Welcome!
Hello and welcome, friend! My name is Jim and this is my blog, constructed entirely of dreams and opinions. My lawyer said that a disclaimer would be a good idea, but he didn't include any jokes to go with it. Damned if I can think of any either.

Pat Passed Away
I wrote and watercolor-illustrated a little book about my Mom passing away. Download it for free and consider a donation to her favorite charity, the Revlon Run Walk for women.

the hills have awesome
I just watched the last three or four minutes of a truly awesome horror movie, which thanks to IMDB and the internet in my Anaheim hotel room I have identified as The Hills Have Eyes II. As I type this I am listening to the late eighties cock rock style theme song. It also is [...]

lactate test mark two
I woke up the first time this morning around four in the morning. Ghosts of my old life were outside hooting at one another and raising hell and presumably kissing each others faces, although that part is quiet and doesn’t keep one awake.
I considered stomping outside in my boxers and undershirt and doing a [...]

New year weigh in
Well, I just stepped on the scale as I was showering and it was scary. I put on at least five pounds over my holidays, when I was eating whatever I wanted as much as I wanted and not exercising at all. This is the end of my first week back and I’m back up [...]

pyramids suck
Pyramid spin class drills today, then one legged drills. The pyramids sucked a lot. Sucked like.. an Egyptiannnn.
During the 120 pyramid, my coach walked over and gave the resistance knob a twist on my bike, and I was struggling like hell to keep up. I had to wind it back. I was blowing like crazy. [...]

watts new, pussycat?

Last night I went to the Thrasher’s game and had a ball. A friend of mine had tickets to a suite so there was free food and free booze (even though I didn’t drink any). It was really cool, especially since I hadn’t been to a hockey game in Atlanta yet.
The game went into [...]

a thousand incongruous suns
I’m reading A Thousand Splendid Suns right now, by Khaled Hosseini. I feel like not reading it anymore.
My problem with it is that it’s highly disconnected with reality, and the main theme of the book seems to be that men are horrible assholes. What a thing to want to demonstrate. Sometimes humans do shitty [...]

on a new years day
My street is the quietest I have ever heard it. Its very cold outside.
I missed the daytime entirely by alternately sleeping, talking on the phone in bed, and vomiting. Right now my sheets are in the dryer. I guess I had fun… who can say?
I am ready to climb forth from my epic holiday [...]
