Adventures in Self-Loathing

Yeah, check out that hot stuff!

From right to left, you’ll find me, Chad, and a boy whose name I have since forgotten — we were models for Yak Pak back in November. Should you be so lucky to see the new Levi’s Yak Pak catalog, you’ll see that my ass is gracing its cover. Fabulous!

During my walk home from the Yak Pak office today, I noticed posters for the new movie, The Safety of Objects, which apparently is based on the collection of short stories by A.M. Homes, one of my favorite writers. Of course, this proves that I am indeed the most uninformed aspiring writer on the face of the earth.

Also encouraging is the giant poster announcing fellow SLC 2000 alum Clay Chapman’s new novel, Miss Corpus in the window at the Barnes and Noble at Astor Place. I met a friend there last weekend and stood right next to it in order to torture myself. It’s fabulous for Clay; maybe I should start doing whatever it was he did.

    Hey, there. I don’t know who wrote this… but, uh. I kind of just stumbled onto your web-page right now, and I guess I wanted to say… thanks. For the compliment on your diary. My name’s Clay and I went to SLC (as did you, I’m assuming?) and yeah, then the book-thing. Wish you would’ve come to the reading, though. Only like, ten/twenty people showed… But you got to start somewhere, right?

    Nothing personal Clay, but your success makes me want to kill myself. <3
