last night...

met up with Kevin Kilroy (MFA Prose 05'/ Naropa) at the Catacombs to celebrate thesis...


soon in walks Sabrina Calle (BA Poetry 06'/ Naropa)


then Jeremiah Bowen (BA Poetry 06'/ Naropa)


then Adam Barker (MFA Prose 06'/ Naropa)


lot's and lot's of drinks and silliness ensues...lot's of talk about MTV's The Real World...lot's of talk about movies (Jeremiah wants to write a script about Jack Spicer...i told him Ron Howard's little brother would be perfect for the role)...lot's of talk (by me and Sabrina) about fashion and how most poets we know lack it "dude, he was rockin' jean shorts and white socks!!!"...Adam and i trying to convince Kevin that Neil Gaiman's The Sandman is some of the best contemporary mythology out there...lot's of talk about Charlie Kaufman and Philip Seymour Hoffman (Sabrina used to work for Hoffman, he just offered her another job in NYC...i'm like "can you hook my up too?"...)

last night was amazing...seriously, one of the best spent evenings i've had in Boulder since i moved here...a really great group of people who haven't gotten together like that in a while...i woke up this morning smiling, refreshed, psychologically replenished...to revert back to my raver days, last night was PLUR...

so, my friend Selena (who tends at the Catacombs) got great news from NYU...she's been accepted to their graduate film program! so tonight we were supposed to go to dinner and drinks to collectively celebrate NYU and thesis...only...i totally forgot about Akilah's birthday...so, i need to call Selena...Selena and i can't seem to catch a break...congratulations Selena, even though we can't be roommates in SF anymore (she also got into SF State's program)...you rock...


...currently listening to Dizzee Rascal Boy In Da Corner...

I second the comment about Gaiman's Sandman.
