sleepless in NYC

2010-08-03T23:55:00.002-04:00

here I am, way past 11 PM and I am still awake! Should I go to the gym more or perhaps exhaust myself spending more time having extreme amounts of fun every day to avoid this horrifying scenario? All I know is I wish I was more tired.

precious...

2010-07-13T13:57:00.003-04:00

you cry when things don't meet your expectations
but I realized it's because you, not unlike a child,
have not lain to rest your expectation for only the best in life,
bless your heart, may you remain in such a place,
unwilling to lower your standards, refusing acceptance of suffering,
nor have you yet come to consider the things you will not ever be or do:
oh how have we both I hope something still to learn!

excerpt from Deep Economy by Bill McKibben,
Chapter Title: All for One, or One for All
the passage quoted below proceeds from and has just concluded noting "the new religious idea of the Protestant movement"

"...As Marx and Engels put it in their classic summary: 'All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices and opinions, are swept away; all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air.'
All of these liberations have brought benefit, often great benefit: they have helped produce the ideas we hold dearest, such as democracy; they helped spur the civil rights and women's revolutions; and they have made us much, much richer. But most of them also carried costs, sometimes harder for us to see. We surrendered a fixed identity - a community, an extended family, deep and comforting roots - for, quite literally, the chance to 'make something of ourselves.' Now we create our own identities. We build from scratch the things our ancestors once took for granted. This liberation is exhilarating, and it is daunting; it is exciting, and it is lonely."

here I omit a paragraph referencing Adam Smith and the concept of pursuit of self-interest i.e. "making something of oneself" amounting to general welfare of all...

"In recent decades, however, this process of liberation seems to me to have come close to running its course. What ties are left to cut? We change religions, spouses, towns, professions with ease. Our affluence isolates us ever more. We are not just individualists; we are hyper-individualists such as the world has never known."

receipts

2010-07-04T14:14:00.003-04:00

thinking about all these restaurant receipts piling up on my table. trying to figure out why I keep them. think I have/have always had this fear of forgetting so many things I have done, though this does not result in taking pictures of everything I do as would be expected. no, the receipts are from mostly restaurants and are reminders of where all the money went perhaps; it feels somewhat desperate, unimportant, but I keep thinking there is going to be this time when I want to get every receipt out and recreate the life I lived, or at the very least use it as a structure around which to recreate for myself the other memories that are strung between those instances. Being unable to look back with enough gratitude, looking forward to no thing in particular, longing for unknowns and unforeseens, loathing the stifling predictability for which I have only myself (and to some degree a crippling amount of debt or underpaying job dependingly) to blame... this is some of my chronically current lot... Maybe the receipts are simply a testament to the value I place in eating?

should I...

2010-02-04T13:41:00.002-05:00

look for an apartment? what kind of apartment do I want? how much can I afford to spend? should I let my brother put money into it? if so what percentage is appropriate? should I look for the cheapest lowliest housing available and save money until I can truly afford to get my own place? will I live to see that day? maybe I should focus on getting a band started? should I be playing guitar right now? I never quite seem to get around to it and that certainly wont do... is being in a band going to alleviate this feeling I have about the worthlessness of my own life? do I have something redeeming to share that can jumpstart my heart back into former compassion for this life and those living it? how come everyone seems so sure of things? what do they know? seriously not sarcastically. I thought I knew a lot once. I used to give speeches. I used to ramble and muse. people had to listen and quite possible hated me like I loathe others now: for their certainty, for their level of engagement in the things they are surrounded by. how they get up in the morning to go out and do whatever it is. why am I so jealous all the time? is it because they are not me? do I hate myself? have I no sense of humor? has this cynicism been forced upon me or have I welcomed it, egging it on, incubating, feeding it? where have all my friends gone? do they still think I am the person they used to love? am I somehow still that person? were they simply amused but not anything more? did I scare them away with the hard questions I asked and to which I found answers, complicating ones that begat the deflection of gazes or physical removal from my audience. Have I uncovered nothing of value in my years, reducing myself to this deflated and jealous, hypersensitive and cynical nucleus of malcontent? what role have my skin problems in all this? have my natural inclinations been deformed so, turning my probing and analytical mind on myself? how many times can I take being let down before turning away? am I a spurned lover of life? have I been burned slowly over these last 10 years and shown a truth about misunderstanding fundamental life approach skills? have I been fighting nature or rejoining it with all this organic madness? wave after wave of media washes over me, seas of citizens with x's on their eyes embody the handed down and force fed, unseen agendas govern. have I been a demonstration of the futility of opposition, a "clinic" to borrow from the lexicon of my failed career, may have been put on by yours truly. even as I try to concede I have to wonder if I really did miss the point or if I made headway? Where is my support? Where are the ones who share my values? Do we who try too hard to understand fail essentially to understand? I am exhausted.

aujourd'Huy

2010-01-25T17:34:00.002-05:00

so I caulked my bathtub today... no big deal. learned not to get that foam gap filler on my hands. learned silicone does not light on fire when using matches with it drying on your hands to light a cigarette. also, silicone is easier to get off from dry hands while the gap filler required repeated soapy washings. not that all of it anywhere close to being off my fingers yet. just enough for me to type a post about it. hardware store guy prepared the tube for me, slicing on an angle the plastic tip and then piercing the foil inside. The first tube I bought I thought they told me to stab a whole in top of tube so I knifed it and proceeded to watch it ooze out the top in a large blob. next project a countertop extension and recycling storage? am I moving out of this place or not?

time spent

2009-11-03T17:11:00.003-05:00

when I look back on all the time I spent trying to learn how to live life healthfully I see that much of it was spent to eliminate my own pain; I do not nor have I ever been afraid of any imagined future discomfort mind you, which would be much different, but only hopeful that in some near future by my own doing I could eliminate the discomfort I already endure. On my conscience is whether I shall ever be able to exist in such a future; having spent so much time on this pursuit it has been to my detriment to have lost that time in trying to make a living for myself and to learn how to make enough money to live health conditions or not... do I accept this lot and move on and live with it? Would doing so lead me to a place mentally where I could overcome that which I hadn't enough positive attitude before to accomplish?

a World Series Cup

2009-10-29T00:34:00.002-04:00

got off work tonight and making my way home I noticed a big dude who with Yankees hat and gear almost looked like an umpire to me, noticed he had a stack of plastic cups and wondered if that wasn't a source of pride since to get each one a beer had to be consumed, briefly remembered my own beer drinking days of yesteryear and its pursuant comraderie. Noticed quite a few other Yankees cups stacks and once on the train I deduced that the Yanks and Phillies are undoubtedly in the World Series this year, this very night, in my own town! I felt alone. I felt disconnected, a lot I didnt ask for but I think earned. How many games into it I wondered? Is my brother cheering the Phils from LA?

what if we underestimated inanimate objects

2009-10-19T21:27:00.002-04:00

what if like the cells of our own bodies at the mercy of some invading cancer, rocks (and other fundamental materials of earth) that would seem to have had no remarkable life until re-imagined by the opportunistic intruder were actually at the command or part of a larger more amazing and complex "being", not inanimate for lack of imagination but in service of their function to the larger whole. what if rocks were masters of meditation and contentment was their default and unassailable state, incapable of any jealousy of the animal world with its unfortunate and endless quotidian struggle to satisfy needs both extraneous AND essential, rocks may be the arm of a being so much larger and more powerful than any we can imagine. As we flounder without rock's support beneath our feet, perhaps we should not so quickly relegate it to a world of a lower order, Plotinus.

a tad lengthy?

2009-10-15T01:32:00.003-04:00

so I got rambling yesterday, not sure I could keep that up anyway... who out there is into tea before bed as a calming pleasure? Mint tea tonight, but anything herbal, not caffeinated and non-energizing. Honestly any sort of warm tea-esque beverage makes me breathe more deeply, and just all around love life. Coffee just cant hack it in comparison - its an highly addictive anxiety inducing beverage that leaches minerals from the bloodstream and quite frankly it scares the shit out of me. No thanks, I'll pass. Three cheers for tea.

new starts, soundly sleeping

2009-10-13T23:24:00.003-04:00

hey y'all, I've got a headache but I cant say it hasn't been a pretty great day off. It doesn't take much sometimes guys but... I looked for and found a mattress today after comparison between Sleepy's and ABC here on Broadway and fell in love with one that is only a billion times more than I can afford WITH both parents help as a xmas gift and birthday gift combined (tune of 4G). Anyway, I decided the will to write has come over me and since I already think overtime this is going to be an outlet for me to get it out... todaaayyy...
...Newly pulled from underbed for the colder months, I remembered why I put my brown boots there: one has an air pocket that *whooshes* lightly when I step. No problem I put on my big Audiovox headphones, cranked up daylist XLIV and stomped my way down to the L train. I am taller and feel more aggressive in these brown leather boots, plus my recent leg workouts are some of the first since years ago and my thick soccer legs make me feel sturdy and unassailable. I barely the resisted urge to say "Nice littering, asshole!" to a guy that tossed a piece of paper on the street right in front of me. L train took a while and then skipped my station and without a honk I believe... something many NYers dont know is that if a train is approaching the station and it honks two short honks, the train is not going to stop and it is a warning for people to step back. I can't tell you how many times I have watched people get all excited and ready to board only to find out the train isn't stopping for them a whole 5-10 seconds after me. That's NY time folks. (Why chumps are always running down the stairs to L train platform at Union Square on the south side is for another time). Made it to USquare eventually, scarfed crispy corn Chipotle tacos filled with shredded beef alongside some gossiping nurses and then headed for Sleepy's. Met by a salesman, well groomed, well dressed, hispanic, late 30s, and I realized it had been a while since I had placed myself into the sphere of someone that gets paid when he sells me something. That being said he was not pushy. I told him I slept on a futon of sorts and he seemed pretty sure that everything in his store room would be better than that. I decided to show him stand-offish and skeptical to start and then switched to compliant and warmer; giving the sales man two different looks keeps him undecided in my experience as to which tack he should take with me and keeps me in control without having to listen to lengthy speeches on stuff about which I had not inquired. I liked the Sleep To Live 800 Series Mattress best. He had no card to give me so I left without. Place called Environment had totally dope furniture but no mattresses and said I might try ABC, but warned of incredibly overpriced Hastens products(60K?!). First let me say that ABC is a wonderful place. Not for the budgeted person per se but just a nice place to be... until...

saw this play on broadway tonight, was fairly engaging, got me out of my normal mode of thinking - so often something like this makes it so painfully clear how limiting my own mind can be, how easily it can reduce the breadth of my daily experience to cruel repetition. I nominate art in its simplest definition to be that which disrupts that tendency, something made often simply because it can be made, unassumingly, and which when seen or encountered serves, simply, no more important function for me than to free me from this pursuit of a quotidien perfection, a dehumanizing robotic existence, streamlined and derept of a plenitude of potential realizations and awakenings - my current reading on nirvana leads me to believe that these instances with and within art are the important breaks that allow us a glimpse of, a chance to observe, our own natures and reassess, reconfigure, reevaluate...

Corinne was on the L train today, as it pulled up to U Square 8th Ave bound, she smiled, I was waiting to get on, her to get off, the doors opened, and she giggled, we kissed just outside the train, I got on it, and she headed for the stairs with nary a word exchanged - I saw my onetime lab partner, study partner, and sexual partner, for the first time in months just two days prior - just before that I saw my ex with another guy on the way to work that morning - as Damon Albarn was just serenading me just now, "there's no other way" I came upon a paragraph while reading up on ND vs MD online about a cancer survivor mid struggle "'September 11 changed everything, because I realized that a whole lot of people died that day who had absolutely no choice, and I had a choice and I was choosing to die, and THERE HAD TO BE A BETTER WAY,' she said"; she came out of remission that month and made this realization coincidentally. A band played at Stain two nights ago called Jared Micah & Hats, I posted a pic of them on their myspace page and was just prior to this reading a thank you note from them. Their album, which I have in my possession, is set for release on Sept. 11, 2007. The girl who set the show up on Friday at Stain, a triple bill, walked into Stain last night after playing the night before, about 5 minutes after I finished playing her disc at the bar. Her name is Sharon Van Etten and I love her sound very much.

yet another dream...

2007-04-29T16:31:00.000-04:00

I'm at an Indian restaurant with some people, I dig into my entree, and when I am several bites into it I sense something is not right... is this made of wheat flour? I approach the kitchen staff... "it is? I can't eat it... it's alright, I can't eat it" and I walk away, thinking about how I am going to pay later for that transgression and how I am annoyed that it was not by choice.

I remembered the image just now as I began yet another problem set, yet another MCAT review chapter requiring yet another sheet of that precious yellow paper, so quickly and perilously dwindling...

"Perhaps you have no taste for what I think being a real man is but I shall say that in my opinion it is about not reducing life to black and white, thereby developing a stomach, and then a taste hopefully, for the reality that, simply put, IS. Your refusal to incite violence in response to my conduct is dead on; your willingness to engage me on these matters and share your feelings with me shows that you are very much the man that I felt sure that you were as we were becoming closer friends. The city and my experience here has made me harder and the worse for certain situations, strengthening me to put up with a place that is a continuous assault on my senses. My skin is thicker than ever and NYers have that in common; I can not allow myself to get worked up as easily or angered and perhaps these trangressions are an overt expression of that acclimatization. Lucky to be alive, amongst an awareness of the extreme diversity of living conditions, I am alone up here in NYC and in life; I want you to be a part of my life and I hope you will give it a chance."

Pretty sure I invited or at least emailed about, oh, 40 people, regarding this year's Siren Music Fest at Coney Island and I just wanted to mention that those who responded were indeed in the minority, an extreme minority. I am also happy to note that of my in town amigos here who had no travelling to do to join me I am going to attend this great day on the beach with exactly none of them. Yes, there could be no better time in the history of my life to become a premed student, with the likes of whom I could find no common ground as an undergrad in Virginia some years back, whose inability or unwillingness to join any number of adventures with me seemed only a lack of comprehension of joie de vivre, not a sense of adherence to responsibility, or eye towards the future. Indeed, I am so very happy that there is no one waiting around or calling me to try and derail my studies; I really face no pressure whatsoever to be well rounded or any less serious. Left to my own, I suspect I have always had this inclination, and it will at long last come to sweet fruition. I shall join the bitterer of two types of men, resigned to getting for themselves, out of personal frustration over waiting to receive the bounty of beauty and friendship I deserve, out of the need to forget dreams and create new ones, an end to a suffering comprised of yearning and jealousy. I guess I just wanted to thank my lucky stars that I have no friends and that I could never in all of my life have cared less. New York Cares!

How much more removed from that spirituality I once experienced can I possibly become, and out of what concern for practicality must I find myself inclined to do so many things which seem at best reasonable. Damn. I might even be getting PO'd over here... wait a minute. Not just yet.

Word History: The word opossum takes us back to the earliest days of the American colonies. The settlement of Jamestown, Virginia, was founded in 1607 by the London Company, chartered for the planting of colonies. Even though the first years were difficult, promotional literature was glowing. In one such piece, A True Declaration of the Estate of the Colonie in Virginia,published in 1610, we find this passage: “There are... Apossouns, in shape like to pigges.” This is the first recorded use of opossum, although in a spelling that differs from the one later settled on to reproduce the sound of the Virginia Algonquian word from which our word came. The word opossum and its shortened form possum, first recorded in 1613 in more promotional literature, remind us of a time when the New World was still very new, settlers were few, and the inhabitants for whom the New World was not new were plentiful.

So this guy is a little bit controlling and protective of what's his and then some so we're going to have to work on/whittle away at that.

I have fallen ill!! What with all this blabbering about health yer ole nature boy has met with fate and seen how he naively clings to the possibility of a safety from his immunological weakness and must consider joining the ranks of pill-popping realists. Herbs and minerals, vitamins and green juice, where are you now? Maybe I cut a few corners when I went out drinking three nights in a row to dull the multifaceted displeasure of my present circumstances; perhaps spending time in that smoky Bulgarian disco or that dusty fileroom revealed the timidity of my naturopathic tenets, or that lamb saag that reeked of ammonia or chlorine. A-ha...! I have stopped using the shower filter for the first time in four years... which must filter out huge amounts of chlorine from the tap water only to experience what... respiratory debilitation! Seriously though people, can I really hope to help those in need with the tools I have perhaps prematurely adopted? With these I had nearly threatened my ailing grandparents! Woe is me, folks, but I must sleep now. Be well.
