for efficiency’s sake.

john knight is my scapegoat for my blogging absence.

being a large contributor to the grant cogan audience, and now being a resident fifteen feet from my mental circus, my desire to repeat words into type is cutting slim. not to mention my desire to ramble. so essentially, being concise is now the name of the game, and being mindfully aware of the incessant circle of saying-something-witty-to-be-cool-but-not-really-to-be-cool-because-you’re-too-cool-by-dissing-coolness-which-inadvertedly-makes-you-cool-again-but-you-don’t-want-to-admit-it-because-being-cool-is-uncool-unless-it’s-hip-because-then-it’s-relevant-thus-making-it-cool-and-even-desireable-but-cool-is-relative-and-so-is-everything-else-but-still…-saying-something-witty-is-still-cool-and-desireable-which-begs-the-question-now-where-is-my-thesaurus is a focus, because we all fall prey to that.

blessings. and hopes that i don’t kill my plant, and that the blood red carpet and checkerboard tiles that is the Enterprise becomes a host of incredible memories shared and loved by many. our doors are open, come and hang out.
