Summer is around the corner and I am looking forward to…

I can’t wait for summer and that is a rare thing for me to say. This winter has been horrible. I hate driving in inclement weather. It’s the worst thing in the world, especially after living in New Mexico for seven years. I got so used to driving in no weather that coming back to constant storms sucks. It sucks. I’ve been back on cape for about a year and a half and I still haven’t gotten used to…

Beliefs or Ideas? Daily Prompt: Never Surrender

There is this speech in Kevin Smith’s “Dogma” that Chris Rock gives about beliefs and ideas. It always rang true to me.

Why is that important for this prompt? I think people who have beliefs, like Rock says, are willing to die for them – they never surrender. People who have ideas are more akin to change.

I’d love to come on here…

My five favorite summer smells

Prompt:

S’mores, salty ocean breezes, veggie burgers on the grill, sweaty people on the bus — what’s the smell you associate the most with summer?

Me:

1. Fresh Grass: Summer means the start of football and there is nothing like walking onto a field of freshly cut grass. It almost has a stinging quality to it, a sweet sting that signifies the start of the season.
2. Sausage on the Grill: I’m getting…

Prompt:

Today’s Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year (in the Northern Hemisphere). How are you taking advantage of the extra hours of light this time of year? Do you like it, or do you already miss earlier sunsets?

Me:

I freaking miss sunsets! Ever since I’ve gotten my camera, taking pictures of sunsets has been one of my favorite things to do. It’s insanely weird to have to wait until 9:00 p.m. to do that. While I really dislike the cold on the east coast, I miss the early sunsets of winter. Take a look at some of my favorite sunset photos:

Insomniac muse girl let’s cut the bull

Shit. I’m sick of writing to someone who

Isn’t there – don’t you wonder where I am?

Do you need me like I want you? Need

You? Believe in you? Is it there for you too?

Insomniac muse girl give me a sign,

Send me a line to end this poor sad rhyme.

Tell me something you really need to say –

Tell me forever and tell me today.

Insomniac muse girl there will…

I took these in the summer, but I don’t think I uploaded them. I love Cape Cod in the summer!

My “Inside Llewyn Davis” #Movie #Review

It’s hard for me not to try to relate to the titular character in “Inside Llewyn Davis“. I too have slept on my fair share of couches. I too have spent many a night in plenty a bar getting drunk while listening to some local musician live out a fantasy. I too am kind of a dick that love/hates everything.

I liked the recent Cohen…

Five of my favorite Twitter accounts

I’ve been spending way more time on Twitter than I usually do. Part of it has been in an effort to get off of Facebook for awhile and Part of it has been a shameless attempt to try to drive up follows for this itty bitty blog of mine. Regardless, in the process I have Twitter accounts I find to be quite awesome for a reason or two. Here is my list:

Favorite Brand:

It’s SUMMER! Time to pretend to be a writer again.

INSTANT REVIEW: Meh

It’s SUMMER! And now that I have the majority of my days free, I think I am going to watch just a ton of movies this summer. Like, a lot. I want to see so many movies I get on a first name basis with the dude who serves the Pepsi (There’s beer now too!). There’s a $21.99 monthly subscription at the big theater on cape. I think I might be taking advantage of it for the next…
