OH HI.
So: as of today I have officially lived in New York City for
five whole years and, for some reason, the occasion made want to revisit this long-forgotten little blog. Also, I saw that Google automatically shows visitor stats now and apparently I am still getting DAILY page views here. I mean, we're talking like, two or three readers daily but STILL. I feel guilty now. What if it's the same two or three people revisiting every day, desperately hoping I've gone to another
Jens Lekman show or
eaten too many cupcakes again, only to find that same old post from October?? Sorry, reader(s). I also realized I need to finally pay Flickr so that photostream shows up again too. Whoops.
Anyway, here's a glimpse of what's been going on in the last six months:
Wild!
I've also been working 1.5 jobs, writing movie articles for
Sketch Tiger, making half-hearted attempts at open mic storytelling, buying grown-up clothes, and making a number of questionable choices under the influence of whiskey.
I'll be honest: I'm in kind of a creative rut right now. I want to write awesome things and perform awesome things and make some non-depressing collages and learn to play the drums, but I can't seem to get started in any direction. Instead I'm listening to a lot of
Jens and
old Wilco and painting my nails and reading magazines and grumbling about teenagers. I told this to my mom today and she said "don't let those bad people in your house," by which I think she meant "don't let negative energy in your head" although I'm also going to double check all my locks. She's right, but mostly I just need any energy.
Hopefully I can get back on track with this blog. In the meantime, send me a project. Clearly I've been spending too much energy perfecting my sassy sunglasses face.
