Rube Goldberg couldn’t have devised a better machine:

everywhere at once
December 20, 2008 – 11:16 pm
Sometimes I want to be everywhere at once. Like snow. I want to fall into every tiny crevice, and be a blinding haze of whiteness and melt my way deep into the earth. I want to pile in people’s gutters and be tracked into their dirty kitchens and across their carpets. [...]
reminder

Miranda July reminds me, “It … triumphant” http://www.noonebelongsheremorethanyou.com/00025
Werner Erhard reminds us, “Happiness is a function of accepting what is. Love is a function of communication. Health is a function of participation. Self Expression is a function of responsibility.”

the next four years
November 5, 2008 – 1:02 am
We have a new president-elect. Barack Obama. And this is our victory, a victory that “grew strength from the young people who rejected the myth of their generation’s apathy.” What is it that this victory stands for? There is an excitement in the air that after tonight, things are different. [...]
late night future
October 25, 2008 – 12:24 am
I don’t feel like I have time either to blog or to brainstorm about projects, so instead I’m going to do both at the same time and hope that that will take less time than doing either one individually.
I want to make a difference with my projects, so I wanted to brainstorm what areas there [...]
nothing is everything new
October 20, 2008 – 1:54 am
Well… um… Hi. Tonight’s a little weird for me: there’s nothing I need to write about. I’ve been using this blog to help give myself clarity and accountability in working out some of the more difficult parts of my life. I’ve basically been writing about whatever has been bothering me at the [...]
showdown of self-discovery
October 14, 2008 – 12:59 am
On Saturday I wasn’t the possibility of joyful expression and playfulness that I said I would be–instead I was miserableness. I didn’t ask people to dance. I was awkward and cold with people who were nice to me. I avoided my friends. If I can’t be happy I can at least [...]
the pace of relationship
October 11, 2008 – 3:27 am
I had thought things were going pretty well. But talking to people at Showdown today, it seems like everyone has been through two or three relationships since the last time I saw them. And I haven’t had any. I’ve been spending my time doing a lot of great things, and I feel [...]
gross national moon

Good night, moon.
Good night, spoon.
Good night, red balloon.
Good night, baboon in the silly cartoon.
Good night, mice.
Good night, twice.
Good night, sticky rice.
Good night, not-so-nice device.
Good night, hon’.
Good night, bun.
Good night, everyone.
Good night, son of a gun.
Good night, toad.
Good night, road.
Good night overload!
and measurable results were seen to much amazement
October 3, 2008 – 12:20 am
Today I was community. I hadn’t set specific goals for myself, but the measurable results today were so obvious that I couldn’t miss them:
The number of people who unexpectedly expressed sincere appreciation of me: 4
The number of extraordinary actions people around me took as a result of my involvement: (at least) 5
The number of [...]
