Caring Is Creepy

I’ve come to the realization that I’m completely unable to give a fuck. Whatever mechanism causes people to give a fuck – whether it be a soul, a conscious, Irish guilt – mine is broken. It is slightly upsetting. I opened up this blog writing thingy with the thought that I want to write something, [...]

In Case You Missed It

Time for another fake update! In taking a little break from working from home and shoveling out my house/car from under the snow, I checked my blog stats – because I have no shame. In doing so, I found out if you search for “the placebo effect in popular culture” my blog is one of [...]

True Love (In A Movie)

So Deirdre and I were talking a few days ago, and I don’t remember what exactly the context was but the first few lines of this came out of it. She asked me to finish writing it, and I’ve been meaning to send it to her but she hasn’t been online. I’ve shown it to [...]

Dreaming of You (If You’re Michelle Trachtenberg)

So, Deirdre, I’m sorry and… [...]

I’m Back

Is it mildly disconcerting to anyone else that the President’s inauguration is being advertised like MTV’s Spring Break? I’m waiting for George Stephenopolis to get on the TV with a gem like: “And right before the President’s inaugural address, Budweiser will present the Wet Business Suit Contest live from the Rose Garden. You’ve never seen [...]

Fools That Fall Behind

She says that love
Is for fools who fall behind
And I’m somewhere between

A killer from a savior

~ “Shimmer” by Fuel

I’ve fallen pretty far behind the amount of posts I had expected to have up by this point, but my vacation was more active than I expected. Anyways, here [...]
