About Benb

Hi, all. Typing these very characters, I wonder if anyone is out there. (not like “out there,” because wow man i know). Seldom are people forewarned of the difficulties intrinsic to sustaining momentum while in solitude. There is a need for any readers of this to say things to me, so that I might respond to those said things. [...]

I have sworn in the past. And I did swear in the past that I would never resuscitate older blog posts. It’s been determined, however, that I should, because the archiving system on Blogger is something that my ritardando brain cannot grasp. As such and to this end, highlights of posts past will appear here over [...]

this is just too much i mean really I’ve had many posts be deleted surreptitiously by whatever this vile electronic imp is called so i’m switching hosts or what have you to wordpress but really know nothing about it oh, arse

July 19, 2011 Dear Things, Please go well. Thank you. Kind Regards, Benb

yet another potential job has vaporized i discovered that my existing part-time job has done so too, and my disability appeal was rejected on the basis of my improvement, forgoing examination of the years that i have spent ill and unemployable eww. a better tomorrow? definitely. one awaits.

I was doing so well with daiy posting but agggI’m going to go an hour away for a blood draw that will determinemy provisional eligibility for contracting progressive multifocal encephalopathy (the last word of which sounds rather like a done-up “snuffleupagus” mired in a clinical tragedy)

goodnight goodmorning hey: why is “goodnight” an accepted word, when other times of day are not afforded such treatment? (you can laugh at that, but it’s not a joke.) i’ve never been talented with Business Ideas. when some lame braggart will asserts that ”we’ve been in business since [the past]” in an attempt to establish credibility, [...]

oh, ack! my phone has been disconnected, and i would love not to take it personally, but i kinda do. at any rate, i’ll be mucking about with various muckery the whole moning through, so i just would like to say that i’ll be around later. but here are some good ideas on paper: soda [...]

every time an opportunity–for conviviality, economic stability, right livelihood, whatever-the-eff rambunctious semi-adventure–appears, i have a burst of energy that is, all too often, not commensurate with the opportunity. often, my enthusiasm is utterly unwarranted, and is squandered as a result. it’s like electrifying an inanimate object and expecting it to come to life in a unique [...]

While my head is not together sufficiently to post, I’ll just put poems on here. With any luck, I’ll be able to do actual blogtype writing soon. Here’s one: A DOZEN THINGS THAT I CHOSE NOT TO SAY TODAY Today I am aging and silly, aSpill giving way to a stain. Today we don’t know [...]

Sorry, people. There’s just too much that’s neither wheat nor chaff that it’s not even talkaboutable. I’ll try to post more consistently, but I seem to’ve misplaced my footing. Now, to sleep.

It is freeeeeezing cold outside, with winds that are nearing gales. We’re cowering indoors, I’m bored to tears, and cussing would be so much fun if it weren’t blanketed by the selfconsciousness of parenthood. I’d take Desmond and Ivor out somewheres, or go to see a movie if our wallet hadn’t been lost yesterday. I was [...]
