Quote Of The Day

"Friends, both the imaginary ones you build for yourself out of phrases taken from a living writer, or real ones from college, and relatives, despite all the waste of ceremony and fakery and the fact that out of an hour of conversation you may have only five minutes in which the old entente reappears, are the only real means for foreign ideas to enter your brain."

-Nicholson Baker

I am still pondering the meaning and affects of this quote…

About Me

This will prove to be a random collection..thoughts, poetry, questions, ideas. Most of the time I get inspired at random moments...so my thoughts, etc. are written on random scraps of paper-everything from napkins to church bulletins. I'll be including here some old bits from journals and scraps, as well as newer pieces. Feel free to comment and please let me know if something inspires something else...
