HI!

I just remembered this website exists. What a lovely thing!! I forgot that I ever even wrote things on here I think all my past entries were pulled out from a usually dormant piece of goop from far back in my head whose drawing out was only made possible by this website's specific intermediate existence between being public and so obscure that no one looks at it... so I can write with abandon (for content, quality, style, coherency, embarrassment, etc) while still formally believing in its potential for merit (motivating the writing in the first place). What is different now since last time... well spatio-temporally I'm in both a new living arrangement (apartment) and further into the future. But the apartment actually isn't that far from where I've lived for the past two years and the time isn't that far either. Brain-wise I think I've gotten a lot smarter and more lucid and I no longer occupy myself with stupid things/thoughts as often anymore (not that they are actually stupid... and they are still really fun...). Right now I'm in the middle of reading Schopenhauer and about to start an immediate reread of Ferrante with many forthcoming plans for Bakhtin and a reread of Elif Batuman's The Idiot + Either/Or. And it's so hot all the time. Furthermore in my immediate future I have a plan to make a coffee cake (maybe in 12 hours or so). I suppose that whenever I eventually come back and reread this I'll know if that plan came to fruition. See you!!!
