Don't poke the bear.

I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore.

Stay tuned...

Sorry for all of the youtube links lately, but this is sick.

Hello Wedding!!!

I'm doing some research on Bukowski for novel revisions, and among the booze and the whores I stumbled upon this gem:



your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
and the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
your life is your life.
know it while you have it.
you are marvelous
the gods wait to delight
in you.

-The Laughing Heart; Charles Bukowski

A brief check in:

Work = kicking my ass
NaNoWriMo = kicking my ass
Approaching holiday weekend = not as anxiety-inspiring as I anticipated
Facial mask I have on = tightening the skin on my chin, forehead and cheeks

Twitter has been a terrible influence. So much easier to put thoughts out in small blurbs. Great outlet for those of us with just a touch of narcissism – the kind that permeates the personality like a vein of white running through an otherwise gray stone.

So yeah, that's what I've got today. A tightening mask, growing word count, newfound appreciation of offshore development teams and love of short, vague statements posted on and for the Internets to either enjoy or overlook.

Take what you like, and leave the rest ;)
