This is my 700th review.
I was planning on just one-starring this with,
"Sleeps with me, but never calls."
But I deserve some credit for being a good lay...

The naked, descending notes on the opening track of Radiohead's Kid A fall into a schizophrenic scatter of ambient sounds. I remember first understanding this album in New York when I plugged in at the Museum of Natural History and it transformed my…More »
I don't have a lot of money. I don't have cable. I don't speak Italian. I can't drive stick. My share values have tanked. I don't smile enough. I'm not particularly well-read. I don't use the left side of my brain enough. I don't own an iPhone. I…More »

My mom makes me weak. My dad makes me depressed.
There are many things I wish I wasn't. Restless. Impatient. Emotional. Delusional. Arugula. And so I blame my flaws on my folks, focusing on what I lack genetically rather than the good I possess.…More »

In April, I met a girl who changed my life. I remember that first glance, the initial kick, followed by the uncontrollable flutter from catching her smile. Everything was routine then, while I found myself preoccupied with entertaining my mom, who…More »

There are so many paths in life, it's sometimes difficult finding the proper one.
Some paths are easier than others, meandering on slight inclines that comfortably rest at happy elevations. Life is gentle and quiet, and you're left relatively…More »
San Francisco.
On a night when I wasn't feeling so well, I took a long solitary walk. My iPod conveniently broke down before I left, so I had to abandon it. It was better this way, as I was forced to listen to the sounds of the city.
I walked a few…More »

I'll never understand the unquestioning conviction people hold about something as vast as God. It's not that I don't believe in God, rather I don't presume an understanding of its thoughts and intentions. If an entity could craft something as…More »
The window seat offers a certain authority while flying. Like a hillside villa or a mansion in the Hamptons, I've successfully distanced myself from the bustling troubles of the aisle. My elbows remain unbruised, and the luxury of a solid surface for…More »
I initially wanted my 600th review to be in New York City, but it seems more appropriate to give the honor, or whatever honor such a meaningless title can hold, to the City of Boston.
Boston formed for me a solid launching pad for the rest of my…More »
I like to think of bad experiences as opportunities to collect really great stories, the chance to find new adventure.

I love cafes.
I really do.
They make me feel so at ease. But the ones I love most of all are the really quirky ones... the cluttered cafes with lots of crazy people sitting at mismatched tables. That's the type of place that makes me feel the most…More »
My life is changing.
A girl I was absolutely crazy about recommended two movies before she left town. It's weird when a person asks you to experience things that changed their life. The films become something of a diary. It's almost hard to watch. The…More »
We had a little band in college that would get together and jam in an old, dirty garage. It wasn't much, but it was enough for three dumb kids still stuck on GnR and Metallica to express themselves. And when you're a little brat like I was back then,…More »
Through looking glass I see
a brilliant cast of clarity,
shiny stars so far away
illuminate this hollow cage,
but clouds diffuse light
