Thought I’d do one entry for this post. In my defense, it is a long one, but feel free to think of me as lazy if you want. Looking over my teenage years, it only makes this Laurie Halse Anderson quote feel all the more true: I could go on for days about our disrespect … Continue reading Entry #35

Once again, I apologize for all the awful poetry you’re forced to read. The first entry contains more stuff about circus obsession. While I do blush at some of the naïveté of it all, again, I don’t regret the time I spent on my various obsessions. They got me through a very rough period in … Continue reading Entries #30, 31, & 32
Entry #29
Hello and welcome to any viewers I may have. My excuse as to why I’m so late with this post, is that I am juggling several projects, so bear with me. I adored Unsolved Mysteries as a kid, and I still do. Robert Stack’s theatrically trained voice lent gravitas to even the silly segments about … Continue reading Entry #29

No deep stories behind these entries. I don’t know why I wrote the one passage in cursive. Transcript: Monday 10/15/01 Dear Mom and Dad, If you are reading this, then faugh! I’d thought better of you. Why don’t you salvage what’s left of your fragile reputation and close this book now. Sincerely, Your Loving Daughter … Continue reading Entries #26, 27, & 28
Entry #25
A long entry, so there’ll just be one discussed here. Regarding the books listed at the beginning, so far I’ve only managed to make it through Black Like Me. The others…well, I’ve given it the good college try, but haven’t gotten very far. As you can tell by some of the remarks mentioned, I too, … Continue reading Entry #25

There's not a lot to say about these entries. Many references to books along with general weirdness. I was a weird child who blossomed into a weird adult, what can I say? Spoilers for John Fowles's The Collector. Thought I should warn as a courtesy, even though the book has been out for decades. For … Continue reading Entries 23 & 24

Okay no more coded pages Here on out, you can see my political views develop, full of the kind of naive earnestness that only youth can possess. I suffered from the belief that too often grips a lot of Liberals and Leftists, the idea that all you needed to do, was present the right people … Continue reading Entries 20, 21, & 22
Entry 16, 17, 18, & 19
Here’s some more of my stuff. Out of courtesy to those of you reading this blog, the few, the proud, I’m going to try to get on a more regular posting schedule. As for materials I’ve censored, I blacked out some names and song lyrics, but there is something major I did black out. I … Continue reading Entry 16, 17, 18, & 19
Journal One: Entry 13, 14, & 15
I don’t know if anyone besides me is reading this blog. If you are, hello and welcome! You are a great person and may life continue to go well for you. My litany of excuses are I was dealing with a move, I have shitty executive functioning, I was without a scanner for a long … Continue reading Journal One: Entry 13, 14, & 15
Journal One: Entry Twelve
Hey, sorry I keep dragging my feet on these posts. I don't know if anyone out there is reading this blog, but I strive to do a project justice, even if only one other person besides me may stumble onto it. All I can plead is a combination of shitty executive function, and the fact … Continue reading Journal One: Entry Twelve
