Hot: Having slept off a pretty bad hangover during most of Saturday, I had lots of opportunity to dream, and dream I did! I had to prevent a girl from unfolding a finely made wooden table into a pentagram on the floor to initiate what would have been a really destructive ritual. Looking out the [...]
Hot: The premise behind this project is very simple: Choose a Tarot card (only shuffling for the first draw). Dissect the visuals on the card and write down their most basic symbolic elements (from opinion/personal preference). Look up details of that Tarot card from tarot books, 777 and other cross-cultural references. Create a visual and/or [...]
Hot: Preface: If you’re following me on Twitter, you may have seen my non-stop barrage of updates relating to a trip I am currently still on, a trip to Portland Oregon for the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival. What follows are a few selected tweets (in chronological order), and my hand-written journal entries. Each will be [...]
Hot: I do most of my dreaming in the morning. That’s just the way it is. And this morning, I did a LOT of it. Here’s a brief overview: Dreamt my dad was still alive because he’d been sent on a Top Secret Mission that involved faking a serious illness, but wound up being marked [...]

Hot: http://www.shelfari.com/giania I was tipped off by someone on my LJ friends list yesterday that there was indeed a social site based around books! Thank goodness. I’d been saying for ages I wish I had some place to collect a list of everything I’d read. At one point I tried to keep a .txt file [...]
Hot: Do you long for the days of ‘zines? Running off to follow loud bands who were either extremely concerned or extremely unconcerned with the way of the world? Dressing however you felt like, and sometimes with the express goal of freaking out the normals? Well I more-or-less don’t because I missed the whole thing. [...]
Hot: I couldn’t tell you why but I take such a perverse amount of pleasure in the Xs that keep cropping up in place of where my actual “friends” used to be. It’s almost enough to let this account sit here until this site officially implodes in on itself. Unfortunately it’s become such a haven [...]
Hot: I was standing outside in the back parking lot of my apartment building with some people, talking about I don’t even remember what. It was night time approaching early morning and rather cloudy. All of a sudden there was a noise in the air like dozens of planes. Flood lights popped on to periodically [...]
