picture adam sandler standing right up against phillip seymour hoffman. they're an inch apart and ready to pound each other's faces in. and then come the most threatening words i've ever heard in my life: I have a love in my life, and it gives me more strength than you could ever understand.



i got out of work a little early to watch punch-drunk love. such a beautiful film. my words won't do it justice. just go watch it.







i spent the day completely unsupervised at work. they trust me enough to get things done on my own, but totally underestimate my abilities sometimes. i completed my list of tasks in 2 hours. i spent the rest of the day (unsuccessfully) trying to hack into a computer, so i could check my email and maybe play some iSketch. i took half of a lunch to walk around and eat a caramel sundae. what does one do to kill time without internet access and solitaire? i tried to write. this is the best i could do at work:

a reflection of you peeking through the gap between a crisp, corporate suit and the half-asleep homeless man he's inching away from,



a reflection of you resting on the surface of a scratched-up subway window that darkens as the sun ducks behind the city's skyline,



a reflection of you betraying its owner as it exposes the weight of your eyelids, the weakness of your jaw, the wandering of your spirit,



a reflection of you growing stronger and more true as the glass struggles to keep separated the outside darkness from the light flickering within.
