing on the side.
