    Hey hey!

  • We Had to Memorize Phone Numbers, and Write Them Down

    Hey hey!

    Matthew Schneider and I have been friends for a long, long, long, long time!

    We have!

    Haha!

    We have!

    And through it all we have maintained a sense of connection or a sense of closeness and trust, and happiness, and humor that I have not had or that I have not found with any other person, no, no, including the woman that I had been married to!

    No!

    Matt and I did get together not too, too long ago now, we did, and we did think about how good it was that we did have it as children, and how things have changed since the late 80s, and since the early 90s!

    We did!

    We did!

    Hahaha!

    We did!

  • And It’s Like, “Will You Stop Talking about The Rolling Stones!”

    Hey!

    Paul Erdmann and I had been in a band some time ago!

    It was a band called GhostHandPunch, and it was very, very, very popular!

    It was!

    Ooh!

    Ooh!

    It was!

    Paul did come over, and he and I did take a trip down the lane where it is that memories and where experiences and where our own successes do reside, and we did talk about what it was like to be moderately famous and well liked, and living a musicians and a singer’s and a songwriter’s lifestyle!

    GhostHandPunch did record one final album before disbanding, and if you do follow the link below, you sure, sure, sure can hear it!

  • There’s No Prep for This

    Hey!

    Hey!

    Tara Lenertz and I have known each other for a very, very, very long time, we have!

    Hahaha!

    We have!

    But not until recently, when she and when I did join one another for a deliberate dive into who she had been at a certain age, and what it was that did shape our own views or our own perspectives and relationships with the world and with each other that I did learn so, so very much about who it was who she had been as a teenager, and as a young woman!

    Gosh!

    Gosh!

    I did think, and I still do think that she is really, really cool y’know, and that she is totally, totally, totally the smartest and the most clever and considerate person that I do know!

    Haha!

    I do!

  • All of the Collective Experience That All of Us Have Does Affect Us as a Collective

    Hey!

    Mackenzie Kouba is a local fine artist and women’s and disabled rights activist and friend, and I did ask her to come on over to the apartment that I do rent, and to shoot the breeze or to talk about what it was that we were doing and were thinking about when it was that we were younger!

    I did!

    I did!

    For sure!

    I did!

    And you do know what!

    The resulting exchange of ideas and memories and convictions is in no way disappointing or bothersome or boring!

    No!

    No!

    No, it is not!
