The whole staff just sang happy birthday to some guy in the kitchen. All the patrons are diner people. At least at this hour. Forks crash into plates and knives scrape butter and jam on toast. It’s the perfect volume. Want to read my book but too content. Want to get pancakes but trying to stay light. Dont want to feel it in my face.

I love pouring coffee and then pouring some more, I love encouraging orders of French toast for the table, I love wishing good morning to every one I see

thus far my “all-nighter” as the kids like to call em has proven successful…i made it to the 24 hour coffee stand. my drink is bitter, i can feel a couple hairs growing on my chest. I just might make it past 6am. Almost referenced Chris Chan referencing Star Trek but it’s for the best that I didn’t. the moon’s sitting pretty, and her allure nearly tricked me into getting my fix from DENNY’s..if only to add a little mischief to my night, by reason of staying out longer. Though im allowed to. I’m a big kid, I drive a car. but I nearly fell victim to that heavenly body and her treacherous spell..dennys has piss-thin coffee, and no crepes. I can’t commit adultery in my diner-marriage to ihop.. besides, my lil piece on the side is a role reserved for shari’s.. I’m listening to hatebreed. I like it when he yells .

There’s something more savory about snapping the book shut and you’re surrounded by the superior ~Reading Environment~ engulfed by perfectly muffled coffee shop music and the sound of beans grinding and milk frothing

And I want to post it here. It’s tasteful and it’s art. Do I have your consent to post it here?

My brother Andrew sent me a text with a link to a video posted by an aggregated content page, of Jack Black playing a toy saxophone on the Jimmy Fallon late night television show with the text reading “up your alley.” At one point in time this would have deeply upset me as this video is not up my alley. It’s not my sense of humor, nor is it of my interest, and worst of all it’s sincere. I think I curate and maintain a cool and authentic aesthetic but deep down I know what he means and he’s kinda right. Nobody knows you like those who knew you when you were 12 and there’s no fooling them.

I brought the blanket and pillows from my bed onto the living room couch. I brewed a cup of coffee and had a bowl of cold cereal. I’m sad  from private matters and tired from them too. I haven’t been able to watch sports at home in years. Haven’t had cable since I moved out of my parents. My buddy gave me his youtube tv login and I put on my favorite basketball team, The New York Knicks. I’ve become one with the couch, melted into the fibers and no club soda nor dog piss cleaner will dissolve me out. 3 quarters into this game and I’m feeling a thousand times better about the private and temporary matters which burden.
