Domino’s Oreo-Cookie Pizza

  Syrup of Ipecac, you have met your match.

Jeans Blues

Help, I think I’m shrinking. Recently, I went to one of those hip clothing stores to purchase a new pair of blue jeans. Although I’ve had a 34-inch waist for as long as I can remember, at this store, I’m a 32. What the fuck is going on there? Is it that damn metric system […]

WTF Happened To My Favourite Blog?

That’s probably what you’re thinking right now. OK, maybe this blog isn’t your favourite, and maybe you don’t spell “favourite” like that. But… uhhhh what was I talking about? Oh, right. The new look of my blog. What do you think? I’m still working out the kinks. Right now, there is no search function and […]

A Walking Tour

Recently, I rediscovered the benefits of walking. Not just for better physical health. For better mental health. It helps me clear my mind and get my blood flowing for the day — so much better than a cup of coffee. In any case, I thought it might be interesting to record my thoughts as I […]

This Morning

2:30 AM — SOMEWHERE IN FIJI: The phone rings in a darkened hotel room. It rings again. And yet again. Finally, a slender hand appears out from underneath the covers and awkwardly feels for the phone receiver, picking it up just at the end of the fourth ring. “Hello?” the groggy voice manages to say. […]

Another Muse Story

Well, guess what. Yeah, my muse has “inspired” me to write another story. This time, she didn’t say what I should write about or how long it should be. She didn’t even give me a sentence to start with. “Write,” she whispered in my ear. “Hm?” “Write.” “Write what?” “Just write.” “OK, thanks a lot.” […]

Because Every Hack Must Write One

It was a dark and stormy night. A young boy stood at his bedroom window, his ear pressed against the cold, smooth glass. He liked to listen to the spattering sound the rain made. But mostly, he liked to look at the mark his ear left on the glass after he pulled away. He’d run […]

A Fairy Tale (kinda sorta)

One upon a time, atop a giant hill, there sat an enourmous castle. And in this castle, lived the most hideously ugly princess in all the land. I mean, seriously, this chick was hard to look at. All her sevants had to be nearsighted or legally blind. Otherwise, they’d end up involunatarily coughing up their […]

Drug Plug

First of all, I want to make something clear. I don’t believe that someone should use their blog to plug products or services. That said, sometimes you just have to break the rules. Especially when it’s for something you really believe in. About a week ago, my left thumb started to hurt. Every hour or […]

Just Stop It

Baby, I know our relationship couldn’t be better right now, but it’s not like I haven’t been trying. A little less communication would help. I mean, when I write to you, you don’t have to write back straight away. I can wait a few hours. Or even days. Hell, you don’t have to write back […]
