Tried writing tonight, but no go. I don’t feel like I have anything to say. And without that, what’s the point of writing anything? If I were extremely sad right now, or insanely happy… I feel like I might have something to try to convey. But tonight, just a big blankness. I’d scribble a word or two, then immediately erase…
It’s not much, but I noticed this shriveled, black balloon maybe a week or so ago. I was standing at the Damen Blue Line stop, looking down onto the street, and noticed it hanging from a nearby tree. The balloon was being batted around by the wind, but had apparently been exposed to the elements for some time. I found…
I got home and, when I was fishing around in my mailbox… I come across this: Up until tonight, I’ve been worried that I had somehow offended the two of them. Mainly because I don’t remember anything at all from the last time we boozed together. I’m taking this as a sign that my fears were for naught, and all’s…
The Matchbook Museum. Big thanks to Matt for this link. Great scans – get lost here for a bit. When you’re done, check out the main site: www.lileks.com. Lots of neat collections.
There aren’t many blogs I keep up with, but eccesignum.org is one of them. Check out his Carpé Carp entry, and take a look around. Lots of good stuff there. eccesignum.karma++
After a nearly four week stint in Milwaukee, templeton’s back in NY and plugged into the digital world once more. He’s been quite the busy bee while he’s been away.. Temp, you didn’t miss all that much. Watch out for those email attachments though. :)
Woohoo! Congratulations on landing a new job! Way to knock their socks off!
Yesterday, Ben borrowed my camera for a photo shoot he was working on with his boys. It felt a little weird walking around with my LaCie drive in my pocket (it’s normally tucked into my camera bag). It also felt a bit weird to not have my camera on my person…not that I saw anything in particular that I wanted…
This morning, I remembered to grab all my bills so I could mail them. When I dropped them off into the mailbox at the end of my street, I walked another 50 feet before remembering I had forgotten my wallet. Backtrack. Then walk back. Needless to say, I was a bit late today. But lo and behold, I happen to…
I’m thinking Friday. I’m thinking the end of the work week. I’m thinking no requirements, no stress, no to-do lists. I’m thinking booze and blindness. What do you think?
Justin has been considered “underground” the past few months, where his sole task has been to work on developing a company-wide Content Management System. Truth be told, he’s only really gone underground in the past few weeks, and has still been fielding a lot of requests that keep him from the tasks he’s supposed to be focusing exclusively on. The…
The Chicago River was a surprise this morning, particularly since it had been frozen up a few days ago.
Most Sundays, if I take out the trash I tend to keep on walking down my alley to the local coffee shop. Part of it is due to habit, and another part is due to me just figuring it’s an efficiency thing. As long as I’m out, I might as well grab some coffee as well. Today, I had my…
You rock.
