The Bullets
Okay, here are some update bullets.
- I received my lovely contributor copies of The Laurel Review today. I haven't read through it yet, but I'm looking forward to it. It still feels amazing to see my poems in the same journal with people like Albert Goldbarth, Jean Valentine, and Carl Phillips.
- Things in my living space are continuing to come together. I even put up curtains by myself with some trial and error. I feel so handy. Well, not really. I feel slightly handy. We also put up a closet rod. Sadly, I discovered that my ceiling is too low to hang my dartboard (it's a large dartboard), so we're putting that upstairs.
- I've been watching very little TV since I moved. Almost no Simpsons reruns, almost no Daily Show, almost no new shows. What I've watched has been House and NFL. Chuck seems like a light, fun show, though I've only seen one episode. Right now I have the third (and sadly final) season of Deadwood and the first season of 30 Rock on DVD.
- Quite a bit of ongoing reading: a new book of poetry I'm going to review; Tony Hoagland's Real Sofistikashun, which has a lot of interesting poetic ideas I think I'll mention on here at some point; The Truth About Money by Ric Edelman as I try to feel my way through investing; and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for the first time in years.
- It went from 80+ degrees two days ago to chilly and rainy today. At least it's proper October weather. Actually makes me happy.
- Sneak preview of my upcoming longer post: BAPAP. I will say no more.
- Anyone want to do a manuscript exchange? I have a chapbook manuscript and the full-length. I'm more interested in the full-length.

If you just want a reader, I will be more than happy to look at your full length manuscript. Don't worry about the trade, just send it along to me. You should have my yahoo address.
