on writing

until I went to the dentist today and got whacked for the rest of the day by a combo of headache, novocaine, and the lingering effects of nitrous, I was spending most of my free moments (in particular, on the vanpool van) writing bits and pieces of “Part II.” damn good feeling. it’s not like [...]

today amazon is not my friend

so a little while ago I got an amazon.com credit card (god help me), which came with a $30 promotional certificate. today I finally went digging through my email, having pretty much decided what I was going to get.
