Somewhere Along The Way…

Summer hit the city this weekend, all at once, and in New York one of the first real signs of summer are the whackjobs, who come out of the wings and flood the streets at the first hint of girls in miniskirts. And just my luck! - two of said whackjobs have apparently set up […]

This may seem blindingly self-evident, but it never really occurs to me until after the fact: the downside to throwing yourself headlong into Something is the moment that comes when it’s all over, when you walk out that door for the last time and drift off into the outside world like a boat slowly coming […]

So for the past week or so, the weather here in fine ol’ New York City has borne a frightning resemblance to the conditions inside my head: mainly foggy, and somewhat difficult to predict. And for the first time in quite awhile, I cannot attribute this to my consumption of alcohol, as I have been […]

This is how the dance goes:
(Sung to the tune of “Ambulance” by TV On The Radio.) “Ba dum dum pills pills pills pills dum dum dum pills…” Ah, how I love thee, modern medicine!
I finally caved today and went to see a doctor about my throat agony and suddenly-problematic right eye, which is now completely […]

I must apologize for my lengthy absence, folks. Much to my ironic delight, my excuse is that I have been busy playing the victim - literally. Well, not quite literally, but I have been “playing” one, in the sense that our choreographer for this little dance thing that I’m in has decided to go all […]
