Today on the UNCW TV station that never stops playing at work, I got really scared when I thought Donnie Darko was on, since Tears for Fears started streaming out of the widescreen TV’s speakers.
However, UNCW TV surprised me again, now The Dodos are belting out intense beats and I really want to know who picks the music for this station. You’d think poorly designed slides...

Cheese Sandwich Film Festival!
If you don’t know Josselyn or you haven’t heard of the Cheese Sandwich Film Festiva l(Wednesday, April 1st, Jengo’s Playhouse in downtown Wilmington) go to http://www.cheesesandwichfilmfestival.com NOW!
Sunday, Adam, Martin and I grabbed a loaf of bread, a package of Kraft American cheese and Martin’s mini-DV camera and ran around Wilmington delivering cheese sandwiches....
Hazards of Love
Several people mentioned I might not like the new Decemberists album, “Hazards of Love.” I’m not sure I understand them. As soon as I uploaded it, I couldn’t turn it off.
I love concept albums. I always have, I think that’s why my high school musical taste revolved heavily around Tim Kasher. The Decemberists held it’s rank in my high school music library, and...
Gym, shower, homework, class. Looks like I’m getting this semester back on track. Finally. I don’t know why I’ve been so unmotivated all semester, but I’m turning that around.
The Oceanic just called to tell me I’m about to be trained as a server. Oh Hellz yeah.
So I always knew that the UNC-W TV channel played weird music. I thought I recognized some electronica band that always plays on repeat, but I never really payed attention to it.
For those that don’t know, I’m currently sitting at my desk job—procrastinating studying and short stories—when suddenly I heard the sweet, soulful vocals of Colin Meloy. Of course I perked up,...
The cheese on my Chic-Fil-A Bacon, Egg and Cheese biscuit always stick to the bacon. I remove this bacon from the biscuit and thanks to the melting magic force, the majority of the cheese stays on the bacon, in the trash can. So now I have an egg and some cheese biscuit. Every time.
Also, on a side note, Tumblr is formatted weird and until I can figure out a customization I like, It’s going to be this one I hate.
I’m apparently getting every new service because I have twitter as well.

Character Ideas:
In the past I tend to write about artists. Photographers, painters, graphic designers, one after the other. I think this one should be something different. A teacher? That’s not new, but it’s new to me. Maybe I could take a page out of Aimee Bender’s book. Figuratively. But check out An Invisible Sign of My Own if you get a chance.
My relief from work should...
I just can’t seem to be able to write as of late. I don’t know where this writer’s block comes from. I haven’t taken a fiction class in over a year, but I don’t seem to remember having trouble coming up with stories in the past. I have my last short story at UNCW due Wednesday and I’ve barely started. Sure, I’ve written a conversation or two, jotted down...
I think I’m going to try to use tumblr much more frequently. I don’t know if this has to do with my five year shift away from the angst-ridden livejournal, or rather the lack of vows ending the word tumblr. I’m going with the lack of vowels, since MSTRKRFT’s new album appears as a sign in that direction.
I’m stuck at this desk for an average of ten hours a week and...

Early Mornings
You know, when I signed up for four 8am shifts a week, I didn’t think it would get to me too much, but now my body wakes me up at 7am every day and I start getting tired around 10pm. I feel like an old man, always turning down invitations to go out to bars, always stating I have to work in the morning. I feel as if I’m always giving excuses, but goddamn do I get so tired. I’m...
