A fantastic interview with Guillermo del Toro, director of Pan’s Labyrinth and Hellboy, in which he discusses his ideas behind film and the process of relaying innocence and horror using the medium. His approach to emotionally enriched ideas portrayed on screen is very interesting, something that definitely knocks him up to the list of my [...]

Today I managed to not only play guitar for the longest period of time in at least a year but also managed to re-learn a song. I tuned a full-step down and went through Dream Theater’s “Endless Sacrifice”, rediscovering the joy I once had while playing the instrument. I played it for Jessie, who claims [...]
Itchy-Scratchy

An interesting article I stumbled upon while visiting the Thomas Ligotti Forum that proves just how strange the world really is.
The Itch: A comical title to an article that deserves no such thing. There is an essay that takes over about halfway down the page that doesn’t require reading to get the point. I’ve pasted [...]
If I could trade, I would.

I think I would be fine if my days didn’t start on such bad notes. If perhaps I were in a good mood upon waking I might have the ability to keep my cool for the duration of the day. Right now, irritated. Overwhelmed because there’s too much to take care of, on both my [...]

I left you at about 1 or 2 very early this morning, I am back around noon. You would think after ten hours of sleep I’d be ready to run the mile nineteen times…This “sleeping problem” is worse than I could have ever imagined. To the average person sleep is everything they need to refuel [...]
Stuck In A Dream That Is Killing My Sleep

1 am, still awake. Nothing unusual I suppose, nothing at all. I always promise myself, and my girlfriend, that I will “get to bed early” so I don’t end up sleeping all day. I almost always break that promise. Sleeping medication you say? Tried it, tried many. Nothing works like it should for me, they [...]

I’ve fiddled around with blogging before but I’ve never really kept at it. Myspace was my medium for writing but I have recently canceled my account there. Between my pages at Deviant Art and Writer’s Cafe, I find myself here. I will hopefully be updating this as a sort of “Insightful Journal” of somekind; insightful [...]
