saturnian nocturne

    things have been busy lately. I’ve been busy lately. Trying to sort out this cross-country move is harder than I thought it would be. I’m looking for temp work. Doing a little work here and there though, which has been nice. Nicole and I went down south to visit her fam last weekend; we’re doing the same for 4th of July. Should be lovely. We had a great time down there — went to Santa Cruz Boardwalk and such, and just fucked around in general. (more…)

    It’s quiet now, and pitch black outside. I’m still up in Oregon. My parents asked if I could stay a little longer, and it’s been nice to have a few more days here. I’m leaving Thursday night, as far as my plans are, and I’ll be back to San Francisco sometime on Friday. I miss Nicole and she said she misses me, and it’ll be really great to see her once I get back. I’ve still been watching a bunch of Venture Bros. with Anna; we actually just got done watching a couple episodes. It’s been an auspicious start to the week. (more…)

    It’s been an interesting week, although the days have stacked up and gone by faster than I would have liked. I haven’t done a whole lot except for hang out with family and friends — played a lot of videogames with Claude and such, and watched a lot of Venture Bros. with Anna. I finished Bacchae at some point, which was brilliant, especially in the detail into which Euripides goes to describe Pentheus’ disembowelment. Nicole was right about how awesome it was. I’ve been playing a lot of games and fucking around otherwise. (more…)

    so it ends, four years later. I graduated Saturday the 23rd May. my parents, grandparents, and my sister came along to watch. met some of my profs in the process. We had a great time in general while they were down, and Nicole was really sweet throughout (as always!). I’m just glad to be done with everything and have the MA in hand the mail. Nicole and I took my parents and Anna to Nan King Road for dinner one night while they were there, which was awesome. I wish they could have stayed longer, but oh well. (more…)

beyond the fields we know

    a quarter-century, tomorrow. I’d go back into the annals of my life, but that’d be boring, to be honest, so I won’t reminisce too much here. I’m excited to have my birthday tomorrow. I’m hoping to do something low-key with friends on Friday, but nothing too much tomorrow. Nicole’s fam is ostensibly coming into town to visit tomorrow, which will be cool, and I’m just planning on chilling out with them. as far as I hear, my parents and grandparents pitched in to get me an iPod for my birthday too, which should be arriving in the post tomorrow or the next day, with any luck, and I’m ridiculously excited about that! grep will solve all my problems with loading music on there.

  • about me

        i tend to muse about whatever happens to be on my mind, and heavily inject my posts with much of my quotidian life -- as much as i can reconstruct of it, at least. at the same time, if you look hard enough, you can see a lot of my personal philosophy shine through here. ποιήσης, as well as any forging of creative works, take the front burner here too.

        basically, if you want to know anything about me, i'd suggest talking to me (cf. myspace in the links), or hell, just continue reading. i am a poor grad student, also, if you didn't know, and i'm trying to make it through school in hopes of getting a PhD in Classics and being a professor. yep. thank you kindly for reading -- one of these days, you all will see this in book form. i swear it.
