I should write more often if I want anybody to give a shit. I never update this silly thing... Probably because I'm not an artist or a contributor. I'm just a watcher who's social life is elsewhere. Still, if you're reading this: Thanks. Please comment so I know who you are.

I'm listening to Verve Pipe today at work. I ended up with one of their CDs on accident, and today it's really striking a chord with me that it hasn't hit in the past. Not because the music is particularly stunning or moving, but because it's moving a very heavy stone against my heart, and stirring up stories that had settled at it's feet. I recently came across a gift once given to me by the person I inherited this CD from: It was a note, written to ease a broken heart, and it was (and still is) the nicest thing anybody has ever done for me.

That same person, more recently, wrote "Sometimes I miss your friendship..."
Sometimes I miss your friendship too.

It's always the most beautiful, artistic, poetic, and sensitive people who hurt the worst; those blessed/cursed souls feel hurt in a way that lesser-gifted people can't comprehend. I see that in some of the people who are closest to me, and I always wish I could help... or at least understand.

I hope you get through what you're going through, whatever it is. Your art has gotten so much better it's crazy.



Speaking of work, I got a new job that I really love. It pays me well, and soon I'll be working full time, at just the one job, supporting myself and building myself a lifestyle I can live with. Things are really looking up...

Now all I need is a piano at my new place.
