I am Going to Waste Today Like Nobody's Business


Back in Columbus, I'd smoke and just relax reading. Even now, I tend to get paranoid - so it's a rare occassion when I'll partake. More a solitary thing, as I tend to clam up and never speak at all if I'm around other people.

So - not answering the phones. Not even answering if someone knocks. So don't even try. :)

UT Demo is out. Battlefield 1942. I've got a bunch of movies. I've got a few ideas for some Flash experiments. The day is open to wasting...



I'd Update This

But I doubt much will change.



Blade II is Just Awful

I mean, they do some neat stuff. Every once in a while, the action shots were fantastic - a few great scene cuts, transitions. A neat concept at times, and a few killer moments. But for each instance of newness and breaking the mold, they seem to apologize for doing anything "different" and degrade into plain old hollywood dreck. Seriously - stuff that a first-year writing student wouldn't touch with a 10 foot cliche pen. Ah well. I as in the mood for pulp, and pulp is what I got.



I Had an Idea for a Poem Earlier

But I'm not sure if it was a good idea, or just the chemicals chattering away in my brain. It's difficult to tell sometimes, if it's insight you've gained, or just stupidity. Trying to work it out now, and scribbling and writing a bit.

I switched to whiskey. Went out to the store, and bought a small pint. A fifth would be too dangerous, I think. So this smaller size will be just for the weekend. I'm getting slowly fuzzy, talking to friends on IM, working on a poem... and Heather and I may hang out tomorrow, to see some of the art on display in the neighborhood. Around the Coyote is this weekend.

Matt is going to be exhibiting all weekend, and I wanted to make sure to see his work. It'll be fun to hang out with Heather again, and see what she's been up to. Hopefully, I won't fall asleep this time. :)

Right now, there are a gazillion people wandering around the streets near my apartment. I've got some slow music going, sipping on whiskey. I'm trying to tease out anything of substance from two lines that I've been repeating in my head for the past few hours. The world feels rich and full of life, and what I can see in my immediate view is nothing but possibility. It's a good feeling.
