If It Feels Good Do It

People sometimes think I’m a Raiders fan. Wrong. It’s an obsession.
I got my 2008 season ticket package yesterday. It was a package, literally. Like, it came in a box.

Inside was all kinds of shit.

My favorite thing besides the tickets was the FAN CODE OF CONDUCT, with a huge list of prohibited actions.

Clearly the NFL produced [...]

In any relationship there is a before, a during, and an after part. In a monogamous relationship, I’m only into the before part. Fuck the rest of that shit.
Just kidding. That’s not really the way I feel. Or, I guess I should say, I don’t know if that’s the way I feel or not. [...]

I talked to a good friend of mine over the weekend. He’s married to this dream girl, who he loves a lot. A few years ago, he finished his P.h.d. and now he has a great job and makes a lot of money. His wife makes a lot of money, too.

I’m so happy
A lot of people showed really kind support. Thank you for [...]

He’s about ten years younger than I. I’ve known him since the day he was born, and known him quite well since he grew up on the same street that I did, two houses down.
He’s a guy I always look forward to seeing and love joking around with. He’s got [...]

My hearing still isn’t back to normal.
Yesterday during class someone said, “I’m in touch with her, and told her it wasn’t good.”
But I heard, “I had sex with her, and told her it wasn’t good.”
I thought to myself, Man, that’s pretty harsh.
Later, one of my classmates helped me to clarify the statement.
Maybe it’s not just [...]

Today I walked downtown to get some coffee. Then I sat in the coffee shop for quite a while, working on a poem. I felt so happy working on a sixteen line quatrain that hardly anyone will read. When I’m downtown, working on my writing, I feel the most happy I’ve ever felt in San [...]

Finally I can sleep.
After I got back to the U.S. I went to the doctor.
It turns out I have, among other things, a severe ear infection. I’m on antibiotics. All the fluid in my ear makes me drowsy, dizzy, and feel like I’m dreaming.
I also I  have an eye infection, but it has mostly gone [...]
