Oh! I feel it.

I feel the cosmos.

People need to stop talking like Napolean Dynamite. It's becoming the next Austin Powers, in that it was only funny the first 500 fucking times I heard it. Of course, maybe I'll change my mind if I ever actually see the movie, but the thing is, I no longer want to because I feel like I've seen it vicariously through others already. Gosh!

What am I up to lately? You didn't ask, so I had to. Between running, trying to finish some books I've had for several months, playing with vector art in Photoshop, finally learning some Capoeira songs (after more than a year of playing, I'm just now learning songs = I suck), practicing the berimbau (this I am not bad at), and fleeing BG/Nashville every weekend, I'm getting really good at not being bored when I'm not at work.

Jesus, my writing is becoming more abominable every day. It is abominablizing. I think I need to read some more literature, as opposed to news articles (which are supposedly written at a 3rd grade reading level or something), so I can remember what actual prose looks like. Any recommendations? This Dave Eggers book is pretty good and all, but he's got his own style that I will not try to ape/bastardize. I need something more standardized and less stylized. Does that make sense? As a senior in high school, I took a class called Advanced Writing, but I mostly just remember writing a lot of Tool and FNM lyrics.

My nose hurts from a meia lua I took in the face yesterday. I love getting my ass kicked.
