IV: Denial, Yearning, Derision, Acceptance.
Denial: When I was little, I was sort of denominationally challenged. When my dad was living with his girlfriend, her son and I would go to church almost every Sunday that I was staying there. The Church on Ocean Park was so unconventional and everyone was so into the ideas of love and light and singing and painting and doing whatever makes you happy that I guess I experienced the Christianity...

Birthday was a success, three days of love and care. This morning I heard a knock at the door. ”Who is it?” “It’s reality, I’m here to steal you away again.” “Fuck.”

Woe Is Me
I am fully aware of my lameness, but I am getting seriously irritated with Netflix. Tonight seemed to be the perfect night to settle in with some jasmine green tea and Lady & the Tramp. But no, Netflix decided to make my Disney movie of choice “unavailable”. Then, I thought of the perfect substitute: Dr. Doolittle with Rex Harrison (Eddie Murphy can go to hell). But once again,...
