This morning I got a message from my past. I sent it on November 6th using a web site called FutureMe, which lets you send messages to your future you. I requested delivery for today, February 13th, 2008.
Here’s the message:
Dear FutureMe,
read this and post about it:

And so that’s what I’m doing. It’s appropriate for today, [...]

13Feb08Let Go
23Jan08So, I felt like crap Monday and Tuesday, and then sometime Tuesday got my feet under me and I’ve been feeling mostly OK since then.
I’m finding my happiness isn’t so much a function of how well things are going, but how much I’m trying to control the world. Ironically, the less I try to control [...]
Love, labours, lost.
22Jan08This was a very difficult Martin Luther King Day. Someone very important to me needed to tear me up this morning. Maybe I needed to be torn up. Truths needed to be told; screws tightened.
I spent the day surrounded by beautiful things: the words of Dr. King. People who love me. [...]
Beauty
28Nov07I just found some of Eleanor Davis’s comics. They’re just great. I read ‘The Island’ first and loved it. The woman is really beautiful to me, and it made me think about the way I depict bodies in my comics. It’s not really reflective of what I think about bodies, [...]
This is the end
21Jun07Dear Rice and Beans,
I don’t know how to say this any other way, so… I’m leaving you.
In the garbage.
I know it’s cliche, but: It’s not you. It’s me. I wish things were different. I love your veganness, and that you came from El Zarape, the best mexican restaurant in San Diego. [...]
Morning bell, release me
28May07Anxiety creeps up on me. I start reaching for comfortable things. I sit down amongst the web pages and browse. Someone is making homemade pizza. Someone is having friends over to sit around couches with their laptops and work on pet projects. Someone is going out dancing, flirting, kissing. [...]
This happened way back in Feburary, but it’s still a shining example of awesomeness, so I’m posting it as the second entry in my series on Awesome Things To Do In Life. Dan Zwonitzer, a republican state representative from Wyoming, stood up against a bill that would prevent the state from recognizing civil unions. [...]
To covet or not to covet
09Apr07I fell in love with a girl last summer, things went awry, and several months of heartbreak, confusion, and general patheticness ensued.
And recently I’m starting to feel pretty well sorted about the whole thing. Take one recent point of confusion:
She has a great long, sexy back… I’ve been painfully aware of that. Honestly, [...]
St. Valentine’s Curse
15Feb07In case you hadn’t guessed, I found my camera! It turns out I left it in Stephanie’s car after the reading at The Rubber Rose… which was awesome, by the way. It was a sort of book release party for The IHOP Papers, a novel by Ali Liebegott. I think it was [...]
Photo Update
27Jan07My computer is not importing photos lately, so I always end up saving them up and then posting them all at once from school. And then I have to write a big, rambly blog entry. But whatever.
Last week it was Kaya’s birthday and I made Falafel for her birthday dinner. Everything from [...]
