i've made a momentous decision. i've overstayed my welcome here. my short-as-hell attention span is telling me that a change is needed. so...as of now i have a new home. if you have even an iota of interest in reading my ramblings, please direct yourself here. thank you, kindly....

alright, you bastard! i can't allow myself to be dissed further. so i've crept out of my sickbed to type these words with arthritic fingers. it took me twenty minutes to turn on the computer and another ten to log onto this site. i hope you're happy, damnit!
seriously, though...i've been out of commission lately. sicker than i can ever recall being...it's been frustrating and a little scary. today is the first day in almost 3 weeks that i really feel like things are turning around. i'm still not 100% percent, but i'm headed in that direction. i'd probably have recovered sooner, but i did something stupid when my young friends from texas were here a couple weeks ago. despite being under the weather, i found myself in the tenderloin at 1am drinking 40s out of paper bags and smoking cigarettes. it's fair to say that evening set me back a bit.
but enough about my troubles. i've still been going to work because i need the money (and because i refuse to admit i'm too sick to function) and i've still been reading, watching movies and scouring the used bins for good music. for anyone that cares, i'm in the midst of reading this. it's nothing too thought-provoking or challenging, but a good read nonetheless. i'm saving the deeper books for when my head is totally clear. i've also gotten new cds by mark eitzel, juno and the pernice brothers. i haven't listened to them, but i'm anxious to do so. i've also seen about 10 movies since i last posted, the best of which were requiem for a dream, before night falls and another viewing of seven...which i hadn't seen in a long time.
now i must go. the new issue of big takeover is out and i'm jonesing to get a copy. since i've given up smoking (10 days and counting), i need my less harmful addictions to pick up the slack. and for all the naysayers who know me and think the quitting smoking won't stick, i can say with confidence that it will. the reason is simple. this time i'm scared to start again.
