Defunct

• Sunday, January 6th, 2008 • 1 Comment

This domain has served me well. In a lot of ways the title “i have been floated” will never stop defining who I am, and perhaps I will eventually find this to be a big mistake. I feel, though, that this year, this two-thousand-and-eight, should be the year that I finally stop floating. Maybe I [...]

Writing White

• Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008 • 2 Comments

Sarah has been here for four days now. I think? This is day four. We’re going to Knott’s Berry Farm, which I am looking forward to since it has been a couple of years since I have been.

All the arrogance and self-confidence in the world can’t prepare [...]


Alone and Delusional

I am not in a good spot right now. I’ve effectively isolated myself from all my friends, and I’m not entirely sure why. I quit smoking, which is slowly becoming less and less fun as I get more and more irritable and anxiety ridden. I feel jittery and couped up. I feel like I’m at [...]


Vanishing

• Saturday, November 3rd, 2007 • 1 Comment

It’s been a while since I’ve written anything here. That’s sad, in a way, I guess, but I go through phases. I’m writing from a laptop, sitting at my friend’s house. That’s exciting, because it is my laptop, and I’ve always wanted a laptop and I finally came up with a justifiable use for one, [...]
