this is my life

 

the not so ready for prime time player

I AM SO BAD AT THIS TUMBLR BIDNESS. I feel like one of those out-of-the-loop (usually older, sorry) folk that gets a newfangled cellular phone and can’t figure out how to make a damn call. “It’s a tip calculator!” “IT HAS MORE FUNCTIONS!”

Anyway. Someday I will figure this out, or find a site that I prefer better, or get a better computer setup going, not that any of that matters, to anyone probably.

I watch too many old movies and dream that someday I can either hit the Kerouacian road, or set up shop in some small lonesome town and sell creepy antiques. That’s pretty much how I spend my time lately. Not that anyone cares.

See you in another six months or so.

Hi there! I don't know if you remember me... I'm Nick, and we haven't talked for many, many years. Anyhow, I was doing a crossword puzzle and one of the clues was 'The Garden of ____ (Dietrich movie)' and it reminded me of your old website/screen name. :-) If you'd like, write me back illuminatiagt@yahoodotcom

Hi… sorry i never check tumblr. where do I know you from?

“you stupid kraut”

Ugh. Murphy’s Law has completely worked against me today. New computer is now not a sure thing (not yet anyway), and I broke my coffeemaker this morning… wow I know those are petty-sounding first world problems, but the mood I’m in doesn’t help either. I’m about to go all Basil Fawlty on the next person/object that happens to upset me.

It just isn’t fair to attempt to sum up a person in a few sentences, not to the person or the reader. I consider myself lucky to have known him, to be able to call him a close friend. Words can’t begin to express how wonderful he was, and what an incredible loss this is.

Yea, we’re back in business. If you’re interested, curious, feeling particularly sorry for me - shoot me an email or what-have-you. I’m not going to charge anything, however… Generous donations of one to two dollars would be greatly appreciated :P
