Diary: October, 1991.

I was in 7th grade, and had recently auditioned for, and cast in, the Junior High Drama Club’s inaugural production of The Wizard of Oz. I was to play the Wizard. The play quickly became my new social group and, between that and band, I must have asked five or six girls to go out with me.

Diary: In October, 2003

Actually, for a moment of overlap… at the very end of September I vaccumed and finish cleaning out my house in Flint, met with the landlord and retrieved the deposit, and said goodbye to the 1600 block of Maryland Ave. I renewed my license, spent the night at my parents, and the next day my dad drove be down to Chicago.

– Why is it that day after day, I never get done all, or even a fair chunk, of what I need to get done? I did, however, some reading of Bellairs’ House with a Clock in its Walls.

Gravitane 7, 30.

– I am all kinds of groggy and out-of-sorts this morning. Anyway, on Friday I spent the day attempting (often unsuccessfully) to devise applications for jobs in Chicago.

Body: Compelling Intangibles.

from my journal:

Last Thurs. 10/18… before Mark and I went to see Unkle I hopped from one Barnes and Noble to the next and it was like the past. That moment of darkness when fall has finally fallen thick and dense and dead.

Gravitane 3, 30.

– Yesterday I had quite a day, though I was beat at the end of it. Since so many of us freelancers are leaving in the upcoming weeks (myself included) we all had a pizza party. After work I went to a coffee shop in the Village and did some reading and writing, then went to the Guerrilla Lit reading.
