So often must I resist the thoughts of disappointment. In the span of constructing the prior sentence, I have breathed vapors of this sensation, exhaling the propensity to succumb to these weights. And, too heavily do these millstones of defeatism weigh upon my shoulders, assuredly on your own, and doubtlessly haunt our growth and maturation towards […]

Miliseconds
The holidays are upon us. Yes, the holidays. Some love these times. Some loathe them My feelings can vacillate drastically between the two extremes. Though, to be truthful, I would evaluate my feelings as abundantly neutral. Numbness, sadly, is the determined sensation, or lack thereof, at this time of year. And in the course of […]
Apothecary
Casting wishes into the placid pond of life won’t cause ripples which result in me being a better singer, so I voice my efforts into your lake of judgement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJhuVgrLhNU&feature=youtu.be Humbly yours, J

There are many who may disagree with this statement, but I stand by it, at least as it pertains to my beer interests. If variety and creativity were not relevant, I believe that I would be drinking from […]
Paint
When you look at your house, or apartment, or other form of dwelling, a yurt maybe, what do you see? We adorn our beams and eaves with skins of chemical and design, to mask the naked support that our augmented forest provide. And with these supplements we create uniqueness, character, and differentiation. Casually we accent our […]

Sometimes, between the haze of sleeplessness, and the release of drunkenness, one may find a halcyon sensation that is brought about by an immaculately constructed song. In a pre-dawn reverie, I stroke my thumb as I finger the keys. I don’t recall the emergence of the lines of wisdom that have creased the epidermis. Yet […]
