By: Sleep Sunshine Judging by the box office (and one should, never ever ever, judge by the box office), Lisa Cholodenko‘s alt. family drama, The Kids Are All Right, is irrelevant in the face of Inception‘s nearly 143 million dollar box office accumulation. In four weeks of release (one more than Inception), the movie has [...]

Sleep Sunshine Reads “I Am Lane” @ 42 Degrees N. Latitude
Hello Loyal Guests! Today, I have something special for you. A video. Of me. Reading. My. Poetry. Thursday, May 20th 2010, Story Studio Chicago hosted a “Writers Read Showcase” at 42 Degrees N. Latitude in Chicago. I read my poem, “I Am Lane.” Here it is, in all its twisted, blurry glory. Thanks for watching.

Epic
This morning, while on the pot, (I washed my hands, I promise) I read an interesting profile in Rolling Stone about Jamie Tworkowski, the teen-suicide-Internet-sensation, and founder of TWLOHA, a non-profit organization committed to providing an Internet outlet for suicidal teens.

Thank You, Uncle Humanity
My last post was really, really, REALLY dark. I know that. But true to my heading, I’m a swinging kind of man (not like that, people, as in mood variation). Sometimes, it’s interesting to drink a bottle of wine, dunk your hands in paint, and splatter a blank canvas, see what comes out. Let me [...]
I Think I Broke My Wishbone
I talk a lot about choices and decisions in my blog, mainly because I struggle a lot in both areas. I’m an extremely analytical person, who is prone to spending long hours poring over the details of a decision, stretching out potential ramifications years into the future (if I choose to do this, then my [...]
A Wonderful Monday Morning…Pre-Coffee Even
So, it’s Monday morning again, either the first day of the week or the second (depending on how you categorize that crazy anomaly Sunday), and I’ve spent the morning since six AM sitting on my parent’s veranda watching my two sisters and my mother gather around the coffee maker, each watching each drip of the black [...]
