I have attached two pictures.

The first -- “New Hand,” – explains why I’ve been posting sporadically lately. It’s all over now, though, and it was – wait for the loving cliché – easily the happiest day of my life so far. Sara G. kicks my ass. The DJ played about 92% music I provided, including “Sugar in the Marmalade,” a shitty Canto-Pop song that makes all of my friends laugh, and Derek Kurth’s acoustic, ballad version of “Baby Got Back.”

The second – “New Job,” – shows some of the things I’ve been able to get recently from my new job. For SIXTEEN WEEKS AT A TIME!!! I get paid to touch books. Somebody likes me.

And now, I work 8:30am to 5pm. I get to have a life again. I get to plan more than a week in advance, for the first time in…maybe four years.


I get to write every day.
I get to read every day.
I have goddamned surround sound for my kung-fu movies.

The Coolest Girl in the World and I walked into the wedding reception to “The Imperial March.”
I got to profess my love to her in my wedding vows, which mentioned Giant Robots.

I am the happiest/luckiest crazy-ass motherfucker on the planet.

Who will be back to writing soon, and who has noticed that his Tourette’s is a lot more subdued after quitting his old job…
