Your noise overwhelms me. Shared space, intrusion on one another’s senses. Annoyance with insignificant details. Phone slammed, desk kicked, throat cleared. The sound of your keyboard clicking pounds in the back of my head. I don’t try hard enough to distance my warm feelings for you from your actions. My intolerance for the noise even [...]

I stuck around the office a little while and went across the street to Crush Wines & Spirits to buy a housewarming gift for my friend Christine.

Would you like to know how to win over this rara avis? Take me to the Foo Fighters show at the Fillmore (formerly Irving Plaza) on September 20th, 2007. Yes, I will be gushing over another man, but I’d be there with you. *sigh* Call me up whenever you want to grind.
