It Turns Out I Sleep Bad – Part I
They also hooked one up to my nuts, but just to be funny. Those wacky technicians!
For as long as I can remember I’ve been exhausted.
I started taking naps my last year of college. I was studying meditation and self-hypnosis and would put myself in a deep trance following whatever instructions the new-agey book I was reading at the time suggested.

Someone Flipped Me The Bird!
I can only hope to run into this delightful human being again.
Had an amazing experience on the subway yesterday.
Well, in Chicago we don’t call it the subway. It’s the “el” which is short for “elevated train” because it does, in fact, go above ground. The trains also go below ground, too. I’m sticking with “subway,” although this incident technically happened at an elevated structure.
Back from a Real Vacation and a Three Week Writing Vacation
These sons of bitches flew around my head while I was reading. It was terrifying.
It’s been three weeks since I wrote anything.
Well, this is not entirely true. I did post a story last week about how it was discovered that my girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend is now seriously dating a woman I used to see ten years prior.

100k Twitter Followers and Caffeine Addiction
I crossed over 100k Twitter followers today.
