and that was...

summer? holee shit. a few months gone down the memory hole...i was listening to a podcast today, called 'entitled opinions'--this particular episode focused on shakespeare. the host opened with some quotes from wittgenstein, who apparently couldn't deal with shakespeare--long story short, paraphrased, etc.; old ludwig was obsessed with a neat, categorical understanding of reality, whereas shakespeare presented a horizontal explosion of possibility--reality unfettered, so to speak.

what does this have to do with anything? well, and i may be stretching the analogy a bit, but i began the summer with the hope of having a very compartmentalized, constructive summer...and--it became debauchalypse 2010!!! hahaha...only partly true. the tenuous connection is this; what you plan to happen doesn't always happen...especially when you're like me--equipped with a sail that's ready to catch ANY prevailing wind.
