“It felt like I was going to heaven, except I don’t believe in it… It doesn’t really bother me except for it’s forever. When I think about forever I get upset. Like the Land of Lakes butter has that Indian girl, sitting holding a box, and it has a picture of her on it, holding a box, with a picture of her on it, holding a box. Have you ever noticed that?”
- Sally Draper, “Blowing Smoke,” Mad Men (Season 4, Episode 12)
I spent a night alone in this part of town two nights ago, simply enjoying my exploration of a new city. I love the walking, the reading of menus on restaurant windows, the offers of weed from homeless men, the strumming of guitars next to weary dogs, the smells of breweries, the sketchiness of dingy and empty bars, the discovery of cheap bear and burgers and free wifi, the city bus that took me directly home.
When a man walks into a room, he brings his whole life with him. He has a million reasons for being anywhere, just ask him. If you listen, he’ll tell you how he got there. How he forgot where he was going, and that he woke up. If you listen, he’ll tell you about the time he thought he was an angel or dreamt of being perfect. And then he’ll smile with wisdom, content that he realized the world isn’t perfect. We’re flawed, because we want so much more. We’re ruined, because we get these things, and wish for what we had.

Careful, Peggy. I’m starting to care for you at a Leslie Knope level.
About Ach.
Studying opera in Bloomington, IN after an East Texas rearing and some good ol' edumacation in Nashville.
I like the theatre that exists in music. Or is it the music in theatre?
Oh, and good art, and books, and food, and mid-20somethings-intellectual-hipsterism (the prevalent philosophy filling the gap between grad school and the real world).
My other tumblr/2013 writing project:
