Posed as a series of insuperabilities
Rode my Bianchi to the lake this morning. It cries out for a silver headset

My friend was hit by a car on Saturday night and broke his arm. He got to his housesit but his keys were gone so he crashed in the abandoned squat. In the morning I brought snacks and found the copy of Conflict Is Not Abuse one former inhabitant gave to another early in the process of abandonment.

Recovering from five hours of sleep followed by fourteen hours of manual labor followed by five hours of sleep by drinking coffee

I've been working manual labor gigs after approaching destitution. Spent two days painting walls white, and today I loaded large potted crepe myrtles into the art museum at 7 am, and back out at 10 pm. In between I had to go play a show with my band. My thighs are jelly. Forty is fun so far.

Last week I coined the portmanteau 'barp'. It refers to the oral equivalent of a shart.

Hanging out in the parking lot of the gas station on Rampart and Governor Nicholls and guessed the wifi password of the Jazz and Heritage Center on the first try. "CongoSquare". Same thing happened in Jackson Square last spring, the password was Pontalba.

I wanted to get day drunk today, but didn't start drinking until 5 and got sidetracked for an hour trying to buy cigarettes in the quarter after a Saints game. Might just go home and read Montaigne's essays while listening to the contemporary classical radio show, my usual Sunday night routine.

I'm forty years old now and I rode a freight train and I'm stuck in Chicago!

Just saw Architecton. Some good shots of industrial processes ruined by a Dune-ass score, interspersed with a luxury goods designer hassling the workmen installing a stone circle on the grounds of his villa. Opens with hashtag stand with Ukraine, closes with bloviation. Nothing interesting to say.

The yard is a jungle and there's a broken truck and airstream back there that I need to get rid of. My neighbor brought her goats over for an hour today and they barely dented it. I'm gonna have to learn to use a weedwhacker

I'm so happy to be back in New Orleans.

Biked from Berkeley to San Rafael this morning. Only 20 miles but maybe the longest ride I've done in the bay.

I'm on a roll with finding old, out of print books by Thomas Disch. The other day it was Fun With Your New Head and today it's Getting Into Death, another great collection. I hate that Disch seems so forgotten these days, but it makes me eager to preserve these ancient hardbacks.

Struck up a conversation with a lady on the train yesterday and we talked for hours. We were not flirting and she bought me three beers. Connecting with strangers is a survival skill that I worked very hard on in my 20s, and on this trip I've been alarmed to feel that I've let it atrophy.

Drank coffee and bought four books at Bridge Thrift in Highland Park even though I'm living out of two bicycle panniers this month. Really excited for the Fisher and the Lara.

Found a beat-to-hell Long Haul Trucker abandoned in a park last night. This morning I told my crustlord friend that I was going to flip the frame and they said "That's bastard." I said it was a come-up. They think I should just give it to someone. More as the situation develops.

Leaving for a month on the amtrak this afternoon! I haven't packed yet and am sitting outside a coffee shop on my phone. Aah!

Last night my band got to open for a zoomer hardcore band from Florida at an all-ages show. The youths flipped their shit when I went plblblblbl with my finger between my lips at the end of our last song. It was a beautiful night and made me so excited about playing music :)

It's a travesty that Mister Fred's home on the greenway has been demolished. Ornamental hermits have a long history and New Orleans may have been the last city in the US to carry on this tradition.

Really enjoyed The Croning by Laird Barron. Pushes Lovecraftian misogyny and xenophobia to absurd heights while playing completely straight, to arrive at a completely isolated, hopeless, and horrifying position. Shades of Disch and Ari Aster, without their authorial sneering. A romp.
