A writerly attempt to organize my mind's cheese-flavored chaos. Different Time, Different Place. Written by a soldier in Alexander the Great’s army. 8212;————————————————————————————————————————————————. Sorry it’s been a while since I last posted, we’ve been busy, busy, busy! Just got back to Babylon, and I’m I exhausted. If you’ve never marched across a desert, you probably can’t relate (I’m talking to you, Athens readers), but for those who have (in my case, twice! Let me tell you, it’s no fun. Let me...

A writerly attempt to organize my mind's cheese-flavored chaos. COME ON, IT DIDN’T WORK THE SECOND TIME EITHER? I NEED TO SHIT! Me (to a little kid who just walked up to the tornado): Do you like the tornado? Parent (who just walked up behind his or her kid): Definitely. Me (confused): Oh, I was talking to-. Parent: How fast is it? Me: Um. It rotates at four miles per hour on average. Parent: Not very fast. Me: I guess not. Me (to little kid): What do you think it’s made of? Parent: Smoke. Obviously.

First Attempt to Translate My First Post Written on a Train While Using My iPhone. 8212;———————————————————————————————————————————————————-. Was it an error, unintended, and does this undermine the integrity of the author? If it was an intentional error, why make it? And on and on, all the while the true intention behind the writing is lost to time. Now, however, it seems as though mortality. How many of them were there? So annoying, a word...

Lessons from GP’s | The Lowest Stair
https://theloweststair.wordpress.com/2010/10/24/lessons-from-gps
A writerly attempt to organize my mind's cheese-flavored chaos. Lessons from GP’s. Mutual popcorning is wonderful. Human beings have evolved both to act like hunters and the hunted. Hence we are good at fighting, but also pretty damn good at running away, too. Guinea pigs? I feel so safe and warm and… and… WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME? Humans popcorn, too! I won this game! Someone I hate lost the game! Or, more broadly,. Whatever the reason, I know this much: the next time I see my gp’s bounce around th...

That’s my name, asshole! 8221; As a side note, I am a terrible, vulgar guest at any party I attend. Though I grew up with my name and am so used to it I rarely stop to think about it, new people I meet can’t help but make some kind of comment on it. Who can blame them? Me: It’s pretty awesome. Not even going to try?

The Lazy Ninja | The Lowest Stair
https://theloweststair.wordpress.com/2010/10/04/the-lazy-ninja
A writerly attempt to organize my mind's cheese-flavored chaos. Secrecy is of course the most important aspect of slacking off. For example, at the Museum where I earn my day-pay, there are two locations famous for attracting slackers during the day. These two rooms are both unmonitored and comfy. So why not doze off in them? Because everyone else does, of course! I thought. I had found my new slacking off destination. And here I reached an impasse. My internal debate raged for a week straight:. Though I...

A writerly attempt to organize my mind's cheese-flavored chaos. An Open Letter Written to the Family of the Spider that was just Annihilated by the Tesla Coil. How many explorers have given all of themselves so that we may discover and begin to tame new frontiers? How many hardworking, well-intentioned people, of all ages, races, creeds, and, yes, species, have been struck down because they dropped in the way of progress, and progress brushed them aside? It was filed under Open Letter. Life as a Grown-Up.

A writerly attempt to organize my mind's cheese-flavored chaos. First Post Written on a Train While Using My iPhone. NOTE TO HOPEFULLY AVOID DERISION: The following post was written after I disabled all programs on my phone that in any way contribute to “improving” my writing (e.g. spell-check, grammar check, etc.). I wrote the following at one time with almost no self-editing or filtering and with as much speed as I could muster. Forgive me. If it was an intentional error, why make it? First Post Writte...
