Swinging From Power Lines

My name's Joe. I am: - A musician - A writer - An art advocate (because I'm horribly untalented at art) - An enjoyer of films - A lyric hound I honestly never know what to write in "About Me" sections...summarizing yourself is difficult. So feel free to utilize the ask box if you have anything more specific you want to know.

Montevideo is pretty snazzy, even if it isn't the biggest city.

I'm going to South America tomorrow: Buenos Aires, Argentina and Montevideo, Uruguay. I just left a meh house party cause I was the only sober person and it sucked (in my defense I am sick). Now I'm on my way home to pack a suitcase. And eat some junk food...but what?

People in France have a phrase: “Spirit of the Stairway.” In French: Esprit de l’escalier. It means that moment when you find the answer, but it’s too late. Say you’re at a party and someone insults you. You have to say something. So under pressure, with everybody watching, you say something lame. But the moment you leave the party… As you start down the stairway, then — magic. You come up with the perfect thing you should’ve said. The perfect crippling put-down. That’s the Spirit of the Stairway. The trouble is even the French don’t have a phrase for the stupid things you actually do say under pressure. Those stupid, desperate things you actually think or do. Some deeds are too low to even get a name. Too low to even get talked about.

Someone cheer me up; I just started weeping at "New Slang" by The Shins and took an impressive trip down memory lane.

Sometimes I think I'm a brilliant writer and other times I think I'm shit.

Writing memoir is fucking hard and this shit sucks.
