I’m a librarian at heart. I cherish the collection of images I’ve built and organized over years of dissecting the printed material that’s fallen into my hands. The kinds of revelations and surprises that occur when juxtaposing new combinations keeps my writing process fresh and amusing. If collaging is like assembling a puzzle, then maybe the collage is only finished when the composition reflects some kind of inner clarity… hmm

This is a Rec on how to stay sane, not how to get out, unfortunately.
I have been (mostly) unemployed for like almost a year aside from short stints or gigs. it’s been awful awful awful BUT AMC A List became my light at the end of the tunnel, truly.
$25 a month for 3 “free” movies every week. I use it as a treat after trudging through applications or to have something to look forward to. And, yes, you can watch as many free movies as you want on your laptop in your room but having a place to go or a plan at the end of a grueling day is great.

I love entering through the department stores. I love the metallic smell of the fountains, and estimating the amount of change thrown there. I love the manicured displays and the wigs they put on the mannequins. I love Orange Julius. I love washing my hands in the sink at Bath and Body Works. I love having a place to walk indoors when it’s raining, and this was a crucial feature during the years I lived in Boston. The Prudential Center is open 24/7, and I loved wandering around it in the middle of the night.

My old friends Ryan and Evan introduced me to the idea of a “friendship initiation ceremony” in high school. Theirs was honestly really fun for me, but I’m not gonna be uncool and say what it was. My own initiations (punishments? lol) were vigils where I’d park my car in a quiet and dark spot and play this album front to back and cry. With the song “Rapture” tears were unavoidable. If someone could sit through the trial of my quiet sobs 1-on-1 then I was certain our bond was strong. I did that ritual four times.

Over the last couple of years I became super addicted to the coziness of “Sword and Sorcery” fantasy movies. My favorites are the ones made circa the 80’s: Red Sonja, Apple, The Last Unicorn, Masters of the Universe, and Beastmaster; which is simply my favorite of the genre. In a broader sense, these movies share the kind of sentiment I love to feel when watching B-movies: sloppy execution cannot destroy the charisma embedded in a labor of love.
