That sharp golden streak cruising across the sky

The scooter guy has a name; his name is Richard. He is 53 years old. Sails year-round; says winter is best. Moving to South Boston; disgruntled with the change. Has fans, picks up garbage; the police leave him alone. Leading a new “frontier”, he says. Healthiest shape of his life. He tells me, “You’ve got [...]

Brief observations of recent days

We have a TV at work mounted on the wall that’s supposed to be kept on CNN or something equivalent. But one of my coworkers, Henok, always puts it on the History Channel, or the Discovery Channel, or TBS. On Friday, he was on the phone and had the Discovery Channel on. Now, it’s Shark [...]

Entries I neglected to write: Beach Biking ’07

It was a total of 40.6 miles, from my house to Brant Rock, and back home again. On my ’01 Haro Revo. In bright sunshine. In the mid-80s. It was glorious. NOTE: This entry is more for my own memory than for public consumption. Trust me, it won’t be interesting. Share this entry:

Traffic, but not much else

Today was the usual summer day: wake up at 11, shower, work, come home. Stay awake doing odds and ends until 4 o’clock, then sleep. The only highlights of today were the giant orange moon on the horizon as I was driving home, and my racing with a Peapod delivery truck, that nearly sent me [...]

A day, and night, of fun and friends

I woke up late today, got my act together, and headed to the Lemon Demon show in lovely Kingston. It was at Niel’s house, which is by the library and in a pretty nice section of town (though really, what in Kingston isn’t nice?). The grass was squishy from the downpours that had occurred earlier, [...]

Take that, Lance

40.6 miles on a fuckin’ BMX. Lots of pain. But it was so worth it. Share this entry:

“Buttoned down, you get the best of me”

Just bought the new Straylight Run album today. The new Smashing Pumpkins album is on its way through the mail. My day was filled with a bike ride, cute bunnies, steak and cheese subs, frisbee at Green Harbor, the beginning of Beerfest, and lots of Guitar Hero. Oh, and sparklers. It was a good day. [...]

Updates, updates, updates

Day 2 of two days off. Summer is so beautiful. My mom called this morning to let me know that they likely won’t be home until Friday. Being home alone is still weird. I was out like a light at one o’clock last night and slept for eleven hours—straight. I had a dream about hairy [...]
