you were welcomed. So you heard of a place called New Orleans. And you were welcomed. Free license to walk the streets, a thousand or so back pocket pamphlets. You helped yourself to the food, possibly undertipped. Cโ€ฆ

swore i would never share this piece again, but the moment in New Orleans seems to be demanding it of me.

christmas in a laboratory. Two sub-levels down, the little robot quietly raised his head. He counted the minutes. Kept an eye on the door. On the keypad, its digits a calculus red. Once convinced, he stretched his set of misโ€ฆ

please enjoy this tragically heartwarming tale of the star-crossed love between a little robot and Christmas turkey named Hamilton.

when halfway through a fifth of Jack should do the trick for this evening, but WWOZ in #NewOrleans starts celebrating Tom Waits' birthday, and now you just have to laugh at that old bloodshot moon in that burgundy sky.

"before we begin, in honor of our fallen colleague, let us raise our heads and share a moment of maniacal laughter. those who wish may take a personal day to kick infermed children in the teeth."

we lasted through winter. i was sideways, asleep, or thought i was, between them, worried what if i would never feel this way again. morning just starting to peak. wouldnโ€™t make its way through those blinds for a good bit, โ€ฆ
