clicky, clicky.
fresh gossip.
you should know:
"... The midnight disease is a kind of emotional insomnia; at every conscious moment its victim - even if he or she writes at dawn, or in the middle of the afternoon - feels like a person lying in a sweltering bedroom, with the window thrown open, looking up at a sky filled with stars and airplanes, listening to the narrative of a rattling blind, an ambulance, a fly trapped in a Coke bottle, while all around him the neighbors soundly sleep. This is in my opinion why writers - like insomniacs - are so accident-prone, so obsessed with the calculus of bad luck and missed opportunities, so liable to rumination and a concomitant inability to let go of a subject, even when urged repeatedly to do so. ..." - Chabon, Wonder Boys.

    Tell a Friend
    after a few hours of work on the company dime, this journal is friends only.

    of course, it's friends only because really, if you don't know me, you'll find it dull. i'm doing you a favor. no, really.
    behind the lock is a catalog of itemized current events, some dopey nostalgic ramblings, some transcribed daydreams, and maybe, though i doubt it, some loose sections of unfinished writing. i like to be able to remember what i did & what i thought three months ago, which is why i started keeping this journal, at the (oh-so-convincing) behest of (that rascally charmer) a friend. it's worked out for me - i'm keeping tabs on myself & the people i love. if you're interested, you may leave a comment here. it would be courteous, and i'm a huge fan of all things retro - including courtesy.

    thanks, and i hope you're doing really well, whoever you are.

    just now, i am: accomplished
