Who is the You that thinks It knows Who It is?

Sunday, June 19th, 2011

I love reading about how people don’t do enough for themselves and for the world. I absolute adore getting fired up and hating a system, loathing a process, or grinding my teeth in the general direction of some backwards thing nobody (but me, of course) realizes or cares about. I freaking eat that up. I […]

You’re not going to die tomorrow

Friday, May 27th, 2011

Lately I’ve been having deja vu like experiences where I get to vividly imagine being where I am at some moment, but to watch it as if it were hundreds of years before.  Yesterday, for example, I walked along the city wall with the smell of horse shit and the sounds of children laughing, the […]

Die Besten Muffins

Monday, May 23rd, 2011

I discovered a book yesterday titled, “Die Besten Muffins.”  I am having a hard time saying the title because I’m pretty sure  it should be pronounced, “dee best in moofins.”  I can’t say moofins instead of muffins.  That aside, the pictures in this book have rekindled my love of muffins.  I used to eat so […]

I Walk the Lain(sitz) [River].

Saturday, May 21st, 2011

The walk of shame.  It’s not hard to find.  They’re those people walking bleary eyed across college campuses across the world at an hour in the morning earlier than they’ve ever been up for class.  They’re the people wearing last nights clothes but not so fancily anymore.  They’re the people who slept where they partied […]

A Slow Day in Austria

Tuesday, May 17th, 2011

I haven’t written in quite some time.  So, I’m just going to spend some time spouting words out. This past week I’ve reached a point — a boiling point? a le grange point? a critical mass? a terminal velocity?  I don’t know.  It is some point where I feel quite ready to explode or change. […]

Lonesome Wolf in Austria

Thursday, April 14th, 2011

In ten days I will have been in Austria for a month.  I am officially a resident of Weitra Stadt, I have a bank account and real bank card, I have and am presently wearing authentic leather pants, and I can tell the shop keepers that I’m just looking, though it may take me a […]

Austria: Two Weeks and Then Some

Friday, April 8th, 2011

  I’ve been here in Austria for a little more than 2 weeks.  That’s what I might consider the appropriate length of time for a vacation if I were a fine working businessman type person.  This would be the vacation that makes me quit my job.  Thank goodness this is my real life and not […]

First Week in Austria

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

So.  Has the Austrian Apple lost its schein?  No.  Not hardly.   What did I do today?  Well  I woke up at 7 AM, probably a few minutes after most of my loved ones at home went to sleep for the night.  I have been waking up every day minutes before my alarm.  I have […]

Austria: Arriving and Starting to Settling In

Sunday, March 27th, 2011

It’s taken me until the 3rd night here in Austria before I have done so much as even attempted to figure out how the converters work for me to plug in my laptop.  Luckily, I don’t need to buy any new cables, even for appliances with 3 prongs, while the European plugs only have two […]

Consensual Reality

Tuesday, December 7th, 2010

My thoughts have been focusing around time in varying capacities these days.  Understanding time as relative to each perceiver has greatly influenced my way of looking at life — I have been kicking around this term in my head that’s something like “consensual reality.”  You can start from many trains of thought — one I […]
