It’s two AM and I am having a feast in a big, empty mansion. My patchwork bag of food is spilling open on the sterile granite counter top, a grapefruit venturing out across the grey expanse. I boost myself up to sit next to the food. My faded blue jeans are a colored echo of… Continue reading …and I love your dark

This is true
Not true in the traditional sense of the word, because I changed it all, but true in a deeper way. One of the truest things in the world. I don’t know how long I’ll leave this up; I’m not sure how I feel about pimping out my past. But, for now, here it is. “I… Continue reading This is true
Strippers, Snipers, and Bombs
It’s midnight and I’m shimmying in front of a coked up sniper named Jim. Moments like these it’s good to stop and ask yourself, “self, is this really what you want to be doing?” I learned to talk to myself that way in college statistics and I’ve never stopped. “You’ll see,” Jim says. “You’ll fucking… Continue reading Strippers, Snipers, and Bombs

I mean, I even have dreams with complicated time-schemas, where you start at the end and then find out what happened to… Continue reading Dream lovers

…that the people sitting behind me in the coffee shop are discussing Domesticity and National Identity. The woman is awesome and has done a bunch of research on this idea of interpereting women’s roles through cookbooks, and the guys being an ass and making jokes about it. This never happens in coffeeshops anyplace else in… Continue reading I just thought I'd tell you guys…
Winter Van Dwelling: Electronics
There’s a trick to keeping your cell phone and laptop alive and well in subzero temperatures. A few tricks, actually. Your stuff is probably fine with the normal intermittant warming that happens in your van when you drive around a couple times a day down to about ten above. Around zero degrees, just an your… Continue reading Winter Van Dwelling: Electronics
Alaskans I have loved, v3
So here I am, sitting at this coffeeshop writing a story about the hand fetishist I met last night when I looked up and saw my seventh grade science teacher talking to one of the city planning people who gather here to hypothesize about things like energy and commerce and grassroots government. We had the… Continue reading Alaskans I have loved, v3
Ladies, there is a Stripping Emergency
’tis the season of shitty stripper money, right? Not if you’re where the returning troops are. I don’t have much info, but email/call/comment if you wanna know where (not here). (A Stripping Emergency is when demand far excedes supply.)
