THE STRUGGLE

i look foward to being bored with all the good fortune on its way.

My favorite diaries:

eb0nie profile - diary
comments: we met at work. i tend to be drawn to and get along with those that go thru fucked up shit by themselves, but still find a way to keep pushin'. she spills it all out daily, no holds barred. i've known ebo since 2000, and she still surprises me.
orgami profile - diary
comments: LOTS to read. a good soul lies here it seems.

My favorite music:

esthero
comments: randomly found breath from another for $.79 and bought it on a whim. serendipity like a muthafucka! don't know if i'll buy the new cd, but the single is off the chain. i missed the recent gig in sf, but i miss everything. whatever.

update April 6, 2020: Sorry, we just had 8+ hours downtime due to a server problem. Restoring from backups took soooo long, but everything is back and no data was lost. Ay yay yay! Anyhow, hope everyone is well with the virus stuff.
