The Kindness of Strangers

· 🌡️ 79°F

Does anyone have a truck? I need help today or tonight, if possible.

but speaking of the kindness of strangers...
last night while checking out at Walgreen's, I came up short on cash. The guy behind me bought my ciggs for me. The same thing at the same place happened a week ago. Those men sure were kind. Goes to defy the ol' rude Yankee stereotype. and that my friends goes to show you can't buy into that stereotype shit. I've been saying it for years but my home place down yonder still gets knocked on all the time with stereotypes.


Whoever you are, I have always depended on the kindness of strangers.

and so... after getting drunk and then drinking an entire bottle of Jägermeister at 5 in the morning, I didn't make the truck ride to Georgia. Now I'm laying in my stark apartment necked. I'm sure my family hates me right now. I think Buffalo loves me though.

freaked out

· 🌡️ 47°F

My sister called this morning and told me my Grandma , MawMaw, fell and broke her hip. When I was a young teen my Granny fell and broke her hip. Then Granny went to live with some relatives in NC. then they put her in a home so she came back to Georgia and stayed in a home there. Then she had a stroke and died when I was 16. So I'm all freaked out. My Mawmaw is only 78 and my Granny was 86 when she died. Whatever, I love Mawmaw. I'm all worried. My Dad says she's in good hands. I just don't know.

"lackawanna five"

· 🌡️ 54°F

I just got back from a screening at hallwalls. A filmmaker named Lynn Hershman is making a movie about Steve and his case. Somebody brought up the lackawanna five and that made me wonder. Who were the Lackawanna five? What exactly were they charged with? What was the evidence against them? When were they arrested? What was their economic stance and so on....

D'Orowing from Weimar just sent me this message, I think it's sweet.

"One strong picture is in my memory: your dark brown eyes.
I believe that I could recognize you in many years because of your
eyes. Because of the color, the round shape and especially because of
the eye's movements (like dancing) when you talked. Your eyes
maneuvered, satellites alike, looking for joining to "another" world."
