Priceless experiences outside the classroom. People actually stopping me to ask for directions when I’m obviously lost at all times. Get a clue, people. I might as well have “tourist” or “mug me” tattooed on my face. Witnessing a man in a collared shirt and tie taking a leak while he stood on a high-traffic…

My Life As a Hermit
Law school will change my life. I don’t mean that in some spiritual or metaphysical sense. I mean, it will effectively change the way I live my life. Up until this point, I’ve been a lazy bum. Since I finished undergrad in June 2003, I’ve been bumming around and working part time at a retail-clothing…
Oh Crap
KZ a lawyer? Nah, he doesn’t have the disposition for it. He’s not aggressive enough. He’s even kind of a slacker, if you really want to hear the truth. Well guess what, suckers? It’s true. Law school starts on Wednesday, August 11th for me. And you know what? I’m terrified. I hardly knew at the…
Friday, I’m in Love
And I truly am.
Fuck Off, Cops
Pulling me over and giving me a speeding ticket when I’m less than a block away from my house? I feel safer already, you fucking assholes in hats. You get no love or sympathy from me when your asses are shot down by criminals. As far as I’m concerned, putting your life in danger every…

Kevin: oh right, the 9 bucks commment Kevin: see, i take so little accountability for the shit i say Kevin: it’s all disconnected from me as…
All I Needed
I may feel like a train wreck, both physically and emotionally, but that’s not nearly enough to make me overlook the fact that today at the supermarket, this hot Asian girl totally checked me out while I was shopping for canned soup. If laughter is the best medicine, then I’d say that the benign attention…
It’s Just the Flu Talking
Whether it’s food poisoning or a stomach flu, the fact is I’ve been in total agony for the past two days. And true to human nature (or at least my own sentimental, maudlin nature), I’ve done a fine job of mirroring my emotional state with my physical state. This hardly seems like the time to…
All I Have Left to Say
It was almost love. Goddamn, it was almost love.
On Love and the Prospect of Loss
My grandfather almost died this week. Well, his odds were supposedly fifty-fifty, which is damn near close enough to “almost” if you ask me. He formed a hernia as a young man, and it finally caught up to him at the age of eighty-six. On Wednesday, my grandfather began vomiting at his nursing home and…
