Kate Greenstreet interviewed me for Kickingwind.com and it's up today:

So that's fun.

My brother and his wife are in town and I'm going to try to squeeze them into some poetry readings, but I think I'm gonnna have to sneak up on them, like, O look this bar has a poetry reading going on...

I love this overcast weather, it makes me feel like I'm at the beach.

I thought Rigoberto Gonzalez was reading this weekend too, but I can't find it posted anywhere. Hm.

This is why I have to write things down.

I feel delicious. I just slept for 12 hours.

If I were you I would go to this reading on Sunday:
