That Applies To Cake, Right?

Read on a beer coaster:

"Eat Responsibly. Save Room For Dessert."

Excellent advice no matter how you look at it.

Happy Saturday Night, R'Ville!

Melancholy + Tired + Alcohol = Should Have Known Better

"Every party needs a pooper, that's why I invited you. Party Pooper, Party Pooper..."

God, I hate it when that song is about me.

Important To Note

A rain that is perfect for a fantasy is terrible, treacherous for driving.

Running Through My Head All Morning

In the desert
I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,
Held his heart in his hands,
And ate of it.
I said, "Is it good, friend?"
"It is bitter – bitter", he answered,
"But I like it
Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart

-Stephen Crane

Crooked eyes, an awkward nose, and a mouth that doesn't give enough away. Hovering over moody, patience was never my virtue. Quiet is easier than truth.

Minor Road Rage

I realize pedestrians have the right of way BUT if you stop in front of me to look up at the sky, tongue hanging out, I'm going to run over you.

Better Than An Alarm

Someone said my name and I quickly sat up, looking around in the dark. Finding no one, I glanced at the clock - exactly 3am.

Did you find relief

Or was it disappointment

In your empty bed?

Hours spent sleeping off scary double vision and 8 days of headaches. The weekend left without me.
