it's been a few months since my last experience with alcohol, and after a few rounds of tsing tao my filterin' organs aren't too bashful about pointing it out. i have a couple of finals tomorrow, and then i'm done with school for a few months. considering that i've spent most of my time lately preparing articles for the newswire, there has been little time...

am i the only one who doesn't think it's keen for a business to keep an employee that not only antagonizes volunteers but paying customers as well?

a brief explanation for my unexplained return: turns out i'm shipping two months earlier than expected, so now that i'm leaving in january what's the harm in sticking around until the end?

in other news, i'm compeltely obsessed with zombies right now. i blame dead rising.

i wrote out a long explanation for my departure. it disappeared. i lack the energy to recreate my original message. it's a pity, too, because the original message explained the situation so well.

speaking of advice: one of my favorite authors, chuck palahniuk, once said this about writing: shit or get off the pot.

monday is dj vu day. i heard some familar words from a "new" person, and then, no less than ten minutes later, i heard the same exact thing from the "old" person. they are words i'm wont to hearing, but not words i want to hear.

monday is also bum day. no excercise, stayed up late and slept it, haven't shaved or trimmed the beard...

"why did you decide to join the navy?"

i had nothing better to do with my life. i've always been interested in the ocean. mathematics was the only thing i was ever really consistant with in school. all of the men in my family have been in the military, most of them in the navy. i needed work, but it's becoming extremely difficult to find...

driving down highway 5 today, the engine roaring, the rain pouring, i found myself howling and growling along with my good friend tom waits. i came upon a realization then, listening to an advance copy of his new album, "orphans," that it feels like we're all living in his songs. what a great collection.


halloween was meh. i skipped going to the castro, which is...
