current crush

I never get tired of simple forms.

can't stop thinking about...

...things of simple beauty:

the opening sequence to The Assassination of Jesse James (oh, and the entire film)

the new EELS album, End Times

summer nights in the back yard (summer had better arrive quickly or I might go off the deep end)

coping mechanisms

Excuse me while I sink into a well-deserved funk. Sadness is turning into physical pain. My self-prescribed remedies will be:

– every Built To Spill song I can get my hands on
– a few bottles of red
– yet another attempt at that whole 'running thing'

goodbye dear grandpa

Life is dukkha (life is unsteady). Everything is temporary. Celebrate the temporary.

Goodbye dear Grandpa... always quick to smile, to give... and quick to tease but in a sweet way. If there had been a prize for Most Perfect Lawn in Colorado you would have won it, hands down.

Rest well and goodbye.
